Option 03 Physical Activities and Lifestyle Behaviors

Option 03 this week has you contemplate previous coursework regarding how physical activities and healthy lifestyle behaviors can promote physical and mental wellness in a manner that is directly related to your capstone topic. Please review the latest Centers for Disease Control guidelines for physical activity and health benefits (Benefits of Physical Activity) and share how these concepts directly relate to your capstone project. Temptations to lead a sedentary lifestyle combined with overindulgence of nutrient-poor foods and other poor habits such as related to technology often lead to health issues such as heart disease, high blood pressure, stroke, diabetes, cancer, sleep disorders, etc. Adopting healthy lifestyle habits is often more challenging than initially anticipated with sustainable fitness and dietary practices often taking time to show tangible results which causes many to search for a quick fix. Please cite some specific studies regarding lifestyle changes necessary to meet and exceed recommended physical activity guidelines within your capstone final manuscript text and reference list using APA style.
