Join our Stronger Together Community Challenge! We are challenging all of our members to help us accumulate 30,000 minutes of physical activity between Monday, March 23rd - March 31st. Physical Activity has been shown to improve mood, anxiety, and improve self-esteem! Remember that physical activity simply means movement of the body that uses energy. Physical activity can include walking, running, gardening, dancing, and sports. Physical activity should be enjoyable and something that you look forward too! There are a lot of opinions out there on how you should do physical activity, what your heart rate should be, and how many reps you should do. However, don't do anything that you don't enjoy. If you don't enjoy running, don't do it. If you don't like Zumba, don't do it. All physical activity counts!

How do you record the minutes you've been active?

1. Go into the NSYMCA app and join the challenge under the challenge tab.

2. Record workouts under the record a workout tab. You don't have to put the type of workout, just the duration of the workout.

3. Don't have the app? Email me at mvazquez@nsymca.org.

We are all links in the chain, mighty on our own, but STRONGER TOGETHER!
