Physical Activity - The Facts
|
 |
Physical inactivity has been described
as the ‘silent killer of our time’.
|
Lack of physical activity is one of the biggest causes of illness and death in the UK and increasing activity levels is now a priority for many national and local organisations.
People who are active are more likely to live longer, enjoy more healthy years of life and remain independent. |
|
The NHS recommend that we should be doing 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on most days of the week.
|
 |
| A good guide to the term “moderate activity” is that we should be slightly out of breath but still be able to talk and feeling warmer. |
