For decades, health plans have offered gym memberships as a fitness benefit designed to keep their eligible members healthy. That’s fine for some people. Some, but not most. Data from health plans has shown that group activities are 10 times more popular than gym memberships. And an ever-growing body of medical and clinical evidence confirms the health benefits of being part of a group activity.
“I’ve made a number of friends just by being a member of these organizations. It’s impacted my overall life by giving me a purpose…I have something to look forward to every day.”
