Analysis of physical activity surveys across 168 countries and encompassing 1.9 billion people has found that an astonishing 1.4 billion adults aren’t getting enough exercise – and that figure hasn’t changed since 2001.
The results were compiled by researchers from the World Health Organisation and published in The Lancet Global Health journal after they analysed 358 surveys worldwide. Sufficient exercise was defined as performing at least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity physical
activity per week.
