When most adults think about exercise, they imagine working out in the gym, running on a treadmill, or lifting weights. But for kids of all ages, exercise means playing and being physically active.

The Sedentary Problem

 

Kids and teens are sitting around a lot more than they used to. They spend hours every day in front of a screen (TVs, smartphones, tablets), looking at a variety of media. Too much screen time and not enough physical activity add to the problem of childhood obesity and movement deficiencies. Launch PAD aims to use this to our advantage and provides 20min bitesized, movement driven, exercise sessions for kids to do on a phone or iPad
