Preface



The exercise sheets provide all health professionals with a clear and concise exercise plan to provide to every patient seen in their clinical practice. Each sheet supports patients on how to exercise safely and effectively for each disease condition. Medical evidence clearly demonstrates that regular exercise is hugely beneficial for the majority of long term health conditions (Non Communicable Diseases, NCDs) and certain acute health problems. Every health and social care professional has a key role in helping patients to understand why it is important to exercise, where they can exercise safely, and how to exercise effectively to maximise the health benefits and to reduce the risks of NCDs.
