    it totally depends on the definition of 'healthy' according to you.
    20 min/day workout is enough if u want to be active and burn extra calories, you can play football, have jog or some workout at your home.But if u want to maintain your physique i have to say that it is not enough, at least u should spend 45 minutes in gym.

      Yeah, like that's a useful comment. A blank space would have served the same purpose.

    A 20 minutes workout every day is a good start and a healthy habit that you can build on. It will get you in the habit of doing something good for your body each and every day. Also, a 20 minute workout can be made effective with something like interval training, alternating walking and running for example.

    Twenty minutes per day and five days a week of exercise regime which includes aerobic exercises or brisk walking is good for the heart and in advised in people with diabetes or hypertension.
    Exercise regimes depend on your age and fitness level you have before.The intensity of training should always be increased in a graded manner and if you have any pre existing medical conditions you should consult your doctor before you begin for your own safety.
    If you are a young healthy individual you can exercise for more than twenty minutes.
    The time you devote at the gym, the discpline you have  and the intensity of your training will reflect in your results.

    Well it depends upon your goals, if your goals are just to stay fit then I would say 20 minutes a day is enough. If you are planning on gaining some muscle mass while staying fit and lean then 30 to 45 minutes of weight training 3 to 4 days a week and cardio for 20-30 minutes 2 times a week will be enough.

    It honestly depends on your own goals. Any type of exercise for 20 minutes a day can lead to more than just physical health benefits.

    For example, exercising can also provide mental health benefits. Exercising can help fight against depression and stress, improve memory and thinking, boost your overall mood, energy, and self-confidence.

    The best part is, this can really apply to any exercise, from cardio to yoga to just stretching.

    Just walking for 15 minutes every day and not getting additional physical activities is unlikely to result in significant weight loss. Yet, this short daily exercise, however, is still healthier than none or being sedentary. A little exercise daily can boost your health and overall well-being in many ways. As a result of the research, the organization made several recommendations. They advised that you get between 150 and 250 minutes of moderate to vigorous exercise each week to lose weight. 1 That's roughly 15 to 20 minutes of exercise per day to lose weight. But they also state that more is better.
