The Exercise Causes Shifting in Germany

Fri Feb 07 2025
These days adults in Germany have a higher rate of non-communicable diseases. Doctors have to put aside ideas that exercise isn't important. It's really important for keeping diseases away. It's also a must in not making diseases worse. The key is to get these adults to have a consistent exercise routine. To understand this issue, we need to look at the numbers. In 2014/2015 and 2019/2020 two health check-ups were conducted. They showed that adults with non-communicable diseases were less active than usual. Doctors wanted to know why. World Health Organization (WHO) has been pushing to find ways to reduce these issues. We need to know what drives people to exercise. The trantheoretical model (TTM) helps with this. It gives a clear picture of how ready people are to start or keep exercising. The model was used to understand what motivates adults. It gives us a better idea of how to help them. Germany has to find ways to get these adults to exercise more. That means, we need to know what motivates them. We have the data. Now we need to use it to make more people healthier.
