National Medical Fitness Association (MFA) Week is April 20th through April 26th and Franciscan Omni Health & Fitness is challenging everyone to join in and get moving! Omni is reaching out to the communities that they serve and offering Members and non-members alike, the chance to come and participate. The MOVE150 Challenge focuses on getting participants more active, regardless of their abilities. The American College of Sports Medicine program encourages everyone to be physically active at least 150 minutes per week. To complete this task and make it more fun, the MFA and Franciscan Omni are joining forces and challenging everyone to MOVE150. The purpose of this program would allow participants to reach 150 minutes of activity throughout the Medical Fitness Week, utilizing a variety of programs/offerings in our facilities.
Join the fun by completing your MOVE150 card and begin a healthy start to a regular exercise program. Bingo-like cards are available at Franciscan Omni Health & Fitness locations and also on their website; FranciscanAlliance.org/Omni. Pick up or print a card and start moving! The exercises do not have to be completed in order, as long as the row/column is complete at the end of the week.
For this National Medical Fitness Association Week, non-members are able to meet with a Membership Coordinator to obtain a free week pass and join members in the MOVE150 Challenge.
