Canadian youth physical activity and health risk factors
Data show obesity and overweight in children correlate with low activity levels and reduced fitness. Only 766 of 15,000+ Canadian schools have CAHPERD recognized QDPE programs. Just 10 percent of youth meet optimal activity levels. TV viewing exceeds 26 hours weekly plus school time. Regular activity in youth lowers osteoporosis risk later and ties to healthier behavior, while increased activity in 1981–1991 saved 4.4 billion in health care costs.
