Why is staying active important?
Because your well-being depends on it. You'll feel better and look better, every day.
When you make staying active part of your daily life, you have more energy. You're more alert. You do better at school or work. And you're more sure of yourself.
Fitness is about improving muscular strength and endurance, cardiorespiratory endurance, and flexibility through regular physical activity. This includes things like cleaning the garage, lifting, and carrying groceries.
Remember, It's never too late to be more active. The time to begin is right now. You'll start to notice the difference right away - for both your mind and your body. So walk the dog and ride your bike, alone or with friends and family. You have one life, so make the most of it - take the Challenge.
