Summary: Persons who are physically active
Database Detail
| Name | Percentage of Persons Who Are Physically Active (Archives, 2001-2008) |
| Summary | Persons who are physically active |
| Additional Background | This database is no longer updated. See related databases.
This database contains data on the percentage of persons who are physically active. NA indicated data are not available; in some cases, this is due to the state's failure to collect data. National Average showing NA indicate that the average could not be calculated because all states did not ask the physical activity questions. Data have been adjusted for non-responses, and weighted to provide state and overall estimates.
Note: The CDC expects to publish a more detailed data file in late summer 2016. We will update as soon as that file is available.
