Are you at least sixty years of age? Do you sit for most of your day? At a desk, in front of the tv or computer? Then this is the class for you!
What is Stand Up? First, it’s important to know what Stand Up is not — it’s not an exercise program. Rather, it’s a program to help people to stand more and for longer periods of time. How it works: Participants meet for 4 weeks – around 2 hours each week. A refresher session follows at week 8.
What you’ll learn:
- How too much sitting time affects you and your health
- The benefits of standing
- Strategies to stand up and move more
- How to set and stick to goals to stand up and move more
- How to identify and address barriers.
Researched & Proven
- Stand Up is shown to reduce sitting time by 68 minutes per day. In addition, it is proven to:
- Reduce problems performing daily activities
- Reduce pain interference and intensity
- Improve energy levels and functional performance
- Improve general overall health
