HR Connections Launches Fitness Challenge

Team-Strength
Ready Set Go
HR Connections has launched an 8-week fitness challenge,” Ready, Set, Go!” Whether you’re a new exerciser or a seasoned athlete, this challenge will help you stay motivated and fit with the support of your peers. Ready, Set Go! is open to all members of the UMMS Gold-Silver-Bronze health plans and will begin on February 6.
How to join the challenge: Log into the platform (http://www.myactivehealth.com/ummc)  and create or join a team. Invite people to join your team by sending invites through the platform, or browse a list of teams that have open spots.
Set healthy goals: Once you have joined, you can choose to track exercise minutes, pedometer steps, and/or weight. Each week, you’ll try to stay consistent and meet a weekly health goal. When you feel like you’ve hit a rut, your teammates will help motivate you to succeed.
Track your activities: Chart your progress toward better health. Log your exercise minutes and/or pedometer steps to meet your weekly goals and help your team’s score. You can easily track from your computer, mobile phone via text messaging or mobile web, or through your team captain. Just be sure to track before the 11:59 PM CT deadline each Tuesday!
Succeed together: Provide encouragement, motivating notes, and healthy tips to your teammates and coworkers. With Ready, Set, Go, improving your fitness and leading a healthier life will be easy, fun and social!
