Canadian 24-Hour Movement Guidelines: A healthy 24 hours includes physical activity, sedentary behaviour, healthy eating and sleep.


Regular daily physical activity is very important.
It helps to prevent and control type 2 diabetes.


Physical activity not only improves physical fitness, but also mental health, focus, sleep, energy, confidence and overall well-being. 
All types of movement count! What matters is to make moving an important part of your everyday life. This includes  walks, housework,  yard work, running errands, washing the car, walking up the stairs at work, etc.

Find out what to add to your everyday life. Find what works for you and your family. Is it playing outside with your family,  using community programs, online resources or sneaking exercise bouts into your breaks? 
​

Most importantly, make physical activity fun!
Find activities that you enjoy and being more active will seem much easier.
Buddying up with others too makes it easier to stay on track.

Advocacy
The webpage was created to provide tools and ideas for individuals to live a physically active lifestyle. Since the environment and policy play a large role in people’s health and opportunities to be physically active, KSDPP strongly advocates for healthy environment and policies to  promote healthy choices for individuals.
