On the one hand, the primary challenge associated with this case is gaining extra weight. In other words, people burn less calory when they stay inactive and gain extra fat. Prime example for this is the USA where 60% of households who live in flat are overweight. As a result, obesity may lead to further incurable diseases in the near future.
On the other hand, an effective approach to address this problem is offering financial incentive for those who follow active life style. It is an undeniable fact that if individuals receive certain amount of money as a present for their physical activities, they may do it regularly.
