National Fitness Day, this September 21st, is a chance for us to come together to celebrate the fun of fitness and also to recognise the incredible physical, social and mental benefits it brings to our lives.
Prioritise Your Health
In 2022, we are all faced with our own personal challenges, but by uniting through fitness we can find mental strength to help us cope. It’s easy to feel overwhelmed by events at home and abroad – from the cost of living crisis and rising energy bills, to global conflict and war, or environmental concerns.
In the UK, social and health inequalities increased during the COVID-19 pandemic – and this included the gap in physical activity levels.
The pandemic has taken a mental toll on the nation, as well as physical. That’s why this year, National Fitness Day can help remind all of us to prioritise our health and wellbeing, whatever the challenges we face each day.
By investing in our health and connecting with other people through physical activity, we can improve our mental strength and feel more positive. Let’s talk more about the hidden benefits of physical activity. With the right approach, it can make us happier, improve our sleep, help us switch off, to connect with other people, raise our energy levels, and increase our productivity.
By putting aside just 20 minutes a day to do something that gets our hearts pumping and muscles working, we can all strive to achieve the levels of activity recommended by Professor Chris Whitty, the Chief Medical Officer.
