What exercise routine is right for you?

Partner with your doctor to create a safe, personalized activity plan.

Staying physically active is one of the best ways to support long-term health, but exercise routines aren’t one-size-fits-all. Discussing physical activity recommendations with your health care provider ensures that your routine is safe and aligned with your individual health needs and goals.

Talk with your doctor.

Providers consider a variety of factors when recommending exercise routines, including age, existing medical conditions, medications, and current fitness level. Without guidance, there’s a risk of injury, overexertion, or even worsening of a chronic condition.

Additionally, your provider can help identify possible limitations and offer alternatives. He or she can also track your progress and help adjust your plan over time, improving both safety and effectiveness.

Personalize your fitness plan.

Maintaining a physical activity routine is about preventing disease, managing stress, improving mood, and enhancing quality of life. Talking to your provider helps turn general recommendations into a personalized, sustainable lifestyle strategy. If your doctor doesn’t bring it up, we encourage you to drive that conversation and ask if your current exercise regimen is right for you.

Your Wellness Wallet benefit can help support the active lifestyle you and your doctor choose by providing coverage of the cost (up to your plan’s annual limit) for a variety of items and services that keep you moving.
