Staying active. It’s not only good for your physical health, it’s essential for your overall wellbeing, especially during COVID-19. So don’t think staying at home more often means staying still. Whether you’re after a gentle introduction, ideas for the kids, or a power workout, there’s heaps you can be doing every day. Just start searching for the right thing for you.

On this page, we will be sharing information and content from leading partners and trusted sources so that you can kick start or re-ignite your passion to live an active and healthy lifestyle.

If you are new to physical activity, have a health problem, or are concerned about the safety of being (more) active, speak with your doctor or health professional about the most suitable activities for you.
