How active are you?

If you're an adult, take this quick quiz to see how active you are (children need different levels of activity to adults - go to Tips for young people for more details).

Just select the appropriate box following each of these questions, then check your results below:

How many times a week do you usually do 30 minutes or more of other moderate intensity activity (like mowing the lawn, digging in the garden, medium-paced swimming or cycling, carrying light loads)?

How many times a week do you usually do 20 minutes or more of vigorous activity (the stuff that makes you huff and puff, like jogging, aerobics or fast cycling and active sports like football, squash and netball)?
