Welcome to Exercise Right Week 2021! This year, we are sharing the message that ‘Exercise Changes Lives’. Through the power of exercise, you can take charge of your health, take charge of your well-being and take charge of your life!
Exercise is for everyone, regardless of age, weight, background or health status. With the right advice for your individual needs, you can change your life.

Being physically active reduces your risk of chronic conditions, like heart disease and diabetes, reduces your risk of mental illness and helps you to live a happier and healthier life. Your body NEEDS regular exercise to stay healthy, both physically and mentally. And yet, Aussies aren’t moving enough… and it’s affecting how we live our lives.
Over half of all Australians aren't getting the recommended amount of physical activity.
1 in 2 Australians are living with at least one chronic condition (like cardiovascular disease or diabetes).
45% of Australians will experience a mental health condition, like depression, in their lifetime.
There's over 60 FREE exercise classes, exercise assessments and education sessions happening all week! Sign up now to get involved.
Stay on track with our Physical Activity Tracker! We're encouraging all Aussies to record their exercise during Exercise Right Week.
