3. Physical Activity and the Body For example:
Getting 30 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous physical activity daily, cuts the risk of cancer by 45%.
4. Physical Activity and Cancer Mortality Moderate activity = 30+ minutes, 5+ days per week.
Vigorous activity = 20+ minutes, 3+ times per week.
Moderate and vigorous, both requirements met.

5. Physical Activity and the Body One more example:
Getting 30 minutes or more of moderate to vigorous physical activity daily, cuts the risk of stroke by two-thirds!
6. Physical Activity & Stroke Risk Data from the Aerobic Research study. 16,878 men were tested on a treadmill to determine fitness levels. Follow-up was 10 years. Men who were moderately fit had 63% fewer strokes than low fit men. High fit men had 68% fewer strokes. These results are after adjusting for common stroke risk factors.
Regular physical activity is a strong protector against the risk of stroke.
Average peak aerobic capacity for the three fitness levels were:
Low fit = 8.8 METS
Moderately fit = 10.5 METS
Highly fit = 13.1 METS
Notice that most of the benefit from regular physical activity occurred in the moderately fit group.
Exercise may protect against stroke by: helping maintain a healthy weight, lower blood pressure, improved blood lipids, improved sensitivity to insulin, blood coagulation and platelet aggregation, fibrinolysis, and antioxidant defense systems, all of which influence the risk of stroke.

7. Physical Activity Also Cuts your risk of high blood pressure
Reduces risk of heart disease by 50%
Reduces your risk of diabetes by 50%
Improves mood and decreases risk of depression and anxiety
Builds stronger bones preventing fractures
Improves immunity
Gives you more energy
Helps with weight control
Enabling you live a longer, fuller, happier life
8. Activity and Death from Any Cause This chart shows the dramatic decrease in mortality from any cause as people get more regular exercise, increasing their level of fitness. Shown here are fitness quintiles from maximal treadmill testing. Notice that those getting little or no regular activity (quintile 1) had the highest mortality rate. Also notice that even some regular exercise (quintile 2) shows a remarkable drop in mortality. Persons getting the most exercise (quintile 5) cut their risk of death from any cause by 73% even after adjusting for age, sex, smoking, abnormal ECG, health problems, and BMI.

9. Physical Activity is Good Medicine All who can possibly do so ought to walk in the open air every day, summer and winter.
A walk, even in winter, would be more beneficial to the health than all the medicine the doctors may prescribe.
E.G.White, Counsels on Health, 52 In summary, physical activity is strong medicine.
This is a classic quote from nearly a 100 years ago, health advice written in the late 1900s. I believe it sums up the benefit of physical activity very nicely.In summary, physical activity is strong medicine.
