Global inactivity has rapidly increased as more people spend less time performing physical activity. The decline of physical activity affects the current obesity epidemic and could increase the risk of other diseases.

The decrease in physical activity was reported across the global and not just in developed countries. New research is showing the decline of physical activity occurring everywhere from America, the United Kingdom, China, India and Brazil. A lot of the blame goes to modern technology, not just television or computers but refrigerators, microwaves and washing machines are also behind the decline of physical activity.

The study unveiling the decline in global physical activity was led by Barry Popkin, PhD, and Shu Wen Ng, PhD, both from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill's Gillings School of Global Public Health. The researchers examined data collected since the 1960's on time-use in various countries. The studies were nationally representative and helped document how different people spent time working or being physically active.
