Mental Health Benefits of Fitness
- We R Blighty
We R Blighty is excited to announce that we are now providing FREE ‘PureGym’ memberships for veterans in Kent, within the following postcode areas: CT9, CT7, CT8, CT10, CT11, and CT12. As an organisation dedicated to the well-being of our Armed Forces community, we understand the invaluable role that fitness plays in maintaining both physical and mental health, particularly for those struggling with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and other mental health challenges.
Please note that this offer is for NEW memberships only and not open to existing members.
Research has consistently highlighted the positive impact of regular exercise on mental health, revealing numerous benefits, such as:
Reduced anxiety and depression symptoms: Workout routines help release mood-boosting endorphins, promoting a sense of well-being and alleviating symptoms of anxiety and depression.
Enhanced stress management: Exercise is a natural way to manage stress, with physical activity helping to counteract the negative effects of stress on the brain.
Improved cognitive function: Regular physical activity helps improve cognitive function, enhancing memory, attention, and overall brain health.
Boosted self-confidence: Engaging in regular exercise can improve body image and self-confidence, promoting a healthier sense of self-worth.
Increased social interaction: Going to the gym offers the opportunity to engage in a supportive and motivating community, helping veterans build connections and combat feelings of isolation.
By providing complimentary gym membership with PureGym, we are giving our veterans access to a high-quality fitness environment featuring state-of-the-art equipment and facilities. We believe that offering this opportunity not only empowers veterans to take control of their physical health but gives them the tools to address mental health challenges in a proactive and constructive manner.
Take advantage of this exclusive opportunity today and start your journey towards a healthier and happier life. Remember, a healthy body nurtures a healthy mind!
