Healthy People 2010 goal is to increase daily
physical activity by 30% in adults.
As of now 60% of the population is not active
enough
23- 29% not active during leisure time
Women report less physical activity during leisure
time compared to men
50% of youth are not vigorously active

Ranked 49th in Health this year when compared to other
states
We have the highest infant mortality among states – 10.5d
eaths/1000 live births highest in the country
27% above the average state for heart disease
Highest Heart Disease Rate 352.5 deaths per 100,000
population
Ranked 45th in all combined risk factors
Prevalence of smoking increased from 23.5% tp 25.3%
Infectious disease has increased from 27.3 o 35.2 cases per
100,000 population
Diseases associated with Lack of
Physical activity
Hypokinetic Disease
coronary heart disease
 hypertension
 hypercholesterolemia
 cancer
 obesity
 musculoskeletal disorders

Recommendation for
Physical Activity

Every U. S. adult should accumulate 30
minutes or more of moderate-intensity
physical activity on most, preferably all,
days of the week
Cardiovascular Disease
CVD responsible for more than 42% of all
deaths
 1/6th are under age 65
 one out of every four Americans have some
form of CVD

Unalterable
Risk Factors
Age
 Gender
 Race
 Heredity

Alterable Risk Factors
Obesity
 Diabetes Mellitus
 High Fat Diet
 Type-A Personality
 Physical Inactivity
 Cholesterol Level
 Low Levels of Cardiorespiratory Fitness
 High Blood Pressure

Coronary Heart Disease
(CHD)
CHD accounts for more deaths annually
than any other disease.
 Higher in Blacks than in Whites, Hispanics
has a lower prevelance than Whites.
 Caused by a lack of blood supply to the
heart muscle resulting from atherosclerosis.

Atherosclerosis
A progressive, degenerative disorder.
 result of a build up of fatty deposits and
plaque in the intima of the coronary artery
 restricts blood flow to the heart producing
angina
 can result in myocardial infarction

 occlusion
more
of the coronary arteries by 80% or
Hypertension
Most common form of CVD
 A persistent elevation of blood Pressure
 Normal <140 systolic / <90 diastolic
 Blacks and Hispanics have a greater
prevelance
 up to age 55 men have greater prevelance

Hypercholesterolemia
Smoking
Increases heart rate and blood pressure
 Inhibits naturally occurring anticoagulants
 May cause irregular heart beats or
arrythmias
 Increases risk of developing atherosclerosis

Diabetes Mellitus
90 - 95% of individuals with Diabetes have
type II or non-insulin dependent diabetes
 Usually the result of overeating and
underexercising
 Physical activity may reduce the risk of
NIDDM; and attenuate its affects

Negative consequences of
Obesity
