Elevance Health Foundation and American College of Sports Medicine Unveil the 2023 ACSM American Fitness Index Ranking
“Unfortunately, Americans are still not moving enough,” said Volpe. “This underscores the need for local community leaders to step up and make bold spending choices, policy decisions and infrastructure changes to increase opportunities for residents to be physically active and healthy.”

Among U.S. Latinos, regular moderate-to-vigorous physical activity has health benefits even for those with heart disease risk factors. An active lifestyle may blunt the link between advancing age and worsening heart health.

Why moving fast 3 minutes a day can lower your #cancerrisk. People who regularly rushed up stairs or hurried to catch a bus were about 30 percent less likely to die of many types of cancer than people who dawdled. https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamaoncology/fullarticle/2807734 Vigorous Intermittent Lifestyle #PhysicalActivity and #Cancer Incidence Among Nonexercising AdultsThe UK Biobank Accelerometry Study

#afluenza Vs #walkablecities: The vast majority of new #diabetes cases in the next three decades are projected to be #Type2. We expect the two primary #drivers will be #aging #populations and increases in #obesity. In 2021, obesity was the most important risk factor for Type 2 diabetes, accounting for more than half of #disability and #death from the #disease.

Moderate-to-vigorous physical activity and living in a neighborhood conducive to physical activity were associated with an increased likelihood of sunburn among parents, despite protective behaviors (sunscreen, hats, long sleeves etc.).

Running throughout Middle-Age Keeps Old Adult-Born Neurons Wired
Long-term running maintains the wiring of “old” new neurons, born during early adulthood, within a network that is important for memory function during aging in mice.

Running Rewires the Aging Brain: Exercise Protects Memory Function
Physical activity, particularly running, has been found to rewire aging brains, helping to preserve memory functions.
Long-term running keeps older neurons wired, potentially preventing age-related memory loss and neurodegeneration.
