FITWELL: Getting Students and Faculty Active at UCLA – Campus Rec Magazine (press release) (blog)

The University of California (UCLA) implemented a program, FITWELL, with intentions to activate wellness on campus for faculty, staff, students and recreation members. The program is set to empower and motivate members, along with educating them on overall wellness, stress management, general health, fitness, exercise, nutrition and weight management.

Along with providing one-on-one services, including: personal fitness training, nutritional counseling, chair massage and Pilates, FITWELL gives patrons plenty of programs to choose from; with some being specifically tailored to faculty and staff, while others are targeted more towards students. Jeremy Chance, the FITWELL coordinator in strength and conditioning zones at UCLAs John Wooden Center, gave some insight on the various programs and classes offered.

FITWELL makes it easy for members to find a place to work out [with their accessible open recreation space in three facilities] and makes it hard for patrons to skip a workout with their Move Mail reminders. Move Mail, according to Chance, is a subscription-based email reminder sent twice a day (10:30 a.m. and 2:30 p.m.) to remind those subscribed to the emails to get in a small workout.

These emails include videos or links to videos for exercises that can be done in an office or work setting, said Chance. Each email includes a short list of exercises to be completed as a break Simply put, its a reminder to get up and move.
