The key to a happy and healthy life includes a number of important lifestyle habits—for both men and women.
Fitness is an essential part of these lifestyle habits, and Women’s Health and Fitness Day is an excellent opportunity to raise awareness about how staying active keeps women healthy.
According to the CDC, more than 13% of women over the age of 18 are in fair or poor health. Further, less than half of women over the age of 18 meet federal guidelines for aerobic activity. Also alarming is the fact that more than 40% of women over the age of 20 are obese.
Whether it’s jogging, yoga, lifting weights, or organized sports, taking the time out of your schedule to get your heart rate up will ensure a longer, healthier life. Women’s Health and Fitness Day is a perfect time to establish your regular exercise routine!
