Michigan has over 30% of its adult population that is obese according to the new reports from the CDC (Centers for Disease Control).
The purpose of the PE/Wellness Department at GRCC is to continue to educate on the importance of physical activity, how to complete that physical activity with correct form, and also to teach how to improve your health and prevent diseases like high blood pressure, high cholesterol, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, stroke and cancers related to obesity. The job of the PE/Wellness Department is to educate and prevent unhealthy choices.
We also need to let go of stress, sleep more, and eat a healthy diet. Take action and stop smoking, eat a nutritious diet, and become physically active!
