According to 'Our Healthier Nation: Saving
Lives', 6 out of 10 men and 7 out of 10 women are not physically
active enough to benefit their health.
Coronary Heart Disease and Stroke, along with Other Diseases
of the Circulatory System, account for over 200,000 deaths
in the UK each year. By not participating in the recommended
levels of physical activity (30 minutes of moderate exercise
5 times per week) You are at:
- Twice the Risk of Getting Coronary Heart Disease and
- Three Times the Risk of Suffering a Stroke
