It’s about removing friction.
A prescription to get active makes the first move obvious:
go here,
try this,
see how it feels.

Some people use their prescription to try a gym for the first time.
Some go back after years away.
Some just want a reason to start moving again.
All of those count.

You don’t have to commit to a routine before you know what you’ll stick with.
Try a few visits. Try a class. Try a facility.
Then decide what’s worth continuing.

There’s a difference between thinking about getting active and actually showing up somewhere.
A prescription to get active gives you a reason to go try a place - not just think about it.

Most people don’t start because they’re stuck at the same question:
Where do I go first?
A prescription to get active answers that.
You bring it to a facility, try it out, and decide what fits from there.
Ask your healthcare provider about it.
