    • Primary risk factors: hypertension, hyperlipidemia, smoking, inactivity
    • Secondary risk factors: stress, obesity

    Diabetes

    • Diabetes is a group of diseases characterized by persistently high levels of glucose in the blood
    • Type 1 diabetes: autoimmune disease where the immune system destroys insulin-making beta cells
    • Type 2 diabetes: insulin production is deficient or the body cannot use insulin effectively
    • Gestational diabetes: occurs during pregnancy with type 2 characteristics
    • Physical activity is important in blood sugar regulation
      • Type 1 diabetes: daily activity, avoid "heavy" workouts in injected muscle areas
      • Type 2 diabetes: 3-5 times per week, with 40-60% aerobic capacity, up to 60 continuous minutes

    Cancer

    • Cancer refers to diseases characterized by the uncontrollable growth and spread of abnormal cells
    • Lifestyle behaviors increasing cancer risk: low levels of physical activity, excessive sedentary time
    • Physical activity reduces cancer risk by: regulating energy balance, maintaining body weight, maintaining physical fitness, mechanical regulation, immune system functioning, and hormonal regulation
    • Physical activity suggestions for prevention, treatment, recovery, and post-treatment (details on frequency, intensity, time, and type for each stage)

    Musculoskeletal Health

    • Musculoskeletal health refers to the overall well-being of our skeletal muscles
    • Includes muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, joints, and associated tissues that allow body movement
    • Core body endurance exercises include yoga, push-ups, curl-ups, and other full-body exercises
    • Musculoskeletal strength and balance are crucial for maintaining posture and preventing falls

    Bone Health

    • Bone health is about attaining and maintaining a strong skeleton
    • Early adulthood requires developing and maintaining bone density
    • Older adults primarily maintain bone density
    • Osteoporosis is a disease characterized by low bone mass and deterioration of bone tissue, increasing the risk of fracture

    Managing Stress with Physical Activity

    • Physical activity is an effective stress management tool, impacting both acute and long-term effects
    • Acute effects: releases endorphins, mood-enhancing, pain reducing
    • Long-term effects: physically fit body clears stress-related chemicals faster

    Mental Health

    • Physical activity can reduce depressive symptoms (mild to moderate)

    • Evaluate lifestyle choices that reflect active living
    • Identify the impacts of physical activity on morbidity and mortality
    • Identify the health risks of excessive sedentary behaviours
    • Analyze common supports and barriers to physical activity

    Physical Activity Recommendations

    • Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology guidelines for adults aged 18-64:
      • Obtain at least 2.5 hours of moderate-to-vigorous-intensity physical activity per week, in bouts of 10 minutes or more
      • Add muscle, and bone strengthening activities using major muscle groups, at least 2 days per week
    • Moderate-intensity: 40-60% aerobic capacity, 50-70% maximum heart rate
    • Vigorous-intensity: 60-80% aerobic capacity, 70-85% maximum heart rate

    Active Living

    • Active living is choosing movement whenever possible
    • Using stairs instead of elevators, walking/biking instead of driving
    • Engaging in active recreational activities like hiking, playing sports, and taking active dates

    Active Transportation

    • Using own energy to travel is faster in cities (walking 2 km or less, cycling 10 km or less)
    • Only 6-7% of Canadians walk to work and 1% cycle to work

    Exercise

    • Physical activity is any bodily movement engaging skeletal muscles and expending calories
    • Physical fitness is the ability to perform daily tasks with energy left over for emergencies
    • Divided into health- (e.g., cardiorespiratory endurance) related or performance-related (e.g., power) components
    • Exercise is an intentional and repetitive movement to improve or maintain health-related and performance-related fitness components
