Residents of Naberezhnye Chelny jointed to International Campaign “10,000 steps to life” dedicated to World Health Day
This year it is being held as part of the events of the Year of the Volunteer Movement in the Commonwealth of Independent States under the motto “Health for all” for the first time.
The Campaign is aimed at increasing daily physical activity and promotes commitment to walking as the most accessible, physiological and natural way to increase physical activity, which does not require additional equipment. The event is based on the recommendation of the World Health Organization to take from 6 to 10 thousand steps per day to maintain a minimum of regular human physical activity.
More than 700 people of different ages took part in the Campaign, including from the City Health Facilities, branch of the Naberezhnye Chelny of the “Union of Pensioners” and medical volunteers from the Naberezhnye Chelny Medical College.
