There is a lot of information (and misinformation) out there about movement.
Moving your body regularly is associated with better health and living longer.
There are a lot of options out there. Something is better than nothing.
We have partnered with a company called Vitala that provides daily doses of customized exercise designed specifically for you.
If you haven’t done so already, talk to your clinician about getting onboarded into the Vitala platform. There are dozens of ways you can customize your experience – and for patients engaging in the Heartland Weight Loss FOCUS 2025 program, access to the app is completely free!
If you prefer to go about this pillar using a different platform, by enlisting the help of a personal trainer, or are familiar enough with physical activity to oversee this pillar yourself, that’s great too. If you need help and prefer to look elsewhere, here are some other options we like:
