The new edition of the "ACTIVA Program" of Las Torres de Cotillas is already at full pace in the municipal pavilion "Mireia Belmonte".
This initiative, which seeks to promote physical activity as a healthy lifestyle, is aimed at adults with different pathologies before which it is advisable to perform physical exercise.
"This proposal is based on the prescription of the doctor of this sport of physical exercise as if it were a medication," explains the Councilor for Physical Activity and Sports, Ginés Pérez, who visited a few days ago this group of participants.
This totally free program consists of three weekly sessions given by licensed monitors in Physical Education until completing a total of 10 weeks.
"It is intended that its participants, who in each edition are renewed, learn activities to improve their physical condition, become accustomed to a routine sports activity and at the end incorporate it into their daily life," said the mayor.
For better health
Thus, in a concrete way, the aim is to reduce the rate of obesity, reduce mortality due to ischemic disease or improve the quality of life of people suffering from blood pressure or diabetes, among other pathologies.
This program was born from the collaboration between the local council and the Ministry of Health and Consumer Affairs, and is nourished especially by the coordination between primary care physicians and nurses and the Torreón Consistory itself.
