Geidl, W., Abu-Omar, K., Weege, M., Messing, S., & Pfeifer, K. (2020). German recommendations for physical activity and physical activity promotion in adults with noncommunicable diseases. International journal of behavioral nutrition and physical activity 17

The German recommendations for physical activity state that adults with NCDs should, over the course of a week, do at least 150 min of moderate-intensity aerobic PA, or 75 min of vigorous-intensity aerobic PA, or a combination of both. Furthermore, muscle-strengthening activities should be performed at least twice a week. The promotion of PA among adults with NCDs should be theory-based, specifically target PA behaviour, and be tailored to the respective target group. In this context, and as an intervention method, exercise referral schemes are one of the more promising methods of promoting PA in adults with NCDs.
