Fitness session: “FitMen: Flexibility Meets Strength”
In this “taster session”, led by Yvonne Kühnemund, participants can expect a varied programme of stretching and fitness exercises that can be easily incorporated into everyday life and comfortably carried out at home. The aim is to promote flexibility, stability and well-being, as well as to relieve tension. The session is suitable for men of all fitness levels. All you need to bring is loose-fitting sportswear and a towel to lay on the mat (train barefoot or in socks). Afterwards, the health officer invites anyone interested to a casual discussion on the topic of “men’s health”. Anyone wishing to take part in the taster session is asked to register with Jens Panse from the University Health Management team.
