May is National Physical Fitness and Sports Month
Physical Activity Is for Every Body
National Physical Fitness and Sports Month is a reminder that physical activity is for everyone. People of all ages, sizes, abilities, and health statuses can benefit from moving more.
The Physical Activity Guidelines emphasize that individuals with chronic conditions or disabilities can and should engage in regular physical activity, with appropriate guidance if needed. The focus is on finding safe, enjoyable ways to move: not on achieving perfection.
Importantly, the Guidelines also recognize that activity can be accumulated in short bouts throughout the day. Whether it鈥檚 a long workout session, a short walk, or just taking the stairs, it all adds up throughout the day and week.
This inclusive approach helps remove barriers and encourages people to begin at a level that feels manageable and sustainable.
