Need for the Course
"The United States currently has
low levels of adherence to the
Guidelines — only 20% of adults
and adolescents meet the
recommendations. This has health
and economic consequences for
the Nation. Nearly $117 billion
dollars in annual health care
costs and 10% of all premature
mortality are attributable to
failure to meet the levels of
aerobic physical activity
recommended in the Guidelines.
When we move
more, we have better
cardiovascular health, we are
stronger and less susceptible to
disease, and we feel better.
That’s why the updated Physical
Activity Guidelines for
Americans encourages leaders
across the Nation to take action
to help Americans fit more
physical activity into their
daily lives.
The
Physical Activity Guidelines is
an essential resource for health
professionals and policy makers.
It includes recommendations for
Americans ages 3 years and over
— including people at increased
risk of chronic disease — and
provides evidence-based advice
on how physical activity can
help promote health and reduce
the risk of chronic disease.
The Guidelines serves as the
primary, authoritative voice of
the federal government for
evidence-based guidance on
physical activity, fitness, and
health for Americans.
From the
Purpose and
Questions and Answers web
pages of the
Physical Activity
Guidelines for Americans.
