Your chances of becoming obese are only made worse if you’re a chronic couch potato.

The American Council on Exercise suggests how businesses, governments and communities can promote physical activity:

• Employers should create programs that motivate people to stay moving on the job.
• Physical education programs for grades K-12 should require exercise to be a part of all before-school, after-school and summer programs.
• Governments and businesses should stress opportunities for physical activity, including for people with disabilities.
• Governments should concentrate on funding research into the dangers of physical inactivity.
