Australia's Physical Activity Recommendations for 12-18 year olds

  • Did you know that if you're between 12 and 18 years old, you need to be doing at least 60 minutes of moderate to vigorous physical activity every day to keep healthy?
  • And you shouldn't spend more than two hours a day surfing the net, watching TV or playing video games? (Unless of course it's educational!)

Walking, skateboarding, playing sport and heaps of other activities are not only good for you, they give you a chance to spend time with friends and make new ones.

So get active, enjoy life and have fun!
