In the pursuit of a healthier lifestyle, finding ways to stay engaged and motivated can be a game-changer. Quite literally, in fact! At MIT Recreation, we’ve introduced a novel approach to keeping our members excited about their fitness journey: Fitness Bingo.

This bingo won’t bring you boatloads of cash, but it will help you kick off the journey to a better version of yourself; our Fitness Bingo cards are packed with fun and challenging fitness activities designed to keep you moving and motivated. From the Run Club to strength-building classes like our Noon Free Strictly Strength class, each square on the card represents a different getfit program. As you complete each activity, mark it off on your card.

The goal is simple: get a bingo! Just like the traditional game, you can aim for a horizontal, vertical, or diagonal line of completed activities. But the fun doesn’t stop there. For those looking for an extra challenge, aim for a blackout by completing every square on the card.

What makes our getfit Bingo so effective is its ability to turn fitness into a game during our treasured getfit partnership. It adds an element of competition and excitement around the perks of MIT Recreation facilities, making you more likely to stick with your fitness routine and get those getfit minutes. Plus, it’s a great way to try new exercises and push yourself out of your comfort zone.

But the benefits of Fitness Bingo go beyond just the physical. It’s also a fantastic way to build a sense of community among our members. By participating in the same challenges, you’ll feel connected to others on their fitness journey. Plus, there are prizes to be won for those who complete their bingo card, adding an extra incentive to stay committed.

Drop off your bingo card to either the Z or A/W Center‘s lobby by April 26th for your chance to win any of the following prizes on May 1st: Body Composition Wi-Fi Scale, 60min Massage, Fitness Pack: Includes a foam roller, dumbbell set, and more!

So if you’re looking for a fun and engaging way to stay active, why not give Fitness Bingo a try? It’s a game-changer for your fitness routine!
