Document Summary

Physical activity and exercise in relation to health and fitness. How do we know that the human body is designed for physical activity and exercise: the body is highly adaptable. It adapts to a wide range of physical demands imposed by work or exercise: excessive sedentary behavior leads to decreased function capacity which results in poorer health, poor health leads to chronic disease, i. e. Cad and other heart diseases: generally, without physical activity previous societies would not have survived, physical activity has been a major force in the evolution of homo sapiens. Future predictions: worldwide 60% of deaths are attributed to chronic disease, this number is expected to grow in the future, keep in mind that chronic disease is preventable disease. What is the difference between (cid:494)cause of death(cid:495) and (cid:494)increased risk of death(cid:495): cause of death, he or she died of .
