Walk The Terminals

BHM Art TrailDon’t spend your airport downtime sitting at the gate. Get up and move around by walking the terminals and enjoying the amazing art exhibits BHM has on display. Walking is a great, low impact exercise that promotes overall health, fitness and circulation. There are sculptures, paintings, photography exhibits and more located throughout the terminal. Get some exercise as you explore and soak up some local culture before your flight.

Stretch At The Gate

Stretching and moving your body is great for promoting good circulation, preventing muscles stiffness and improving energy levels. You will be sitting a lot during your flight so take the time before you board to stretch and do some yoga. You don’t even have to venture far from your gate, find a little space and stretch and move your muscles before getting on your flight. There are lots of video tutorials you can follow in the Sanctifly app and none of them require equipment or very much space. You can find them over on the ‘Videos’ tab. Take ten minutes to move your body before catching your flight, you won’t regret it!
