Men of Waterford - Do you want to start exercising, feel fitter and have more energy? WSP is delivering a FREE 12 week exercise programme aimed at men in Dungarvan, Lismore and Waterford City who are currently inactive.
The programme will also be part of a national evaluation, in partnership with WIT and a number of Local Sports Partnerships around the country, to learn what works best for men so that others can benefit in the future.
This FREE programme will commence in the first week of September and will be delivered by trained physical activity leaders. Programme participants will receive free health checks, step counters, and an information pack. Places are limited so early booking is advised.
What is the “Men on the Move” Programme?
• Men on the Move is a FREE physical activity programme that is aimed at adult men to get them active, have fun and improve their fitness levels.
• It involves twice-weekly physical activity sessions over 12 weeks that are led by a qualified instructor to meet your needs.
• You don’t need to be fit to take part; the physical activity sessions are structured so that you can find the level appropriate
for you to join and progress your fitness at a pace that suits you!
• During the 12 weeks, you will also have an opportunity to attend a 1-hour workshop on ‘nutrition for men’ and a 1-hour workshop on ‘well-being for men’.
What do I need to wear?
• Wear a tracksuit/jogging bottoms and a t-shirt/sweat shirt. Jeans are uncomfortable when doing physical activity and when wet.
• Wear layers. It may be cold some nights but you will warm up quickly so a couple of layers are much easier than one big jumper.
• Bring lightweight, waterproof top and bottoms in case of rain.
• Wear trainers/runners to all sessions.
• Bring a bottle of water to all sessions
