SUMMARY:Moving Medicine - Promoting Physical Activity Webinars (1 hour webi
 nar)
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Dr Richard Antbring – Specialist Registrar in Sp
 ort &amp\; Exercise Medicine\n\nMultiple dates available from Oct - Jan\n\
 nCLICK HERE to register\n\nMoving Medicine\, developed by the Faculty of 
 Sport and Exercise Medicine in partnership with Public Health England and 
 Sport England\, was officially launched by the Secretary of State for Heal
 th and Social Care\, Matt Hancock\, on 16th October 2018 at the 7th Int
 ernational Society for Physical Activity and Health Congress in London. Th
 e online resource has been developed to assist physical activity conversat
 ions between healthcare professionals and their patients by adopting a mo
 tivational interviewing framework and evidence-based recommendations speci
 fic to their conditions.\n\n27% of the general population are classified a
 s ‘inactive’\, meaning they do less than 30 minutes of physical activi
 ty (such as walking) per week. 33% of children do less than ½ recommended
  physical activity for their age. The inactive are at high risk of develo
 ping long-term health conditions\, a situation that is worsened by the fac
 t that when they develop illness they generally become even less active. 
 In children and young people physical activity plays an important role in 
 preventing the onset of mental health illness and improves the mental heal
 th\, quality of life and self-esteem in children with long-term condition
 s. The literature across childhood long-term conditions\, like the literat
 ure across adult long-term conditions points overwhelmingly to the benefit
  of physical activity over risk. Healthcare settings consequently provide
  a unique opportunity to support understanding and awareness of\, and grea
 ter engagement in\, physical activity amongst some of the least active mem
 bers of our population.\n\nA person-centred\, collaborative\, non-judgeme
 ntal conversational style which helps a person explore and talk about thei
 r reasons for change whilst strengthening their confidence or ‘self-effi
 cacy’ seems more likely to move a person to become more ready and take 
 action. Rather than telling people that they should become more active\, M
 oving Medicine recommends talking with them in such a way that they end up
  telling themselves that a more active lifestyle would be better for them.
  For instance\, rather than jumping in with suggestions about how to beco
 me more active\, time spent getting people to talk about things like what
 ’s important to them\, how they might best get started\, or who they mi
 ght like to do an activity with\, can make them more likely to change thei
 r behaviour.\n\nJoin one of these webinars for an introduction on the impo
 rtance on physical activity and how Moving Medicine can help you to improv
 e your patients’ activity levels and health\n\n
