A Quarter of the World’s Adults Don’t Get Enough Exercise, Study Says

One in four adults worldwide doesn't get enough exercise, putting "more than 1.4 billion adults at risk of developing or exacerbating diseases linked to inactivity," a new study says.

The study, which was conducted by researchers from the World Health Organization (WHO) and published in The Lancet Global Health, found that 27.5% of people across the globe do not meet the WHO's physical activity guidelines of 75 minutes of vigorous exercise or 150 minutes of moderate exercise per week.
