Abstract
The greatest cause for concern comes from the crew in operational submarines and the younger crew. Physical activity profile of the crew when at sea cannot be changed and greater research is required to assess the long-term health effects of physical inactivity in this group. However, what can be modified are the work schedules for refit submarines and operational submarines when in harbour. Targeted interventions and strategies are required to establish sustainable behaviour patterns with regards to physical activity in these groups.
