November is National Men’s Health Awareness Month.
You come to the club regularly, do your workout, maybe sit in the sauna now and then. All good things that are part of a healthy lifestyle. But do you know your numbers? Getting your blood pressure, blood sugar, cholesterol, body mass index, and PSA checked are important for men to get a full picture of their health. Especially as they get older.
This month, The Alaska Club is proud to partner with the Alaska Men’s Run to support men’s health. The group’s volunteers will have preventative healthcare information, opportunities to ask questions about men’s health, and more at the following clubs from 11:30am–1:30pm:
- 11/11 @ West Anchorage
- 11/16 @ East
- 11/19 @ South Anchorage
Get your workout, learn how to spot symptoms, and bring your questions. The Alaska Men’s Run volunteers can help you connect with local support groups, testing, and more. Can’t make it to one of the in-club sessions? Learn more at ustooak.com or take a quiz to understand your risk of prostate cancer.
Beyond blood tests, focusing on your mental health is essential. Especially as we get into the darker, colder months of winter. This month our Personal Trainers will be hosting free seminars for members: Health & Fitness 101. This month’s topic, Movement is Medicine, will focus on how fitness affects your mental health. Join us at your favorite club to learn how regular exercise helps reduce stress, boost your mood, and support your health. Check the schedule here.
Whether you are looking after your own health or the health of the man in your life, The Alaska Club supports your efforts to keep all men healthy and happy this month and all year. How do you look after your health? Share your story with marketingmail@thealaskaclub.com.
