Move It Monday: The Family That Walks Together Talks Together

From our friends at Move It Monday:

It’s the end of the year, and with the holidays and New Year’s, you’re probably spending more time with your friends and family than you usually do. Maintain a fitness routine during the holidays by rallying your seasonal support system to keep moving this Monday.

A study looking at group fitness showed that physical, mental, and emotional quality of life improves when participants exercise together. It could also lead to a significant improvement in mood and well-being.

So, instead of working out solo, grab a friend, or your whole family. Here are some fun group fitness ideas:

• Take a fitness class together like Zumba or Pilates
• Walk or jog a Monday Mile
• Grab some bikes and take a bike ride
• Do some mini-exercises together
• Sign-up for a dance class, where partners are part of the fun!
• Roll out your mats and take a yoga class
• Organize a game in a court, like basketball or volleyball

This holiday season do some group fitness with your family and friends on Monday to be happy and healthy, together. Happy Holidays from Move It Monday!
