Physical Fitness Tips

Found in the 2008 Santa Clara Council POW WOW book.
Here are some great tip on how to be physically fit.

• Exercises alone won’t keep you physically fit. Good personal health care should be practiced daily. 

• Bathe everyday, especially after exercising. 

• Wash your hair at least twice a week. 

• Brush your teeth at least twice a day. 

• Visit your dentist regularly. 

• Wear clean socks and clean underwear daily. 

• Avoid eyestrain. Use good light. 

• Use only your own wash cloth and towel. 

• Stand up straight, don’t slouch. 

• Get plenty of sleep – about 10 hours per night for Cub Scouts. 

• Trim your fingernails and toenails. 

• Wash your hands before eating. 

• Wash your hands after using the bathroom. 

• Protect your eyes! Don’t put anything in your ears! 

• Don’t drink or eat from someone else’s cup, plate or utensils. That’s an easy way to catch their germs and get sick.

• Eat right! A balanced diet will make you feel good! 

• Get plenty of exercise to make you feel great!
