ACTIVE Spartans

Exercise promotes optimal health and wellbeing, both physically and mentally. Our program aims to make physical activity accessible and welcoming for all students. If you're not sure where to begin, the ACTIVE Spartans Program is for you!  

The ACTIVE Spartans Program is an exercise program for currently inactive students that matches you with a Physical Activity Mentor (PAM) who will:  

Assess your current fitness level and help you develop a goal-oriented physical activity plan.    

Assist you in finding creative and consistent ways to participate in physical activity to make exercise a sustainable part of your life.  

Provide support, motivation, and accountability.  

Who is eligible? The program is geared towards students who are not currently physically active, those not meeting the Physical Activity Guidelines for Americans, or if referred by a Campus Health Service provider such as nurse or dietitian.

Become A Physical Activity Mentor (PAM)!

SPARTANfit is looking for MSU students to help other Spartans explore fitness options that work for them. SIGN UP to be a Physical Activity Mentor for the 2026-27 school year. 

Instructions to Participate

Complete the Online Registration Form which helps your PAM to understand your goals, motivation to exercise, health, and exercise history. After completing, a PAM will contact you to schedule your initial session.
