E.g. Upper body led activities, inclusive and\/or wheelchair-specific sport and activities.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Benefits and risks of physical activity and sedentary behavior\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Regular physical activity, such as walking, cycling, wheeling, doing sports or active recreation, provides significant benefits for health. Some physical activity is better than doing none.<\/p>\n<p>By becoming more active throughout the day in relatively simple ways, people can easily achieve the recommended activity levels.<\/p>\n<p>Physical inactivity is one of the leading risk factors for noncommunicable diseases mortality. People who are insufficiently active have a 20% to 30% increased risk of death compared to people who are sufficiently active.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Regular physical activity can:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>improve muscular and cardiorespiratory fitness;<\/li>\n<li>improve bone and functional health;<\/li>\n<li>reduce the risk of hypertension, coronary heart disease, stroke, diabetes, various types of cancer (including breast cancer and colon cancer), and depression;<\/li>\n<li>reduce the risk of falls as well as hip or vertebral fractures; and<\/li>\n<li>help maintain a healthy body weight.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In children and adolescents, physical activity improves:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>physical fitness (cardiorespiratory and muscular fitness)<\/li>\n<li>cardiometabolic health (blood pressure, dyslipidaemia, glucose, and insulin resistance)<\/li>\n<li>bone health<\/li>\n<li>cognitive outcomes (academic performance, executive function)<\/li>\n<li>mental health (reduced symptoms of depression)<\/li>\n<li>reduced adiposity<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In adults and older adults, higher levels of physical activity improves:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>risk of all-cause mortality<\/li>\n<li>risk of cardiovascular disease mortality<\/li>\n<li>incident hypertension<\/li>\n<li>incident site-specific cancers (bladder, breast, colon, endometrial, oesophageal adenocarcinoma, gastric and renal cancers)<\/li>\n<li>incident type-2 diabetes<\/li>\n<li>prevents of falls<\/li>\n<li>mental health (reduced symptoms of anxiety and depression)<\/li>\n<li>cognitive health<\/li>\n<li>sleep<\/li>\n<li>measures of adiposity may also improve<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>For pregnant and post-partum women\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><em>Physical activity confers the following maternal and fetal health benefits: a decreased risk of:<\/em><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>pre-eclampsia,<\/li>\n<li>gestational hypertension,<\/li>\n<li>gestational diabetes (for example 30% reduction in risk)<\/li>\n<li>excessive gestational weight gain,<\/li>\n<li>delivery complications<\/li>\n<li>postpartum depression<\/li>\n<li>newborn complications,<\/li>\n<li>and physical activity has no adverse effects on birthweight or increased risk of stillbirth.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Health risks of sedentary behaviour<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Lives are becoming increasingly sedentary, through the use of motorized transport and the increased use of screens for work, education and recreation.<\/p>\n<p>Evidence shows higher amounts of sedentary behaviour are associated with the following poor health outcomes:<\/p>\n<p><strong>In children and adolescents:\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>increased adiposity (weight gain)<\/li>\n<li>poorer cardiometabolic health, fitness, behavioural conduct\/pro-social behaviour<\/li>\n<li>reduced sleep duration<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>In adults:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>all-cause mortality, cardiovascular disease mortality and cancer mortality<\/li>\n<li>incidence of cardiovascular disease, cancer and type-2 diabetes.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Levels of physical activity globally<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>More than a quarter of the world\u2019s adult population (1.4 billion adults) are insufficiently active<\/li>\n<li>Worldwide, around 1 in 3 women and 1 in 4 men do not do enough physical activity to stay healthy.<\/li>\n<li>Levels of inactivity are<\/li>\n<li><\/li>\n<li>twice as high in high-income countries compared to low-income countries,<\/li>\n<li>There has been no improvement in global levels of physical activity since 2001<\/li>\n<li>Insufficient activity increased by 5% (from 31.6% to 36.8%) in high-income countries between 2001 and 2016.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Increased levels of physical inactivity have negative impacts on health systems, the environment, economic development, community well-being and quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>Globally, 28% of adults aged 18 and over were not active enough in 2016 (men 23% and women 32%).<\/p>\n<p>This means they do not meet the global recommendations of at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity, or 75 minutes vigorous-intensity physical activity per week.<\/p>\n<p>In high-income countries, 26% of men and 35% of women were insufficiently physically active, as compared to 12% of men and 24% of women in low-income countries.<\/p>\n<p>Low or decreasing physical activity levels often correspond with a high or rising gross national product.<\/p>\n<p>The drop in physical activity is partly due to inaction during leisure time and sedentary behaviour on the job and at home.<\/p>\n<p>Likewise, an increase in the use of \u201cpassive\u201d modes of transportation also contributes to insufficient physical activity.<\/p>\n<p>Globally, 81% of adolescents aged 11-17 years were insufficiently physically active in 2016.<\/p>\n<p>Adolescent girls were less active than adolescent boys, with 85% vs. 78% not meeting WHO recommendations of at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous intensity physical activity per day.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How to increase physical activity?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Countries and communities must take action to provide everyone with more opportunities to be active, in order to increase physical activity.<\/p>\n<p>This requires a collective effort, both national and local, across different sectors and disciplines to implement policy and solutions appropriate to a country\u2019s cultural and social environment to promote, enable and encourage physical activity.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Policies to increase physical activity aim to ensure that:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>walking, cycling and other forms of active non-motorized forms of transport are accessible and safe for all;<\/li>\n<li>labour and workplace policies encourage active commuting and opportunities for being physically active during the work day;<\/li>\n<li>childcare, schools and higher education institutions provide supportive and safe spaces and facilities for all students to spend their free time actively;<\/li>\n<li>primary and secondary schools provide quality physical education that supports children to develop behaviour patterns that will keep them physically active throughout their lives;<\/li>\n<li>community-based and school-sport programmes provide appropriate opportunities for all ages and abilities;<\/li>\n<li>sports and recreation facilities provide opportunities for everyone to access and participate in a variety of different sports, dance, exercise and active recreation; and<\/li>\n<li>health care providers advise and support patients to be regularly active.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>WHO defines physical activity as any bodily movement produced by skeletal muscles that requires energy expenditure.
