The WHO (2010) recommends that young adults should take 150 minutes of moderate physical activity 
per-week, or 75 minutes of vigorous physical activity per-week.
This threshold is not being reached by 25% of university students
 (de Almedia et al., 2007). Many university students drop-out from organised sports and physical activities, 
and are unlikely to undertake new active pursuits later in life
(Telema et al., 2008). The above research indicates the necessity of an intervention programme such as Made2Move.
Physical activity has been proven to be beneficial for health and well-being (Biddle, Mutrie & Gorely, 2015), this programme sets out to guide university students who may fall into the above described category in how to become physically active.

Morris refers to physical inactivity as a major determinant of health status. Physical inactive adults are at an increased risk of hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, various cancers, anxiety and depression ( Livingstone,2011).Diseases and poor health conditions associated with physical inactivity include the following : 
- obesity
-diabetes
- heart disease
-  some cancers
- poor mental health]]> 2020-03-29 16:49:36 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/480690713 (1) Heart Disease, Diabetes 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/480698000 Ekelund et al (1988), along with Sandvik et al (1994) and the Us Department of Health and Human Services (1996) all agree with the view that physical inactivity and a low level of physical fitness are risk factors for premature cardiovascular disease (CVD) mortality. The importance of reinforcing the message of life long healthy physical status is much more pedagogically correct then enforcing the message of body composition or weight management. The prevalence of preventable disease is growing in line with lack of participation in physical activity which highlights the need for a programme focused on promoting health status through exercise.

Many of the students who are in the programme are generally from high socio-economic backgrounds given their attendance to university however the phenomenon of higher levels of obesity with lower socio economic status is not a wholly true principle. In Ireland current estimates suggest that one in five adults are obese posing a particular threat to the population given our high mortality from cardiovascular disease relative to other European countries. The below graph demonstrates the prevalence of obesity. The implementation of a physical activity programme may curtail the extent to which obesity effects the health care system and associated costs.]]> 2020-03-29 17:02:13 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/480707444 (3) Poor Mental Health 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/480730427 Studies indicate that depressed persons develop a more sedentary lifestyle and become less physically active. 
Therefore, an intervention to combat this inactivity could significantly contribute to lowered depression levels.
A recent study done by UCL found that teenagers who were inactive had higher risks of depression. They suggested that digital media played a part in this inactivity, the Made2Move club will provide an external avenue for students who may not have any other outlet in order to combat this inactivity and henceforth depression levels.]]> 2020-03-29 17:19:06 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/480730427 Introduction to the club 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/481728001 The Made 2 Move club is a non competitive walking & physical activity club delivered by voluntary community mentors who help their peers 'mentees' to become more physically active and establish healthier habit.

Programme Aims-
To simply get people moving more by increasing their daily steps with the guidance of a volunteer ''Move Mentor''.
The over all aim of the club is for the Made2Move Mentee to :
-> keep up their newly increased physical activity levels.
-> continue walking after the programme is finished.
-> and/or join a local club/walking club/activity.

Why walking?
- one of the oldest and most natural forms of physical activity.
- can be done anywhere, at any time!
- is an easy form of activity that can achieve a healthy heart.
- is an effective means of achieving physical activity guidelines set by WHO.
- easiest way to go from living an inactive lifestyle to living an active lifestyle.
- has countless physical, mental and social benefits for the individual.

-> to encourage students to establish SMART goals before beginning the programme in order to motivate them intrinsically to truly engage with the programme.
-> to guide both mentors and mentees in informing them of World Health Organisation’s guidelines and assisting them in providing frameworks to how they can meet these recommendations regarding physical activity!
-> to post regularly on social media regarding upcoming physical activity events that both mentors and mentees can get involved in with friends and meet new people! 
-> to encourage new members are welcome and to ensure that the club is as inclusive as possible, welcoming people of all levels and abilities. 
-> to motivate mentees and mentors to get physically active through weekly posts on social media which are informative.
-> to organise a 5km end of the year event for students to use as a short term goal. ]]> 2020-03-30 10:32:38 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/481781540 Plan of Action for Mentors 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/481789458 Move Mentors first recruited a student  from their social circle to become a Move Mentee ( findings from last years Made to Move 3.0 showed that it is more effective to mentor a friend rather then a stranger).

The position I have attained as PRO allows me to engage with and motivate my peers, express empathy with people and understand real life situations in order to respond appropriately with guidance towards appropriate resources. These attributes will undoubtedly assist me in my future role as a physical education teacher hence why I viewed the opportunity to practice as invaluable. 
One of the first objectives a leader must accomplish in my view is achieving a true balance between individual effort and teamwork of the collective unit as a whole. The realization of this balance comes from a structured approach to the tasks that are an integral part of the program. In the Made2Move programme this may mean clear and coherent communication between all members of the club and consistent information. When the interplay among the individual, the team, and the task is in harmony, a good leader is assured of success and therefore the success of the MADE TO MOVE PROGRAMME as a whole.
I have discovered as a PRO it is not only social media engagement and advertising but also interaction with people and conversation and communication in person.
As many of my peer students are born in the Z generation- we work best under co operation with one another and I think this position will allow me to encourage fellow students to do so in a structured and effective way.]]> 2020-03-30 10:43:27 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/481800838 Mind Map of Padlet 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/482198428 2020-03-30 13:53:47 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/482198428 Week by Week Description of Lectures ED2318 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/482332210 MADE2MOVE]]> 2020-03-30 14:38:41 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/482332210 Mentors & Mentees. 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/491851242 2020-04-03 20:00:15 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/491851242 The Lectures 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/491855088 2020-04-03 20:03:49 UTC https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/491855088 Role- Responsibilities, Accountabilities, Challenges and Response. 118335686 https://padlet.com/118335686/8k67ip2lr62i/wish/491934476 •          Critique your role from the standpoint of Club Officer responsibilities and accountabilities.
