Pacific physical activity and sedentary behaviour guidelines for everyone

Overview

Physical activity is critical to human health. Regular physical activity helps to prevent and manage a variety of health conditions, improves mood and sleep, boosts energy, and supports healthy ageing. Adopting a healthy lifestyle that includes regular physical activity is one of the most important things that people can do to improve health and well-being.

These guidelines include recommendations for the minimum necessary levels of physical activity and recommendations for reducing sedentary behaviour in order to improve health outcomes. More is better.
