Answer to Question 1

Inactivity is a threat to your health and well-being because it:
 Doubles the risk of diabetes and obesity.
 Increases the risk of colon cancer, high blood pressure, osteoporosis, depression, and
anxiety.
 Ranks as high as elevated cholesterol, high blood pressure, or cigarette smoking as a risk factor for heart disease.
 Doubles the likelihood of heart failure.
 Leads to Sedentary Death Syndrome, which claims some 250,000 lives, accounting for 10 percent of all deaths in the United States every year.
