What are your barriers to exercise?

A national omnibus survey commissioned by the American College of Sports Medicine found that 94 percent of Americans feel a national physical activity plan is important in helping to avoid chronic conditions and diseases and that 97 percent of Americans think changes in the health care system must provide disease prevention through physical activity.


Yet less then 30% of Americans exercise at a level that is sufficient to induce positive health changes. We have been successful at increasing awareness of the benefits of physical activity on health, now our work focuses on the the next steps of behavior change.

Take this short quiz (and share it with your friends, family, neighbors, and colleagues) to help identify and understand what barriers may be preventing you from enjoying a more physically active lifestyle.
