Fuel Up to Play 60 is an in-school nutrition and physical activity program launched by the National Dairy Council and the National Football League in collaboration with the USDA to help encourage today’s youth to lead healthier lives.
The program also focuses on promoting healthier eating and more physical activity opportunities school-wide.
Health experts recommend that young people get at least 60 minutes of physical activity everyday. Being active for 60 minutes a day isn’t as hard as it might seem especially for students.
