This interactive session will leave you informed, inspired, and equipped to move more—personally and professionally. Participants will explore how physical activity is both a personal responsibility and a behavior deeply shaped by our environments, systems, and workplace cultures. Through a guided self-assessment and participation in a six-movement, full-body resistance training program, attendees will gain practical tools to incorporate movement into daily routines and to prescribe to patients using simple equipment such as resistance bands. The session will also highlight the expanding evidence on the benefits of physical activity for health and longevity. It will highlight strategies to encourage physical activity within the workplace, along with the keys to sustained behavior change.

Upon completion of this educational activity, learners should be able to:

• Evaluate physical activity levels with the Physical Activity Vital Sign (PAVS)
• Describe the role of exercise as medicine
• Explore strategies to prescribe and promote physical activity
