The clinical case

Exercise is medicine.
The evidence is overwhelming.

We built Your LIFE around what the data actually shows, that consistent, structured exercise is one of the highest-leverage interventions available to your patients.

150 min/wk

Reduces all-cause mortality.

Adults meeting WHO physical activity guidelines see significant reductions in cardiovascular disease, type 2 diabetes, several cancers, and depression.
WHO Guidelines on Physical Activity, 2020

~30%

Lower CV event rate.

Structured exercise programmes show meaningful reductions in cardiovascular event rates among at-risk adults, comparable to several pharmacological interventions.
Naci & Ioannidis, BMJ 2013

2-3x

Lower CV event rate.

Multimodal exercise (strength, balance, mobility) reduces fall rates in adults aged 65+ when delivered consistently over 12+ weeks.
Cochrane Review, 2019

+24%

Cancer-related survival.

Post-diagnosis physical activity is associated with improved survival outcomes in breast and colorectal cancers, alongside reduced fatigue and improved quality of life.
Friedenreich et al., JNCI 2020

Patient suitability

Who you can refer.

If your patient is cleared for moderate exercise and would benefit from supervised, progressive training, they're a candidate. The Your LIFE system adapts at every station, there's no minimum fitness baseline.

Cardiovascular

Stable hypertension, post-MI rehab phase III/IV, atrial fibrillation (rate-controlled), heart failure NYHA I–II.

Metabolic

Type 2 diabetes, pre-diabetes, metabolic syndrome, obesity, NAFLD. Glucose management benefits emerge within weeks.

Musculoskeletal

Osteoarthritis, osteoporosis/osteopenia, chronic low back pain, post-orthopaedic surgery (with clearance).

Cancer recovery

Post-treatment for breast, prostate, colorectal and other solid tumours. Supports fatigue, body composition and quality of life.

Mental health

Mild-to-moderate depression, generalised anxiety, stress-related burnout. Evidence base is comparable to first-line pharmacotherapy.

Healthy ageing

Sarcopenia, frailty prevention, balance and falls reduction. Our largest single demographic; we know what works.
