WHO Study Reveals Global Adolescent Inactivity

A new World Health Organization (WHO) global study indicates that approximately 240 million adolescents aged 11 to 17, or one in four worldwide, reported no physical activity in the preceding week. The findings highlight a persistent lack of progress in increasing activity levels over the past 15 years, with girls consistently less active than boys. This trend raises significant public health concerns regarding long-term well-being.
