Sure, lift what weights you can, and run or bike or some other higher intensity sport, whatever you can do and want to do. So that's maybe 4-6 hours a week at best for most people. So fill in the other 5-15 hours a week walking in the park. That's like maybe 30-60min a weekday, and the rest on a weekend day hike.
