PHYSICAL ACTIVITY GUIDELINES According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, everyone 6 years old and older need to participate in some physical activities. These are the facts about activity and outcomes: • Regular physical activity reduces the risk of many adverse health outcomes. • Some physical activity is better than none. • For most health outcomes, additional benefits occur as the amount of physical activity increases through higher intensity, greater frequency, and/or longer duration. • Most health benefits occur with at least 150 minutes (2 hours and 30 minutes) a week of moderate intensity physical activity, such as brisk walking. Additional benefits occur with more physical activity. • Both aerobic (endurance) and muscle-strengthening (resistance) physical activity are beneficial. • Health benefits occur for children and adolescents, young and middle-aged adults, older adults, and those in every studied racial and ethnic group. • The health benefits of physical activity occur for people with disabilities.

About Washington County Wellness Initiative The Washington County Wellness Initiative (WCWI) is a County Health Improvement Organization (CHIO) certified through the Public Health Improvement Organization (PHIO). We have four main focus areas defined during the Mobilizing for Action through Planning and Partnerships (MAPP) process in 2005-2010. Our focus areas are Healthcare, Lifestyle/Prevention, Mental Health, and Poverty. Based on these four focus areas, nine workgroups and/or coalitions and/ or projects were developed with assistance from the Washington County Health Department (WCHD). The WCWI CHIO is now the “umbrella” organization providing a protective “shield” for each of the workgroups. The WCWI staff currently consists of a volunteer coordinator and three part-time contractors to oversee the workgroups and manage the administrative efforts of the WCWI. The WCWI has three officers who comprise the Network Governing Board.
