This American Health Month let’s talk about a different kind of construction – the
construction of a healthier heart on the job site.
The demands of our work can be tough, so here are some tips to keeping your heart in the
best shape:
• Stay Active On and Off the Site
-Construction work itself can be a great workout, but remember to stay active
during breaks or on your days off.
• Choose Heart-Healthy Foods
- Opt for a balanced diet rich in fruits, veggies, lean proteins. Your heart will
thank you for the fuel.
• Stay Hydrated
- Hydration is key to a healthy heart. Keep water accessible on the site and
make sure to drink enough throughout the day.
• Learn CPR
- Be prepared for any situation. Knowing CPR can make a lifesaving difference
on the job site.
