50 Great Reasons to Exercise

PRODUCED BY: Journeyworks Publishing

TYPE OF MATERIAL: Tri-fold pamphlet

APPROPRIATE POPULATIONS: Multi-ethnic, Adults, Sedentary Individuals Initiating Exercise

READING LEVEL (SMOG): 7th Grade

PUBLICATION DATE: 1996

Comments:
This material promotes the current physical activity message for US adults while also promoting lifelong physical activity. The material presents the physical activity message by numbering fifty great reasons to exercise. While every reason listed is factual, the authors used creativity and humor to keep the pamphlet from being boring. The reading level for this material, which is at a 7th grade level, is slightly inflated due to the phrase "physical activity" being used frequently. Overall, this is an adequate piece of material that presents fifty great reasons to exercise in a clear way, but it fails to give specific physical activity information.
