Why get in motion
Adults 18-64

Our lives are busier than ever and many people find themselves trying to find the time, energy and motivation to be physically active. The good news is that you don't need to spend hours in a gym in order to feel better and have more energy. Check out the 23 ½ hours video (it's only 9.5 min) from Canada's own Dr. Mike Evans!

Here are a few of our favourite reasons for adults to get "in motion":

  • It's a Stress Buster - even short bouts of activity (10 minutes) can improve your mood and help to manage stress.
  • It's Perfect "Me" Time - with increased demands on our time and energy, a walk around the block or trip to the gym may be the perfect time to focus on yourself.
  • It's a Great Way to Connect - gather up your family or call up a friend and catch up over a stroll in the neighbourhood or local park.
