APPROPRIATE POPULATIONS: Multi-ethnic, Adults, Older Adults, Parents, and Sedentary Adults Initiating Exercise

READING LEVEL (SMOG): 8th Grade

PUBLICATION DATE: 2002

Comments:
This material is intended for adults of all ages and ethnicities who wish to start a walking program. The brochure recommends gradually increasing walking time to 30-40 minutes of brisk walking. It lists the benefits of walking and advises persons how to measure their target heart rate. The 8th grade reading level of this brochure is appropriate for most adults and the layout is appealing. Overall this brochure does a good job of making walking more appealing, but could do a better job stressing the importance of accumulating 30 minutes of physical activity each day.
