Intervention strategies
GP prescription. Patients are screened opportunistically when visiting their general
practice; inactive patients receive a physical activity prescription from the GP and
follow-up phone call(s) from an exercise physiologist.
GP referral to exercise physiologist. Screening questionnaires are mailed to all
patients on the GP patient list; inactive patients are invited to attend a series of
counselling sessions with an exercise physiologist at their local general practice.
Mass media-based campaign. A six-week campaign combines physical activity
promotion via mass media(television, radio, newspaper, etc.), distribution of
promotional materials, and community events and activities.
TravelSmart. An active transport program targets households with tailored
information (e.g., maps of local walking paths, bus timetables) and merchandise (e.g.,
water bottles, key rings) as an incentive and/or reward for reducing use of cars for
transport.
Pedometers. A community program encourages use of pedometers as a
motivational tool to increase physical activity (e.g., to 10,000 steps per day).
Internet. Participants are recruited via mass media to access physical activity
information and advice across the internet via a Web site and/or email.

Effects of Physical Inactivity
Physical activity occurs during work, transport, domestic, and leisure-time activities.
Too little physical activity increases the risks of ischaemic heart disease, stroke, colon
cancer, breast cancer, and type 2 diabetes, as well as obesity and falls in later life. The
World Health Organization recommends at least 30 minutes of regular, moderate-
intensity physical activity on most days to reduce the risk of disease and injury.
Lack of physical activity is a problem in many developed countries, and a growing
concern for developing countries adopting a progressively ‘‘Westernised’’ lifestyle.
Australia is no exception, with only 44% of men and 36% of women achieving
sufficient physical activity for health. This inactivity contributes 7% of Australia’s
disease burden and 10% of all deaths, mostly due to cardiovascular disease and
diabetes. It also places a substantial burden on the Australian economy through the
costs of treatment for physical activity–related disease and injury, lost productivity,
and diminished quality of life.
