The American Council on Exercise (ACE) recently surveyed 1,000 ACE-certified personal trainers about the best techniques to get fit. Their top three suggestions:

Strength training. Even 20 minutes a day twice a week will help tone the entire body.
Interval training. In its most basic form, interval training might involve walking for two minutes, running for two, and alternating this pattern throughout the duration of a workout. It is an extremely time-efficient and productive way to exercise.
Increased cardio/aerobic exercise. Accumulate 60 minutes or more a day of low- to moderate-intensity physical activity, such as walking, running, or dancing.
