2008 Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans At-A-Glance
U.S. Department of Health and Human Services
2
Physical Activity has a Profound Effect Upon Health Physical activity is one of the most
important steps people can take for their health.
3
Background
Americans are largely inactive. Many opportunities for physical activity
have been engineered out of daily life.
4
”“The Federal Government published
comprehensive Physical Activity
Guidelines for Americans for the first
time in 2008
Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans
5
Aims of the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans Stem the tide toward inactivity and its
consequences Move toward a prevention oriented
society
6
What Is New About the Guidelines?
First major science review in more than a decade.
Include a range of activity: “The more you do, the more benefits you gain.”
Specify a total amount of activity per week. People can design their own way to meet the Guidelines.
Address Americans over the age of 6 and specific subgroups.
7
Major Research Findings
Regular activity reduces risk of many adverse health outcomes
Some activity is better than none Added health benefits generally occur as
amount of activity increases Most health benefits require at least 2
hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity physical activity
8
Major Research Findings (cont.) Aerobic & muscle-strengthening activity
are beneficial Health benefits apply to people of all
types, sizes, and ages Health benefits occur for people with
disabilities Physical activity can be done safely.
Benefits far outweigh possible risks.
9
Benefits of Physical Activity
Adults who participate in any amount of physical activity gain some health benefits.
A total of 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) a week of moderate-intensity aerobic activity substantially reduces the risk of many chronic diseases and other adverse health outcomes.
As a person moves from 2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) a week toward 5 hours (300 minutes) a week, he or she gains additional health benefits.
10
Does Everyone Need the Same Amount of Physical Activity? The amount and type of activity needed
depends on: age; and special conditions
Many choices—“Be Active Your Way” means meeting the guidelines based on setting personal goals.
11
Key Guidelines – Children and Adolescents (ages 6–17) 1 hour (60 minutes) or more of daily
physical activity that is at least moderate: Most of the 1 or more hours a day should be
either moderate- or vigorous-intensity aerobic physical activity.
Do vigorous-intensity physical activity at least 3 days a week.
12
Key Guidelines – Children and Adolescents (ages 6-17) (cont.)
As part of 1 or more hours of daily physical activity, include muscle-strengthening activities at least 3 days a week.
As part of 1 or more hours of daily physical activity, include bone-strengthening activities at least 3 days a week.
It is important to encourage young people to participate in physical activities that are age appropriate, enjoyable, and offer variety.
13
Key Guidelines – Adults (ages 18–64) Minimum levels a week
2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) moderate-intensity aerobic activity; or
1 hour and 15 minutes (75 minutes) vigorous-intensity aerobic activity; or
An equal combination Muscle-strengthening activities that
involve all major muscle groups should be performed on 2 or more days of the week.
14
Key Guidelines – Adults (ages 18–64) (cont.) For additional health benefits
5 hours (300 minutes) moderate-intensity aerobic activity a week; or
2 hours and 30 minutes (150 minutes) vigorous-intensity aerobic activity a week; or
An equivalent combination
15
Key Guidelines – Older Adults (ages 65 years and older) Follow adult guidelines. When not possible,
be as physically active as abilities and conditions allow.
Do exercises that maintain or improve balance if at risk for falling.
Those without chronic conditions and symptoms (e.g., chest pain or pressure, dizziness, or joint pain) do not need to consult a health care provider about physical activity.
16
Additional Considerations
Other subgroups of the population in thePhysical Activity Guidelines for Americans
include: Persons with disabilities Women during pregnancy and the
postpartum period Adults with selected chronic conditions
17
Physical Activity Guidelines
For all individuals, some activity is better than none. More is better.
For fitness benefits, aerobic activity should be episodes of at least 10 minutes.
Physical activity is safe for almost everyone. The health benefits of physical activity far outweigh the risks.
18
What About Using Daily Activity Instead of Weekly for Adults? The current Guidelines recommend a
total amount of aerobic activity time per week.
The recommendation of doing 30 minutes of moderate physical activity on 5 days a week is one way to meet the minimum amount recommended.
19
What About Most People Who are Inactive? People Getting Started Should: Do what they can and then look for ways to
do more. Pick an activity they like that fits their lifestyle. Get support from friends & family. Gradually build up over time. Add more time,
then more days before increasing intensity of activity.

Evidence of
need for different physical activity recommendations based on race/ethnicity and/or SES?
Committee Member/Consultant/Liaison
Antronette (Toni) Yancey, MD, MPHUCLA School of Public Health
Shiriki Kumanyika, PhDUniversity of Pennsylvania
David Brown, PhDCenters for Disease Control
Significance Racial/ethnic and SES disparities in obesity and
chronic disease prevalence are robust Racial/ethnic disparities persist across SES
continuum, though race/ethnicity and SES highly confounded
Physical inactivity and sedentary behavior are implicated in these disparities across population subgroups, but racial/ethnic differences in the contribution of physical activity (PA) to obesity or specific disease outcomes have infrequently been systematically examined.

Questions:What types of differences could there be and what would they mean?
Differences in the energy cost of PA, such that some ethnic groups appear to derive lesser benefits for weight maintenance at the same level of PA because of racial differences in body morphology &, consequently, BMR (e.g., Ravussin et al., 1998)
Differences created by the influence of baseline PA, such that different approaches are necessary for ethnic groups having farther to go to reach PA goals, e.g., because of increased difficulty or exertion (e.g., Hunter et al., 2004)
Hunter, Weinsier, Zuckerman et al. Int J Obes Relat Metab Disord. 2004 28(9):1111-7.Ravussin, Lillioja, Knowler et al. N Engl J Med. 1988;318(8):467-72.
Questions:What types of differences could there be and what would they mean? (cont.)
Differences created by the influence of baseline physical inactivity or overweight status, such that different approaches are necessary for ethnic groups having farther to go to reach the goal, e.g., because of increased difficulty or exertion (e.g., Hunter et al., 2004)
Hunter, Weinsier, Zuckerman et al. Int J Obes Relat Metab Disord. 2004
28(9):1111-7.
Questions:What types of differences could there be and what would they mean? (cont.)
Differences in adherence (adoption, maintenance, resumption) to various types of PA, with implications for long-term sustainability and weight stability, as a result of different cultural values and preferences, environmental exposures, and social (in)justice issues (Estabrooks et al., 2003; Wolch et al., 2005; Day, 2006; Yancey et al., 2006b).

Questions:What types of differences could there be and what would they mean? (cont.)
Differences in accuracy of measurement of PA, i.e. inability of activity monitoring devices (e.g., device wearing time, equations/algorithms) or survey assessment tools (e.g., definition, interpretation, patterns) to adequately capture range or intensities of activities, such that research studies are unable to discern real differences in energy expenditure (Ainsworth et al., 2000; Whitt et al., 2003; 2004).

Literature Review
Gibson, Kirk and colleagues (2005): 86% of 231 articles in a meta-analysis of RCTs examining the effects of diet and exercise on weight- and fitness-related outcomes did not report race/ethnicity, compared with 11% and 4%, respectively, failing to report age and gender.
Studies that do not report race/ethnicity have overwhelmingly white samples.
Gibson, Kirk, LeCheminant et al. BMC Med Res Methodol 2005;5(1):9.
Literature ReviewYancey, Kumanyika and colleagues (2004): 600+ population-based inclusive PA and/or healthy nutrition
promotion or obesity control interventions published between 1970 and 2003
Selection criteria for literature review—US, targeted to ethnic minority group or inclusive of sufficient sample to permit ethnic-specific analyses
Various search strategies identified 23 studies implemented between 1972 and May 2003
Only 5 articles that targeted a “general audience” presented subgroup analyses by race/ethnicity
18 studies targeted one or more racial/ethnic minority groups; 9 of these resulted from a single CDC-funded California state health department initiative
Yancey, Kumanyika, Ponce et al., Prev Chronic Dis, 2004; 1:1-18 [E-pub].
Lesser Effectiveness of Key Environmental Interventions in
Underserved Groups: Culturally unacceptable strategy or poor marketing?
Posting of Signs Promoting Stair Usage1998 Overall, stair use increased from 4.8% to 6.9%, 7.2%,
depending upon which of 2 signs used Among whites, increased from 5.1% to 7.5%, 7.8% Among blacks, changed from 4.1% to 3.4%, 5.0% Among n’l wt, inc from 5.4% to 7.2%, 6.9% Among overwt, inc from 3.8% to 6.3%, 7.8%2006 Sign cult. targeting blacks worked in blacks & whitesAndersen, Franckowiak, Snyder et al., Ann Int Med, 1998;129:363-369.
MethodsUnwieldy to even find relevant evidence—for example: Energy balance search strategy employed by the CDC
generated 236 articles yielded 16, and PubMed generated 400 articles, yielding an additional 8.
Criteria—1) targeting an ethnic minority group or including subgroup analyses by ethnicity, not simply treating race/ethnicity as co-variate and adjusting for it; and 2) specifying the racial/ethnic minority groups included in the analyses, not aggregating in the analyses as “non-white;” and 3) having n >30 or at least 30 participants per study arm; and 4) having a “general audience” sample; and, if applicable, 5) physical activity was the dominant intervention component.
Race/ethnicity: Paucity of Evidence
Few studies targeting ethnic minorities were population-based, and very few compared racial/ethnic groups. Thus, findings may not be representative even of subgroups with similar socio-demographic characteristics.
There were disproportionately few studies of Latinos, currently the largest US minority group, and even fewer studies of American Indians, with their tremendous intra-ethnic heterogeneity from disparate tribal affiliations.
There were disproportionately few studies of Asian/ Pacific Islanders, especially given the heterogeneity by national origin. Most were non-domestic, introducing further contextual complexity.

Race/ethnicity: Conclusions There is insufficient evidence to conclude that PA
recommendations should be different for different racial/ethnic or SES groups
Most individuals from ethnic/gender and/or lower SES groups are relatively sedentary and overweight, such that the benefits of integrating small amounts of PA during the workday and school day should be explored because of promising but preliminary practice-based evidence of such benefits as decreased anxiety, weight stabilization, and injury prevention (e.g., Lara et al., 2008; IOM, 2006; Yancey et al., 2006; Mahar et al., 2006; Crawford et al., 2004; Pohjonen & Ranta, 2001; Pronk et al., 1995)

Race/ethnicity: Recommendations
Federally-funded studies should be powered to include sufficient representation of at least one ethnic/minority or lower SES population, with sufficient sample size to permit subgroup analyses by race/ethnicity or SES. Strict exemption criteria should be rigorously applied.
Race/ethnicity: Recommendations
Cultural proficiency of recruitment and retention approaches and adequacy of resources directed toward recruitment and retention should be scrutinized by grant review committee members with special expertise in this area, similar to the separate assessments of adequacy of study methods and analytical approaches by review committee statisticians.
Race/ethnicity: Recommendations
Federal program officers should manage and balance their portfolios to ensure that racial/ethnic differences in PA-related exposures and outcomes are under active investigation, utilizing RFAs and other mechanisms to direct funding toward disparities examination and elimination.
Race/ethnicity: Recommendations
Journals should require reporting of race/ethnicity, gender and SES of sample in the abstract as well as the body of the text.
Subgroup analyses should be requested when sample size is sufficient, and further data dis-aggregation encouraged to examine interactions between socio-demographic characteristics, e.g., gender-ethnicity, SES-ethnicity.
Race/ethnicity: Recommendations
Abstraction databases should include search criteria that permit ascertainment of inclusiveness, i.e. subgroup analyses by race/ethnicity or SES.

Study Design 3-armed, group-randomized, wait-list controlled
study design. “Cohort” Design
Sites were recruited, block randomized, and exposed to the intervention in 3 rolling cohorts of 9, 12, and 9 sites, respectively.
Recruitment Mechanism of recruitment: word-of-mouth,
professional networks, direct solicitation of organizational leaders
Sites enrolled that fit selection criteria and agreed to terms of the intervention (MOU).
Study Design, cont’d Randomization Process
Sites matched for target ethnic/gender composition, size, type of site (private vs. public)
Random number generator randomization into 3 treatment groups:
CONTROL : Wait listed, i.e. intervention delayed for 6 months
STANDARD: Strategies & materials focused on physical activity (PA) only.
COMPREHENSIVE: PA and healthy eating promotion.
Study Design, cont’d Baseline/Follow-up Assessments
Worksite Wellness Assessment: Instrument adapted from NY State “Heart Check”. Completed by representatives of 3 levels of organizational hierarchy—top level/CEO/ED, mid-management, support/line staff.
Individual Participant Questionnaire: Self-report survey completed by each participating employee.
Anthropomorphic Assessment: Research staff data collection from each participating employee—WC, BMI, syst. BP, CRF (heart rate recovery)
Assessments at baseline and 6-month follow-up.
Methods: Sample Organizational Level
Twenty-five (n=25) health and human services organizations (work units or sites) throughout southern and eastern Los Angeles
Private, non-profit community based organization (CBO) and Los Angeles County Dept. of Public Health work units
Work units of 10-50 staff members eligible for participation (enrollment mean=16; range 10-35)
Individual Level Full-time employees from each worksite were solicited for
voluntary participation Random selection of interested participants from each
worksite was attempted, but unsuccessful, producing convenience samples of 20%-80% of workers in a given site
