Studies show that exercise is essential for healthy cardiac function. According to the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute, physically active adults:
Experience improved lung function, and better circulation.
Lower their risk of heart attack, coronary heart disease, stroke, and cancer.
Exhibit lower blood pressure and overall cholesterol than non-active people.
To achieve these benefits, consistency is key. The Healthy Heart Spring Challenge takes place over a 12-week period, designed to help us make exercise a regular part of our week.
GOAL Log 30 minutes of activity, 3 days per week, during each week of the 12-week challenge. (Weeks are totaled Mon-Sun.)
PRIZES Achieve the 30 min/3 times per week threshold, and you'll be entered to win gift cards, a free YMCA membership, produce boxes from Mill Village, and much more!
LEVEL UP Participants who log 30 minutes a day, 5 days per week will be entered into a special drawing for a $500 gift card!
