The Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans PAG provides sciencebased recommendations on how physical activity can help promote health and reduce the risk of chronic disease. The PAG serves as the benchmark and primary, authoritative voice of the federal government for providing science-based guidance on physical activity, fitness, and health in the United States. The U.S. Department of Health and Human Services HHS
released the first edition in 2008 and the second edition in 2018. In 2013, HHS
released a midcourse report highlighting strategies to increase physical activity among youth. The PAG and related reports are available at www.health.gov/
paguidelines. The Office of Disease Prevention and Health Promotion ODPHP, in collaboration with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention CDC, the National Institutes of Health NIH, and the Presidents Council on Sports, Fitness &
Nutrition PCSFN, intends to develop a midcourse report for release in 2023. A
subcommittee of the PCSFN will be convened to conduct a literature review and summarize findings which will support the development of the midcourse report.
The midcourse report will further reinforce and disseminate the PAG and the importance of regular physical activity. Despite the many benefits of physical activity for older adults, only 13.9% of adults over age 65 meet the aerobic and muscle-strengthening key guidelines 2018 data from National Health Interview Survey. Therefore, the next PAG Midcourse Report will focus

on how to increase physical activity levels among older adults.
Overview: The PAG Midcourse Report will use the strong science base from the PAG published in 2018, which details the amounts and types of physical activity needed for a variety of shortand long-term benefits for older adults see https health.gov/PAguidelines and the World Health Organization review of effective interventions for older adults see https ijbnpa.

s12966-021-01140-9. This midcourse report seeks to:
1. Highlight key components of intervention strategies that have been shown to be effective in increasing physical activity levels among older adults.
2. Identify settings where physical activity messaging/encouragement would be relevant to older adults.
3. Highlight policy, systems, and environmental interventions particularly important to this population to increase physical activity.
4. Summarize effective strategies to overcome barriers and limitations to implementing the above interventions, including where evidence is available:
a. Emphasize equity and reduce disparities in participation, including among individuals with disabilities and individuals of racial/ethnic groups.
b. Highlight strategies to bolster mental health, build resilience, or enhance social connectedness.
Written comments: Based on the above outline, HHS requests input on how this midcourse report can best support decision makers, health professionals, educators, and others working to promote or implement physical activity among older adults in a variety of settings. For example, 1 are there other related areas this report should address that would inform and guide your work with this population?
and 2 What information or knowledge gaps do you experience in your work that could be supported by a midcourse report? Comments will be accepted via email to PAGReviews@hhs.gov until 11:59 p.m. E.T. on December 8, 2021.
HHS may contact respondents regarding their submissions to ask for clarification if needed.
