Everyone can benefit from being physically active. Physical activity can reduce your risk of major illness such as heart disease, type 2 diabetes, stroke and some cancers. Being physically active can also boost your self-esteem, energy levels and sleep quality as well as lower risk of stress, depression, dementia and Alzheimer's disease.
