1 BACK TO THE FUTURE; re-engineering activity and movement back into our lives Dr. Barry Lambe Dept. of Sport and Exercise Science Waterford Institute of Technology
2 New Evidence on the benefits of PA Weight Management Sleep Executive function Depressive symptoms Anxiety symptoms Perceived quality of life Physical function Pregnancy Dementia and cognitive function Bone health Falls and injuries Cancers Osteoporosis & Osteoarthritis Hypertension Type 2 diabetes Hypercholesterolemia
3 New evidence for PA Guidelines 3 1. Light activity is important 2. Any duration is beneficial 3. PA may attenuate the negative effects of sedentary behavior
4 Recreational PA is Increasing (Irish Sports Monitor, 2017) Sports Participation Club Membership Recreational Walking Participation in Individual Sport
5 Globally Total PA is Decreasing (Guthold et al., 2018)

8 How can we change physical activity and sedentary behaviours?

11 The environmental influence on PA is significant
12 Good Access to Recreational Facilities = High Recreational PA; RESIDE Study (Giles-Corti, 2013, USDHHS, 2018) Recreational PA increased by 17.6 min/wk for each recreational PA destination
13 Areas with high walkability indices have higher PA Connectivity Walkability (Brennan et al., 2014; Mozzaffarian et al., 2012; The Community Guide, 2016; Sallis IPEN study, 2016; USDHHS, 2018) Greenspace Community Land Use Density Experience Traffic Safety Parking Surveillance (Zuniga-Teran et al., 2017)
14 Incidental PA; point of decision prompts to increase stair use (Jennings et al, 2017)
15 let's have a moment of silence for all those who are stuck in traffic on their way to the gym to ride the stationary bicycle Earl Blumenauer
16 There is potential to increase active travel in Ireland (Buehler et al., 2016) 14% of daily trips by foot or bike
17 Why don t we cycle for transport in Ireland?
18 What influences our mode of travel? Astrid De Witte, Joachim Hollevoet, Frédéric Dobruszkes, Michel Hubert, Cathy Macharis Linking modal choice to motility: A comprehensive review Transportation Research Part A: Policy and Practice, Volume 49, 2013, 329

20 What s stopping her? No independent mobility license Safety issues Ample free parking Takes longer Trip chaining commitments Load carrying and bike storage Permeability & connectivity issues Car ownership, accessibility and convenience Sufficiently active Distance Independent mobility, cycling infrastructure and safety Social Awareness Extra-curricular activities Davison et al, 2008; Panter et al, 2008; Pont et al, 2009; Wong et al, 2011; Mitra et al, 2013

25 The economic benefits of walkable environments
26 Walking Policies Pedestrianised streets, pedestrian facility improvements, traffic calming, signage, education and enforcement Cycling Policies Cycling route networks, on-road cycle lanes, segregated cycle lanes, traffic calming, signage, bike sharing, bike parking, promotional events and education, staff and funding Public Transport Policies Expanded services, improved quality of services, cheaper fares for regular users Car-restrictive Policies Taxation, driving license regulations, carfree zones, traffic calming, parking supply price and duration controls, diversion of traffic in orbital routes
