Barriers to Physical Activity | Community Health

Barriers to physical activity are the obstacles that prevent people from engaging in regular exercise, and can include lack of time, motivation, or access to safe and affordable facilities. Organizations like [[participaction|ParticipACTION]] are working to remove these barriers and create a culture of movement. According to the [[world-health-organization|World Health Organization]], regular physical activity can help reduce the risk of chronic diseases, such as heart disease and diabetes, and improve overall mental health and well-being.
