This resource provides clinicians with useful tools to: (1) assess the current physical activity levels of their patients; (2) emphasize with patients the value of long-term exercise and activity for improved health; (3) help patients find activity options that are safe, sustainable, and as enjoyable as possible; and (4) summarize exercise recommendations for heart health and maintaining weight loss.

This aligns with Key Driver 5: Engage with Patients and Families in Evidence-Based Care and Quality Improvement.
