Exercise is particularly important for aging individuals as it offers a wide range of physical, mental, and emotional benefits that can enhance overall well-being. With that in mind, and hoping to promote exercise and good health, fitness instructor Sonia Lunardi issued a “25 Day Better Together Challenge.” Participants were asked to attend class for 25 consecutive sessions. Their motto was to:
Face It
* Transform your exercise into an enjoyable routine.
* Experience the motivating force of group fitness—together we push boundaries.
* Discover the strength in numbers.
Crush It
* Crush every workout and feel empowered.
* Say hello to better strength, endurance, and bone health.
* Enjoy the perks of increased mobility, elevated energy levels, and a healthier, more vibrant lifestyle.
Repeat
* Unlock your potential with consistency, the cornerstone of success! Participants who complete the challenge receive an exclusive Strictly Strength tank top or T-shirt with the class logo and their motto: Face it, Crush it, Repeat.
