Appropriate Physical Activity Intervention Strategies for Weight Loss and Prevention of Weight Regain for Adults

Overweight and obesity affects more than 66% of the adult population and is associated with a variety of chronic diseases. Weight reduction reduces health risks associated with chronic diseases and is therefore encouraged by major health agencies. Guidelines of the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) encourage a 10% reduction in weight, although considerable literature indicates reduction in health risk with 3% to 5% reduction in weight. Physical activity is recommended as a component of weight management for prevention of weight gain, for weight loss, and for prevention of weight regain after weight loss. In 2001, the American College of Sports Medicine published a Position Stand that recommended a minimum of 150 minutes per week of moderate–intensity physical activity for overweight and obese adults to improve health; however, 200–300 minutes per week was recommended for long–term weight loss. More recent evidence has supported this recommendation and has indicated more physical activity may be necessary to prevent weight regain after weight loss. To this end, the article reexamines the evidence from 1999 to determine whether there is a level at which physical activity is effective for prevention of weight gain, for weight loss, and prevention of weight regain.
