4: Move More
Being more physically active can help you lose
weight, keep it off, and improve your health. If
you're trying to be more active, it's important to
find activities you enjoy. You should also
consider how often you plan to be active, how
long you will go, and how hard you will push
yourself. Helpful strategies include setting
goals and monitoring your progress, choosing
to walk or bike instead of driving, and working
to make your environment friendlier to physical
activity.
What is Physical Activity?
Physical activity is any body movement that increases
your heart beat, causes you to breathe harder, and
requires more energy than you use while resting.
Exercise is any structured physical activity you do
specifically to improve health or fitness.
What are the Benefits of
Physical Activity?
Practically all people, including older Americans and
people with disabilities or health problems, can benefit
from being physically active. In general, the benefits far
outweigh the risks and can be achieved with as little as
75 minutes of physical activity each week, but more is
even better.
4: Muevase Más
El ser más activo le puede ayudar a perder peso,
no subir y mejorar su salud. Si usted está tratando
de ser más activo, es importante encontrar
actividades que a usted le gusten. Vea que tan
seguido planea ser activo, por cuanto tiempo y
que tanto se esforzará. Consejos para un buen
plan que le ayude a llegar a sus metas son ver
cuál ha sido su progreso, el elegir caminar o usar
su bicicleta en lugar de manejar el coche, y hacer
que su ambiente invite más actividad física.
¿Qué es Actividad Física?
Actividad física es movimiento del cuerpo que hace que los
latidos del corazón aumenten, causando respiraciones
más fuertes y que requiere de más energía de la que se
usa cuando se descansa. El ejercicio es cualquier
programa de actividad que usted hace para mejorar la salud
y la condición física.
¿Cuáles son los Beneficios de Actividad
Física?
Casi toda persona, incluyendo a los de edad avanzada y
personas con discapacidades o problemas de salud,
puede beneficiarse de ser más activos. En general, los
beneficios son más que los riesgos y se consiguen con tan
solo 75 minutos de actividad física a la semana, entre más,

How Hard Should I Push Myself?
When you think about physical activity, it's important to consider "intensity," or how hard you're pushing your
body.
One way to think about intensity is to ask how much your heart rate and breathing increase. Checking your pulse can help you
measure changes in your heart rate. The CDC provides information about how to measure your heart rate and how to understand
your measurement. Just paste this address into your web browser: http://link-shrink.com/14895
You can also rate the intensity of an activity on a scale of 0 to 10, where 0 is sitting and 10 is working as hard as you can. The same
activity might have different levels of intensity for different people. For example, brisk walking might be a light or moderate activity
for someone who is already active, but more intense and considered a vigorous activity for someone who is just getting started with
a physical activity routine.
Another way to think about intensity is to consider the amount of energy (calories) used by the body. Different types of activities burn
different amounts of calories. Your body weight affects how many calories you burn.

¿Cuánto esfuerzo debo poner?
Cuando piense sobre actividad física, considere la “intensidad”, o que tanto esfuerzo va a poner de su parte.
Una manera de pensar en la intensidad es considerar en que tanto esfuerzo hará su cuerpo para aumentar los latidos de corazón y
respiraciones. Revise su pulso para medir los cambios.
Puede medir la intensidad de una actividad usando la escala del 0 al 10, donde el 0 es estar sentado y el 10 es hacer actividad lo más
fuerte que pueda. La misma actividad puede tener diferentes niveles de intensidad para diferentes personas. Por ejemplo, caminar de
prisa puede ser cómodo para alguien que ya es activo, pero puede ser más intenso para alguien que acaba de iniciar una rutina de
actividad física.
Otra manera de pensar en la intensidad es mirar la cantidad de energía (calorías) que el cuerpo gastara. Hay diferentes actividades que
queman diferentes cantidades de calorías. Su peso afecta cuantas calorías gasta.

The terms "moderate" and "vigorous" activity describe the
intensity of exercise. Activities that are moderate-vigorous
do the most to improve your health.
Moderate Intensity:
·
·
·
Any physical activity that raises your heart rate and causes you to break a sweat.
You should be able to talk while doing a moderate intensity activity.
On a 10-point intensity scale, this is a 5 or 6.
Examples: brisk walking, water aerobics, riding a bike on level ground or with few hills, playing doubles
tennis, or pushing a lawn mower
Vigorous Intensity:
·
·
·
Any physical activity that increases your heart rate even higher and causes you to breathe hard.
At this level, you won't be able to say more than a few words without taking a breath.
On a 10-point intensity scale, this is a 7 or 8.
Examples: jogging or running, swimming laps, riding a bike fast or on hills, playing singles tennis, or
playing basketball.

goals and motivate you to continue challenging yourself.
Use the following tools to help you monitor your physical
activity.
Pedometer:
Measure how many steps you take now!

• Increase your steps by 250-500 per day until you reach your goal
A great goal for adults is 8,500 steps a day, and for kids, 12,000 steps a day.
Whatever goal you set, there are always benefits to increasing your daily steps.
Physical Activity Journal:
Use a physical activity journal to:
• Write down your physical activity or exercise goals

What is Active Transport?
One great way to increase your physical activity is to find active ways to get to work, to school, to the store, or to
any other place you go. Using "active transport" instead of driving can increase your activity levels, and may also
reduce your commuting costs and help the environment.
Here are some ways to use active transport to your advantage:
•
•
•
•
Walk or bicycle to work
Walk or bicycle with your children to school
Get off the subway or bus early and walk the remainder of the way
Run errands without your car—go to the post office, grocery, or bank on foot or bike
addressing obesity, physical inactivity and poor nutrition

¿Qué es Trasporte Activo?
Una manera de aumentar su actividad física es encontrando opciones
más activas para llegar al trabajo, escuela, la tienda o cualquier otros
lugares. Usando transporte activo en lugar de manejar puede aumentar
sus niveles de actividad, reducir sus costos de transporte, y ayudar el

ADVOCATES FOR A LIFESTYLE OF EXERCISE AND NUTRITION IN VENTURA COUNTY (A LEAN VC)
“This coalition had its beginnings in 2002 as the Chronic Disease Prevention Partnership sponsored by Ventura County Public Health. In
2003, Ventura County Public Health and several agencies .. formed the Ventura County Obesity Prevention Task Force (OPTF) in
response to the national, state and local public health crisis of obesity. In April 2008, the task force name was changed to A LEAN VC
(Advocates for a Lifestyle of Exercise and Nutrition in Ventura County) to reflect a broader vision to include health and wellness
throughout the life span. Partner organizations of A LEAN VC include the Community Commission for Ventura County (CCVC), Ventura
County Public Health, the Gold Coast Collaborative for Nutrition and Fitness and others representing schools, workplaces, health, and
social service providers.”
