Move Arizona

C'mon, let's move!

Faculty and Staff walking on campus

The  U.S. Department of Health and Human Services recommends that American adults spend 150–300 minutes each week performing moderate physical activity, such as brisk walking, dancing, hiking, practicing yoga, riding a bike, or scrubbing a bathtub.

Move Arizona is a workplace movement initiative led by Life & Work Connections. The program spans eight weeks each spring. The goal? Encouraging University of Arizona employees to build the healthy habit of meeting those 150 minutes of movement.

Reduce your risk of a number of chronic health conditions, including depression, diabetes, heart disease, and some cancers. And get better sleep! C’mon, the University of Arizona, let’s move!

 

NEW in 2024

  1. Those who move at least 150 minutes per week for the entire eight weeks of the program will receive 500HIP points!
  2. Make sure you are also logging your activity in your HIP | Virgin Pulse account to earn daily points toward your $200 payout incentive for 2024.

CONGRATULATIONS! You moved a total of 2,279,125 minutes!
