Has working from home, pandemic fatigue, physical distancing, gym closures, and/or home-schooling your kids caused you to forgo exercising?  Our Back to Basics challenge, powered by Humana is here to help! 

Daily moderate exercise helps slash stroke risk, promotes weight loss, improves cholesterol levels, and strengthens bones. It’s good for mental health, too — even small amounts of physical activity can improve mood and happiness. Autumn presents the perfect opportunity to reincorporate exercise into your daily routine.   

During this 10 day challenge we will provide fitness tips for both indoor and outdoor physical activities to get you up and moving. Your body and mind will thank you! 

Sign up today! Click "Yes," under "Ready to Join?" and invite a #HealthyNurse you know or share the challenge on your social media by clicking the links on this page. Are you ready?

I needed to mow the lawn and usually just push mow the outside by our fence and ride a tractor for the rest. But to add a little more activity, I push mowed a larger section and tried to not use the self propel as much to make me work a little harder!

I love the tips for toning at home. I definitely want to try the sliding with paper plates.

I feel like chasing a toddler with a 17lb baby in your arms should burn a lot more calories...

Best birthday gift from my sister-personal training with her twice weekly via Zoom. She also created some 20 minute circuit challenges that I can do on my own. This is doable!!!
