Exercise Important to a Long Life

Recent research has shown that exercise is a key factor to living a longer life. A study published in the American Journal of Public Health indicates people who practiced 4 low-risk behaviors lived longer -- those 4 were: not smoking, eating healthy, getting enouugh exercise, and drinking alcohol moderately. This, along with much other evidence, begs for RT professional preparation programs to provide students with training in conducting physical activities and in providing leisure counseling (to help clients choose healthy lifestyles). How well do you think our universities are doing in providing students with this training?
