Physical inactivity is a lifestyle that has significantly increased in the population in recent years. The cardiovascular compromise inherent to this lack of activity is one of the greatest risk factors that health professionals must face. From the primary care physician's office, appropriate exercise prescription in healthy adults can maximize the multiple benefits of physical activity and reduce cardiovascular risk and the factors that may contribute to the development of various chronic non- communicable diseases.
