Overview:<\/h3>\n

Physical inactivity is linked to an increased risk of many non-communicable diseases including heart disease and yet almost half of US adults do not meet the recommended amount of physical activity. Many patients would like physicians to talk to them about physical activity. However, exercise medicine and physical activity promotion are lacking in the medical education curriculum. During this presentation Dr. Svec will briefly introduce exercise medicine and physical activity promotion. Dr. Svec will provide examples of exercise prescription which can be used to motivate patients to increase their activity level.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \u00a0Discuss physical inactivity and its correlation to health.<\/li>\n
  2. \u00a0Explain how to introduce exercise medicine and physical activity promotion into patient care.<\/li>\n
