Physical Activity
Explanation
Physical Activity is essential for the health and wellbeing of both young people and
adults alike. Whatever form it takes - walking, jogging, swimming, cycling, dancing
to name but a few - the heart needs to exercise and physical activity gives it the
work out required. While typically we tend to be less active as we grow older, now
lifestyles even for the young are becoming more sedentary. Yet the importance of
maintaining regular exercise at any age, cannot be overemphasized and the disastrous
affects of chronic inactivity are too numerous to mention.
Action
If you're resuming exercise after a long lay off, we recommend you start with walking.

Recently we've seen the England cricketer, Darren Gough, win the Strictly Ballroom
competition and talk about the change to his life and health through this form of
activity. Take control of your life now and make the first step to a healthy
lifestyle. To really enhance your wellbeing, review your nutritional intake. When
you combine Physical Activity with healthy eating the results can be truly awesome.
