Stay Active This Winter!

Don't let cold weather hold you back—now is the perfect time to ramp up your activity levels.

Exercising regularly during winter is essential because it:
⭐️Boosts metabolism and helps burn more calories.
⭐️Improves your mood and chases away the winter blues
⭐️Strengthens your heart and lungs
⭐️Supports your immune system during cold and flu season

Whether you choose a brisk walk, a home workout, or a session at the gym, staying active is crucial for maintaining your health and energy throughout the colder months.

Don’t miss your chance to get fit this winter! Visit https://www.baysidefamilymedical.com.au/exercise-physiology and make the most of the season.

Men’s Health Matters!

Taking charge of your health means putting things into action, and sometimes, it may feel like a chore. Beginning to move and exercise, feeding your body healthy nutrients, maintaining your weight, or shedding a few kilos are all things you can and should aim to do. For some, it may make you feel good, and for others, well, let's say it takes a LOT of effort!

To live longer is not just the goal, but to live well and in good health. Commit to periodic check-ins with your GP and formalise that accountability. Small changes can lead to big transformations.
