- Then report the crude prevalence for each category (there will be four displayed) shown. Tell the reader the percentages for each category and what states specifically correspond to each category.
Lastly, tell the reader how how the physical activity data correlate with the obesity/BMI data you found? What do the trend data suggest? How do you interpret these data? What does this mean for public health practitioners? Where should our programs focus in the future? Running Head: INTERNET NAVIGATION 1

In both topics physical activity and BMI, the two qualifiers focused on the female gender and the age group 18 to 24 years old. The physical activity topic focused on adults whose response was no to engaging in thirty minutes or more of moderate activity five or more days per week. The BMI topic focused on weight classification by BMI. According to the BRFSS in 1996, thirty minutes of any physical activity five or more days per week said the female gender had a higher crude prevalence of 84 to 89.9 percent in the southern states compared to the states in the west coast region that had a lower crude prevalence between 77.8 to 77.1 percent. However, in 2000 there was an increase of states in the central and southern region that had a higher crude prevalence of 78.6 to 82.3 percent. The northwest states remained having a low crude prevalence similar to the year 1996. In 2000 the states that continued in the high crude prevalence similar to the year 1996 were Oklahoma, Louisiana, Iowa, Alabama, Kentucky, and Maine. Concentrating on the age group 18 to 24 year olds on physical activity in 1996, states in the east coast had a higher crude prevalence of 80.3 to 85.9 percent. The states that remained in this higher category in 2000 were Nebraska, Tennessee, Kentucky, and Ohio. Reviewing the BMI topic with a response of an obese BMI of 30.0 to 99.8 in the female gender in the year 1996 the state in the west coast had either a crude prevalence of 10.7 to 14.1 percent or 12.2 to 17.6 percent. The southern states and some states in the east coast had a high crude prevalence of 17.7 to 19.1 percent or 19.2 to 21.4 percent. However, in 2000 there was a drastic increase of states mainly in the southern area that hit the higher crude prevalence percentage of 22.2 to 26.3. These states included, Texas, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Tennessee, South Carolina, North Carolina, and West Virginia. In 2000, the west coast remained in the lower crude prevalence percentage of 14.2 to 17.1 percent or 17.2 to 19.8 percent. Comparing the physical activity data and BMI data there is a comparison that show how states that do not stay physically active have a higher BMI. Physical activity in 1996 based on age group did not improve in the central states but increased in 2000. Along the same lines there is significant correlation comparing the physical activity data to the BMI data that focused on age. The BMI data displayed no improvement from 1996 to 2000 but an increase in the central states as well. The south and east coast displayed a higher crude prevalence percentage in physical activity in the age group of 18 to 24 years old and the female gender. This relates to the BMI data that also illustrates the same pattern in the age group of 18 to 24 years old and the female gender. The BMI in 1996 has increased in 2000 mainly in the south and east coast, similarly to the physical activity data where those states have indicated low physical activity. Due to the increase in obesity in the United States there has been many programs implemented to help this growing epidemic. However, public health practitioners should focus on promoting and educating exercise and physical activity. There are programs already implemented that will help our future generations such as the Let’s Move! campaign, a national initiative launch by First Lady Michelle Obama on February 9, 2010 (Gibi, 2013). The campaign plays an important role to putting children on the path to a healthy future by educating people on the importance of supporting and practicing a healthy lifestyle. The campaign aims to change an environment of a community to ensure families have access to healthy and affordable foods. A campaign that works toward stopping obesity is very important because in the article Vital Signs: Obesity Among Low-Income, Preschool-Ages Children – United States, 2008-2011 mentioned, “overweight or obese preschoolers are five times as likely to become overweight or obese adults, compared with their normal eight peers. In older children and adolescents, obesity is associated with high cholesterol, high blood sugar, asthma and mental health problems” (May et al., 2013, p. 633). The lack of physical activity and poor diet is connected to the increase in BMI and obesity. It is important for health practitioners to encourage a healthy lifestyle by promoting healthy eating and physical activity; the combination reduces an individual’s risk of developing chronic diseases. The BRFSS data displays that the lack of exercise does play a factor with the increase in BMI.
