Active Adults
Whatever your age, being physically active can help you lead a happier, healthier life.
Movement looks different for everyone, from walking the dog to dancing in the kitchen. Every Move Matters - there is no wrong way to move, only your way. Everyone is encouraged to find their own way to move more and to recognise the strength they are building along the way.
- Every Move Matters - any movement is better than none, even short bouts of activity add up and contribute to overall health.
- Move More, sit less - break up long periods of sitting with light activity to reduce the risk of health issues like heart disease.
- Start small, build up - begin with what you can manage and gradually increase over time.
Adults aged 19-64 should aim to include both strength and aerobic activities in their weekly routine to maintain good health. If you enjoy being around others, consider a group activity or a gentle class and choose activities that feel achievable and fit into your daily routine.
