PUBLICATION DATE: 1999

Comments:
This material promotes long-term maintenance of a physically active lifestyle in individuals who are currently active on a regular basis. The most appropriate population for this material is adults who are currently active. The level of physical activity being promoted is good with added emphasis on various strength building and flexibility exercises. Simple healthy eating tips for added energy are also included which adds to the overall health message. Excellent tips for promoting a lifelong physical activity program are provided as well. The organization of the message being promoted is good with key points being clear at first glance and supporting text being easy to follow. The 8th grade reading level makes this material fairly easy to comprehend and follow. The limited illustrations along with the focus of the content make this material less attractive for special populations that are most in need of the physical activity promotion message. Overall, this material does a really good job in promoting a more comprehensive message of physical activity related health for those individuals who have already succeeded at becoming regularly active.
