Community programme promotes healthy routine during Ramadan & beyond

In Ajman, a local programme led by coach Abdulla Al Sayed encourages residents to incorporate healthy routine into their daily schedule.

These initiatives emphasise physical activity, education and wellness, encouraging habits that can extend beyond fasting hours.In Ajman, a local programme led by coach Abdulla Al Sayed has focused on sustaining activity throughout Ramadan's demanding schedule.

Al Sayed, who founded the “20-Day Ramadan Challenge,” noted a common pattern — many participants start the month motivated to exercise, but attendance often declines in the later weeks. “During the first half of Ramadan, people are highly motivated, but as schedules shift and preparations for Eid intensify, attendance declines,” he said. The programme aims to maintain consistency and support routines throughout the month.
