Lots more steps needed to meet PA guidelines

With the support of the Public Health Agency of Canada, the Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology released new physical activity guidelines. To achieve health benefits, Canadians 18 years and older are encouraged to accumulate 150 minutes of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity a week in bouts of 10 minutes or more, along with strength training on at least two days/week. People 65 years and older are encouraged to add balance activities if they have mobility challenges.
