This unique resource digests the literature to give you the low down on exercise: how much, how often, depending on your age and fitness. Although there is enormous amounts of information available regarding physical activity, there is no single source primarily dedicated to providing guidelines and recommendations. In this book, a comprehensive overview of the current guidelines from national and international organisations is clearly presented, along with helpful information to implement these recommendations. The book covers physical activity recommendations for individuals beginning in infancy all the way through older adulthood. Specific activity recommendations for individuals with diseases ranging from diabetes, asthma, osteoporosis and osteoarthritis as well as cerebral palsy and other disabilities are also presented. This really is the definite guide for exercise scientists, personal trainers, students and medical practitioners.
