 Read the following text carefully.

Physical Activity for Everyone: The Importance of Physical Activity

The evidence is growing and is more convincing than ever!

People of all ages who are generally inactive can improve their
health and well-being by becoming active at a moderate-
intensity on a regular basis.
Regular physical activity substantially reduces the risk of
dying of coronary heart disease, the nation's leading cause of
death, and decreases the risk for stroke, colon cancer,
diabetes, and high blood pressure. It also helps to control
weight; contributes to healthy bones, muscles, and joints; reduces falls among
older adults; helps to relieve the pain of arthritis; reduces symptoms of anxiety
and depression; and is associated with fewer hospitalizations, physician visits,
and medications. Moreover, physical activity need not be strenuous to be
beneficial; people of all ages benefit from participating in regular, moderate-
intensity physical activity, such as 30 minutes of brisk walking five or more times
a week.
Despite the proven benefits of physical activity, more than 50% of American
adults do not get enough physical activity to provide health benefits. 25% of
adults are not active at all in their leisure time.
Activity decreases with age and is less common among women
than men and among those with lower income and less
education.
Insufficient physical activity is not limited to adults. More
than a third of young people in grades 9–12 do not regularly
engage in vigorous-intensity physical activity. Daily
participation in high school physical education classes
dropped from 42% in 1991 to 32% in 2001.
