The first section covers the concepts for the development of
physical activity practice; influencing sustained health behaviour
change, explaining the role and function of health policy in
physical activity promotion, and developing the evidence base for
physical activity interventions. Section Two explores the evidence
base for interventions in physical activity practice, in varied
settings and target groups. Physical Activity and Health
Promotion concludes with a challenge to innovate in promoting
physical activity.
Physical Activity and Health Promotion will be of relevant to health professionals and students with an interest in sport, physical activity and exercise, particularly health and exercise promotion specialists across the disciplines.
