Remember that REGULAR EXERCISE helps maintain physical, mental, and emotional well-being:

  • Help prevent chronic diseases such as heart disease, diabetes, and obesity
  • Exercise is not just good for the body; it’s also beneficial for the mind. Engaging in physical activity releases endorphins, which are natural mood-lifters
  • It improves stamina and endurance, making daily activities easier and more enjoyable
  • Promotes better sleep patterns
  • It can enhance brain health and reduce the risk of cognitive decline as we age

Elaine LaLanne, like her late husband Jack, has long emphasized these benefits of exercise and healthy living. They believed that regular physical activity is a cornerstone of a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.
