Doctors in many countries believe that people are not getting enough exercise. What might be causing this lack of exercise? What can be done to address the issue?

The number of

people

who are adopting a sedentary

lifestyle

is on a rise.

This

increase was caused by several factors including the high

fees

of fitness clubs and long working and studying hours. In order to solve

this

issue, governments around the world ought to adopt a number of measures to solve it.

This

essay will discuss the major causes and propose some possible solutions. To commence with, the main causes for an inactive

lifestyle

are that most

people

cannot afford to go to gyms and to spend more time to make a living or studying. Recent studies have shown that fewer

people

are interested in joining sports facilities than ever before due to the costly

fees

. In the US alone,

for example

, the financial

fees

have increased from 200$ to 500$ per person, which explains the growth of the obesity rates in

this

country.

As a result

, more citizens are vulnerable to chronic diseases

such

as diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

Furthermore

, adults spend a significant amount of time earning a proper income aiming for a better standard of living for themselves and their families. In most countries, an average person spends at least 50 hours a week working on a desk, which means it is nearly impossible for him/her to do any form of exercising. Children,

on the other hand

, attend classes during the day and working on their homework and assignments until bedtime, which leaves them with no time for exercising, especially if they are studying online. These factors contributed immensely to the lack of exercise in many countries around the world. One possible solution for the aforementioned issues is that governments would raise the awareness of the community by cooperating with celebrities and influencers as well as designing a new subject in schools related to exercising and health matters. Unsoundly, if famous

people

incorporated any new change in their

lifestyle

, ordinary

people

would follow it immediately.

This

will allow the message to spread as wide as possible. A well-known example is when a significant number of celebrities became vegan a couple of years ago and started to exercise regularly, most

people

around the world followed their leads and became interested in

this

active and healthy

lifestyle

.

Moreover

, adding a new course in schools would be beneficial as educating

people

about the importance of exercising from an early age is more likely to stick with them all their life, and becomes a habit

that is

difficult to simply ignore doing. In some countries, Germany

for instance

, a health subject available in which exercising and healthy eating are discussed.

This

leaves youngsters from Germany with an understanding of the

lifestyle

and encouragement to adopt it.

Therefore

, an increase in overall physical activity will more likely take place if governments take prompt measures to solve it. In conclusion, the high financial

fees

of sporting facilities and the long hours of studying and working would cause an inactive

lifestyle

. To solve

this

problem, it is the responsibility of the government to raise the awareness of

people

.
