Abstract Background Chronic diseases are a considerable burden to health systems, communities, and patients. Much of this burden, however, could be prevented if interventions effective in reducing chronic disease risks were routinely implemented.

This is a state-of-the-art review of historical developments, current approaches and recommended future directions in physical activity (PA) research, practice policy. Since the early epidemiological studies 1950s, PA research has developed from within biomedical paradigm. There now strong evidence base linking with positive health outcomes. currently understood as multi-sector issue, requiring solution (e.g. transport, urban design, sport), resulting multiple individual societal benefits addresses Sustainable Development Goals), however, there disconnect between interventions, policy practice. may be due to limited cross-sector collaboration between, within, public private sectors. Furthermore, mix instruments employed by governments implement date been dominated soft communication) rather than hard options fiscal). To progress promotion, we need move beyond outcome intervention generation focus on testing efficacy highly controlled settings), more complex, real world, politically informed, multi-sector, scale-up policies, while concurrently collecting data evaluate such efforts natural experiments evaluations process). programs benefit greater incorporation considerations, so that proposed interventions policies are designed potential political constraints mind. We conclude providing call action advance understanding role politics PA, order develop informed PA.
