Hello everyone and welcome to
Be More Physically Active!

  • People should be physically active for a total of 30 minutes every day.
  • Brisk walking is a simple activity almost everyone can do.
  • There are ways to fit more activity into a busy schedule.

I'm feeling more energetic just talking about it!
