MECHI MOMENTS OF THE WEEK
What are MECHI Moments of the Week?
A #MechiMoment of the week is a personal highlight when you feel truly alive—when your body’s movement brings you joy, energy, and a sense of accomplishment. Whether it’s reaching your 10,000 steps at a local lake, hiking with friends, or enjoying a daily walk with your dog, every form of physical activity counts. We encourage our staff and users to capture and share these moments as reminders to celebrate movement and maintain a healthy lifestyle—no matter how big or small the activity.
 Marty: My #MechiMoment of the week was during the Rockaway Beach Hike, with fresh air, ocean views, and the best company. |  An: My #MechiMoment of the week was hiking at Huddart Park in Woodside, CA, with my fellow community members! |
 Madi: My #MechiMoment of the week was walking 3–5 miles per day with my girl! |  Aryan: This week, I went to Lake Quannapowitt near where I live and got my 10k steps in there. It was my #MechiMoment of the week. |
FUN FACT ABOUT MOVEMENT AND HEALTH
Did you know that simply moving with others not only makes exercise more enjoyable but also significantly improves your health?
Research from the National Institutes of Health and the World Health Organization shows that social support helps people initiate and maintain physical activity, which can reduce the risk of chronic diseases such as cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and certain cancers by 20 to 35%. Being active in a group setting enhances motivation, accountability, and mental well-being by reducing feelings of loneliness and stress. For example, individuals who regularly participate in group exercise report higher levels of enjoyment and energy, which can lead to improved exercise performance and greater adherence. This social aspect of movement creates a virtuous cycle of enhanced physical and mental health, making it easier to sustain healthy habits over the long term.
