Fitness Challenge: A Blueprint to Achieving Healthy Lifestyles

The National Wellness Network (NWN) organized the annual ‘Fitness Challenge’ at Jal el Dib and Damour Campuses on the 22nd and 23rd of December 2020.

Healthy lifestyles are promoted through NWN fitness events. Many of our coaches and MUBS instructors teach the students and the community members about being fit through our fitness programs ensuring they have access to balanced and varied gym management programs.

The challenge, which was eligible to both genders, was divided into two categories (under 23 years - above 23 years) and comprised Strength, Endurance, and Cardiovascular fitness tests including the following exercises:

Upper body tests:  Pull-ups – Push-ups – Sit-ups

Lower body tests: Squats – Lunges

Aerobic capacity test: Jump Rope

Participants also have had the chance to access their body composition status at a stand for Herbalife nutrition supplements company, which was represented through its independent member and wellness coach Mr. Abdallah Abo Ezz and his team.
