physical activity
I liked that the instructors themselves were involved in some sort of physical activity in the videos.
I would suggest that there be a section for physical activity or exercise for disabled people.
this course is very useful and helpful, it let you to set your own goal of physical activity and tells you how to keep going.
This course is very beneficial to people who are not usually active, but if you are an active person then you'll probably learn about measuring your physical activity.
The course is interesting and might be useful for complete strangers in the world of fitness/physical activity, as it provides some general ideas about implementing activity to one's daily life, as well as gives a good understanding on stating achievable goals.
thanks for the course it is very useful A very basic course, suited for those who are getting started on physical activity.
A useful course that gives practical guidelines on increasing physical activity in daily life.
This course provides an excellent comprehensive overview of physical activity.
Hopefully after the MOOC finishes that the evaluation process will demonstrate a positive outcome to educate and change attitudes to physical activity on a global basis.
