Fitness offer at Niderhausli – Men should exercise more

If you turn on the television these days, you will see a lot of people who are actively involved in sports and fighting for medals in various categories. The Summer Olympics in Tokyo not only provide exciting entertainment, but also make one or the other think about how things are going with their own fitness.

Beginners of the “Men on the Move” project say, not so good, men. It was started by the Prevention and Health Promotion Canton (P&G) in Zurich, a department of the Directorate of Health. Middle-aged men who are not small or athletic, not as healthy as they would like to be, are overweight and want to do something for their health with like-minded people. This group of men is often involved in work and family, not moving enough compared to women, explains Annette Nicklas, who is responsible for communication and publicity at P&G. The diet is also healthy; Men at this age are more likely to smoke or drink than women of the same age.
