The Importance of Physical Activity

The Garth Delikan Online Academy

Physical Activity

The onset of the technical revolution has conspired to strip out of our lives physical activity in the name of convenience, efficiency and saving time. Everything from remote controls to moving stairs combine with a plethora of mechanised devices such as motor vehicles, washing machines, dishwashers, power tools, and a whole host of gadgets and machines to take the effort out of almost everything that we do.

As a consequence most of us are now half as active as our parents, and what is worse, our children are set to become half as active as we are. Our bodies were designed to be active and by leading sedentary lives we are creating immense health and social problems for ourselves.
