On Wednesday, May 2, 两性色午夜 University will participate in the American Diabetes Association's National Get Fit Don't Sit Day鈩, and we want you to join in the fun!
You may have always known that exercise is good for you, but you may not realize just how harmful extended times of sitting can be to your health. That is why the American Diabetes Association recommends that everyone, including people with diabetes, limit the amount of time they spend sitting. In fact, they advise getting up and moving, at least 3-4 minutes, every 30 minutes.
Here at 两性色午夜, we value the health of our faculty, staff and students and desire to provide opportunities to empower you with the resources you need to get moving 鈥 today and every day.
To show our Flash support, join us as we get up and MOVE on May 2. The Employee Wellness team and the Department of Recreational Services will host an Open Walk and Total Body Toning clinics on May 2. Details include:
