The document emphasizes the importance of personalized everyday physical activity for healthy aging, advocating for a shift from viewing activity solely as sport or exercise to recognizing the value of all movement. It highlights the role of technology and mentoring tools like the kiactiv® dashboard in empowering individuals to take control of their health. The approach encourages proactive engagement in physical activity, promoting self-management and adaptability to maintain independence throughout aging.

1. PERSONALISING PHYSICAL ACTIVITY:OUR OPPORTUNITY
TO EMPOWER A GENERATION
© Ki Performance 2020

2. Introduction
Sustaining Physical Activity is highlighted as one
of the seven key themes for Healthy Ageing
To meet this goal it is imperative that physical
activity is properly understood and the
narrative reset to be more than just sport and
exercise
Every move we make has value to our health
and finding the opportunity to move in ~112
hours of a waking week makes it is accessible
to everyone,
Personalised everyday physical activity has no
barriers to age, mobility or environment and
has shown itself be crucial in adapting to the
restrictions placed on us by COVID-19

3. Why is a newapproach so important?
We can demonstrate that behaviour change for
everyday physical activity is accessible to
everyone and has the power to keep people doing
the things they love for longer
Being active has so many benefits to us as we age,
it keeps us healthy, strong, functional and
independent, and it is never too late to start
Too often we think of physical activity as sport or
exercises, and technology has also made our lives
much easier in some aspects removing key
elements of activity from our routines
However, we can now utilise the latest science
and technology to help each of us understand our
own daily activities, what in our routines benefits
our health, and how we can adapt to make
simple, long-lasting changes that suit us and our
lifestyles

4. Let’s be more ambitious about ageing well
Most digital technologies focused on ageing fall
into the category of remote monitoring
Although passive monitoring has value we
don’t believe that everyone should be made to
think they need a virtual carer, because people
don’t want to feel that they are not the person
they once were
We want people to be more ambitious about
the opportunities to age well and to move from
passive monitoring to empowering people to
make proactive choices to enable them to keep
doing the things they love for longer
Accurate Body Data
The accurate measurement of everyday
physical activity is vital and it’s not about
‘steps’.
KiActiv® Dashboard
The personalised interactive dashboard is
accessible 24/7 to meet users’ needs and
empowers the right choices for their life.
Personalised Mentoring
Supported by 6 x 20min sessions with a trained
KiActiv® Mentor for guidance at key times over
the 12 weeks.
Physical Activity
It’s about all movement not just exercises.
Taking the stairs, mowing the lawn, washing
the car or walking to the next bus stop.

5. Our experience of supporting people to take control
We’ve been delivering our service to the NHS for a
number of years for LTCs and Rehab as a self care
option
It provides a much needed alternative to current care,
which involves travelling to a gym/leisure centre or
clinic for group exercise sessions
Uptake of current care is poor, and the barriers are
numerous
COVID-19 has reframed the way we need to look at
service provision so that care isn’t entirely reliant on
place-based, face-to-face services
There is a remarkable appetite to self-manage, which is
not limited by age
We need to enable people to look after themselves,
keep healthy at home, and thrive by being their own
experts

9. Empowermentand Choice
Empowering people to look after themselves is
crucial, and also very possible
Looking at all the opportunities to be active
across 112 waking hours a week creates a
world of possibility
The multiple dimensions of physical activity are
vital to creating choice and enabling people to
make the most of the opportunities in their
daily routine
What matters for our health is not what we are
doing (e.g. walking, cycling, or dancing around
the living room) but the intensity and duration
of that activity
This is why measuring activity using steps is so
flawed
