Question

Find out the desired minimum levels of physical activities for children, adolescents, and adults in different age groups.

Answer 1

Minimum physical activity levels stated in the supplied material

Age group	Recommended minimum
Children and adolescents, 5–17 years	At least 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity physical activity every day. Include activities that strengthen muscles and bones at least 3 days a week. More than 60 minutes a day can provide additional benefits.
Adults, 18–64 years	At least 150 minutes of moderate-intensity activity across the week, or 75 minutes of vigorous-intensity activity, or an equivalent combination.

Adults can aim for 300 minutes of moderate-intensity activity per week for additional health benefits, and should do muscle-strengthening activities involving the major muscle groups on at least 2 days a week. The supplied material does not give recommendations for children under 5 or adults aged 65 and over.
