People living in cities today do not get enough exercise. Why? What can be done to solve this problem?

To begin

with, there are different reasons why communities in urban areas do not

exercise

enough. The

first

reason is that there are not many designated areas for exercising in cities.

This

is because nowadays cities are overcrowded and do not have enough land to accommodate the increasing population.

For example

, in 2008, the Sudanese government began to build new apartment blocks in public spaces that were earlier used as

exercise

areas.

As a result

, an individual now struggles to find a place where they can

exercise

.

Furthermore

, folks who live in a city are now busier than in the past. They work very hard to make a living for themselves and their families.

In other words

, space constraints and time constraints are the main reasons that discourage urban dwellers from getting enough workouts. Fortunately, there are several ways to tackle

this

issue.

First

of all, the government should provide free facilities where the community can

exercise

.

This

will definitely encourage more people to get physically active. The government

also

needs to create awareness about the importance of staying physically active. They can rope in respected public personalities to drive home the message that regular activity improves health and longevity. To sum up, it is evident that the lack of public space and the busy lifestyle of the urban community is the reason for them not getting enough workouts.

However

, building training facilities and teaching society about the importance of exercising can solve

this

problem.
