Due to the ever increasing concern for the public’s physical and mental health status, KYP can also provide training programs whereby individuals or families have been referred by their family doctor. Children and young people should achieve a total of at least 60 minutes of at least moderate intensity physical activity each day. At least twice a week this should include activities to improve bone health (activities that produce high physical stresses on the bones), muscle strength and flexibility.

The activity can be lifestyle activity* or structured exercise or sport, or a combination of these. More specific activity recommendations for adults are made for beneficial effects for individual diseases and conditions.  All movement contributes to energy expenditure and is important for weight management. It is likely that for many people, 45-60 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity a day is necessary to prevent obesity. For bone health, activities that produce high physical stresses on the bones are necessary. The recommendations for adults are also appropriate for older adults. older people should take particular care to keep moving and retain their mobility through daily activity. Additionally, specific activities that promote improved strength, co-ordination and balance are particularly beneficial for older people.

Current physical activity advice for adults – of 30 minutes of at least moderate intensity activity on at least 5 days a week – will represent a significant increase in energy expenditure for most people and will contribute to their ongoing weight management. However, in today’s sedentary society, and in the absence of a reduction in energy intake, 30 minutes’ activity a day on 5 or more days a week may not be enough to prevent the development of obesity for many people, and 45- 60 minutes of oderate intensity activity per day may be needed. People who have been obese and have managed to lose weight may need to do 60- 90 minutes’ activity a day in order to avoid regaining weight. Also, activity that can be incorporated into everyday life may be as effective for weight loss as structured, supervised exercise programmes. This broadens the range of effective choices available for increasing activity among the general public.
