Which example demonstrates living an active lifestyle?

• A. Cardiac rehabilitation
• B. Watching television
• C. Prolonged sitting
• D. Frequent snacking

Answer: (A)

Actively living means regularly moving and engaging in purposeful exercise rather than staying sedentary. Cardiac rehabilitation embodies this by providing a supervised program of aerobic and resistance training, along with education and strategies to incorporate safe physical activity into daily life during recovery from heart surgery. It’s a structured plan that helps increase activity levels and endurance, which is the essence of an active lifestyle. In contrast, watching television and prolonged sitting promote inactivity, and frequent snacking relates more to diet than to activity.
