Healthy Hearts at the Y

February is American Heart Month, a time when all people can focus on their health and well-being. Regular exercise and activity improve factors linked to cardiovascular health, resulting in lower blood pressure, healthier cholesterol levels, and better blood sugar regulation. Other actions such as trying something new, giving back to your community, and deepening relationships with others can also fill your heart.

Join our Healthy Heart Challenge

To honor our hearts, our health, and you, our amazing Y members, we’re inviting you to join us in the Y Healthy Heart Challenge. 

Here’s how it works:
