47 Consensus Public Health Recommendation for Physical Activity Statements from the American College of Sports Medicine/Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, American Heart Association, NIH, the US Surgeon General, and U.S. Dietary Guidelines 2005 conclude: All adults should accumulate at least 30 minutes of at least moderate intensity physical activity each day This is equivalent to walking about 1.5 miles at a pace of 3 to 4 mph Doing more exercise and perhaps more strenuous exercise may produce additional health benefits Resistance exercise provides health benefits

48 Fitness Prescription 3-5 days per week minutes, in one bout 60-90% max. heart rate (i.e., vigorous) Which is Right? Public Health Guide 5+ days per week Accumulate at least 30 minutes At least moderateintensity (e.g., brisk walk)

67 What Must We Do to Substantially Reduce the Number of Sedentary Adults? Continue the development of methods to increase the individual adoption and maintenance of regular physical activity Greatly increase creative approaches and research into the effects of legislation, public policy, social norm, and environmental changes on physical activity Develop media messages promoting physical activity that are as effective as the media messages aimed at getting us to buy products we do not need or want
