Q
Physical activity trends across the lifespan
A
When they are young, children take part in a lot of play-based physical activities.
As they grow into teens and older kids, the physical activity branches into mainly sport based activities.
Physical activity starts to drop off for males, as they reach early their late 20s and for females it is as often as 14-15.
Adults’ physical activity, on average, continues to drop off as they get older.
