Physical activity is good for you!
The Department of Health and Human Services has just released the report of a committee that has just spent the last two years reviewing research on the benefits and risks of physical activity for specific population groups. Guess what? It’s good for you! And to summarize all that research: some is better than none, more is better than less, higher intensity is better than lower intensity. The “some is better than none” part should be an inspiration to everyone to get out there and start moving.
