Pushing for Better: The Daily Habit Tackling Australia’s Mental Health Crisis

View descriptionShare
 

Fitness and mental health go hand in hand, and this June, hundreds of thousands of everyday Aussies are teaming up to prove it. The Push-Up Challenge is back for its tenth year, challenging the nation to complete 3,307 push-ups over 24 days. It sounds like a big number, but it carries a vital, deep meaning: honouring the 3,307 lives tragically lost to suicide in Australia in a single year.

Brent sits down with Nicole Cikarela from the Push for Better Foundation to find out how this massive community event has raised over $60 million for essential services. Nicole explains why you don't need to be an elite athlete to get involved, how the challenge accommodates all fitness levels with simple alternatives like squats or sit-ups, and exactly how the funds raised support life-saving work at Lifeline and headspace.

Hit play to find out how a simple daily exercise routine is bringing communities together and changing lives.
