“We fully support the initiative but believe every day should be RUOK? Day,” she said.
“People might not realise the difference a gym workout can make to your mental, as well as your physical, health so that’s why we are offering free training on the day.
“We hope stacks of people take us up on the offer and enjoy the benefits; we will also have a merchandise and information table on the day too so please can access even more support.”
Agreeing wholeheartedly with the benefits of working out to improve mental health, Anytime Fitness Revesby manager Dee Domes is offering a ‘train with a mate’ for free opportunity on Thursday.
Dee says the RUOK? Day initiative is “sensational”.
“I’ve had personal experience with a friend and fully appreciate the difference just asking that first, simple question,” she said.
“It can create the pathway then for people to feel comfortable reaching out knowing that you are interested in them and care.”
For good mental health, Dee said it was essential to incorporate exercise into your daily life.
“It’s better than any drug; exercise releases natural endorphins into the body to lift us up and make us feel better, it’s nature’s mental health medicine.
“Find out for yourself on RUOK? Day and come down to Anytime Fitness Revesby and train with a mate for free.”
