It might still be spring officially, but it’s close enough to summer to start cooking up fun ideas for the warm months ahead.
Are you looking forward to being outside in the sunshine?
Seeing friends and family who live far away?
Getting back to golf or tennis?
We all have our favorite summer activities. Now it’s time to dust off that list and make some plans. No matter what’s on your list, be sure to add strength, stamina, and agility to your goals. Because if you’re not in good physical shape, you’re going to be limited in what you can do.
Fitness doesn’t just support your activities — it enhances your quality of life and independence.
