What is PAC?
Physical Activity Counts (PAC) is a self-run program for recording daily physical activity. A wealth of scientific and medical evidence supports the many benefits of getting regular physical activity (see box at right). Using the PAC scoresheet individuals can track their activity levels. Personal goals for progress can be set, buddies can encourage each other, or groups can hold friendly competitions for prizes or peer support.

To start the PAC program, simply pick up a scoresheet (see below) and begin recording your daily physical activity. The scoresheet is based on the amount of time you spend being active. For more information on using the scoresheet, click here.

The PAC program is an adaptation of the Tompkins County Health Planning Council's Imagine Action. Imagine Action was adapted from the NYS Physical Activity Coalition's Move For Life program for worksites and individuals (www.nysphysicalactivity.org/mfl/).
