Widespread persistent inactivity makes continued efforts in physical activity promotion a persistent challenge. The precise content of physical activity recommendations is not broadly known, and there are concerns that the general messaging of the guidelines, including the recommendations to perform at least 150 min of at least moderate intensity physical activity per week might seem unattainable for and even actually discourage currently inactive people. Here we show that there are a myriad of ways of being physically active, and provide (in part) out-of-the-box examples of evidence based, pragmatic, easily accessible physical activity regimes below 150 min and/or with lower than moderate intensity that yield meaningful health benefits for currently inactive people.
广泛存在的持续不活跃使得持续努力促进身体活动成为一个持久的挑战。身体活动建议的确切内容并不广为人知,人们担心这些指南的总体信息,包括每周至少进行 150 分钟至少中等强度的身体活动的建议,对目前不活跃的人来说似乎是无法实现的,甚至实际上可能会使他们望而却步。在这里,我们展示了有无数种进行身体活动的方式,并提供了一些不在常规思维内的、基于证据的、实用的、容易获得的身体活动方案的例子,这些方案的活动时间都低于 150 分钟,或者强度低于中等强度,但对目前不活跃的人来说,却能带来有意义的健康益处。
