“I believe that the greatest gift you can give your family and the world is a healthy you.” – Joyce Meyer
History of National Senior Health & Fitness Day
The National Senior Health & Fitness Day has been celebrated since the year 1993. The Day has been established as a public-private partnership by the Mature Market Resource Center which is a national information clearinghouse for the older adult market. The Senior Health & Fitness Day aims at promoting the importance of regular physical activity and thereby shows the need for improvement in the health and fitness of older adults. A healthy diet will boost energy and immunity, and regularly exercising will let you maintain bone mass and thereby lowers the risk of fractures. Seniors are encouraged to get involved in the sessions that provide information about health screenings, diet, and exercise. They must understand that health and fitness help not only in physical activities but also works in improving their mental and emotional health.
