With May being National Physical Fitness and sports month, make a plan and try and get outside and be physically active!
Being physically active is one of the best things you can do for your health, and it doesn't have to be hard or involve the gym. Physical activity is important for both children and adults of all ages.
Being active has many benefits, such as increasing your chances of living longer, decreases health risks, helps you sleep better, fights depression, builds strength, helps maintain healthy weight, and it can be fun with family and friends!
There are many ways to be active! Going for a walk, biking, hiking, canoeing/kayaking, dancing, gardening, but whichever physical activity you choose, make it fun. Include family or friends. You are more likely to stay physically active if you are finding some joy in what your doing.
