Muscles, movement and recovery matter

Presenter: Sarah Clarke

Exercise is crucial to our physical, mental and emotional health. It's recommended that adults 18-64 years of age undertake 2.5-5 hours of moderate exercise or 1.25-2.5 hours of intense exercise weekly¹. Nearly two-thirds (63%) of less active Aussies believe their niggles have stopped them from participating in physical activity². Increased levels of activity requires consideration of some key nutrients to support muscle contractility, relaxation and resuscitation for improving energy and recovery.
