Fall brings cool, crisp weather and earlier evenings. And just when you find time for a workout, you might be tempted to turn on the TV, sit down to a delicious meal or even cross a few chores off your to-do list. If it’s been hard to find time to break a sweat, you’re not alone. Less than 5% of adults get 30 minutes of physical activity a day, and only 1 in 3 adults gets enough exercise each week, the Department of Health & Human Services says. Need some motivation for your next workout? These tools will definitely do the trick.
Sharp Health Plan’s wellness program, Best Health®, has plenty of resources to help you stay active. These three Best Health tools are particularly useful when you’re working toward your fitness goals.
Tracking your activity is a great way to keep your goals top of mind. Whether you measure your activity on your phone, smart watch or another wearable device, most fitness trackers integrate with the Best Health app, so you can find all of your stats in one place. Download the app to monitor your steps, weight and nutrition with the help of interactive exercise trackers and activity logs.
When you’re trying to make exercise a habit, sometimes convenience is key. Best Health partners with Studio SWEATonDemand to offer unlimited access to hundreds of streaming workouts. Yoga, HIIT cardio, spin classes and more are available at a discounted rate. You’ll also have access to a virtual fitness community to share your experiences and successes.
Whether you’re ready to hit the gym or work out at home, Active&Fit Direct has a variety of options. Available through the ChooseHealthy® program, enrolling in Active&Fit Direct’s self-pay fitness program gives you access to fitness centers nationwide and a library of on-demand workout videos.
