Texas Association of Counties’ new Healthy County program “Sonic Boom” is here and ready to help you live a healthier life. Employees and covered spouses can now participate via the new Healthy County’s program Sonic Boom portal.
Here are some things you can do in your new wellness program:
- Contests! You can create your very own contests AND compete in Healthy County contests? Employees that complete three of four Healthy County contests will earn a $50 Boomer Bucks incentive that can be redeemed for merchandise and/or gift cards! The first Healthy County challenge began on March 11.
- Academy! View articles, videos, and other self-paced educational content to help with optimal nutrition, financial well-being, and more.
- Goals and Trackers! Use our fun and automated goals and trackers to keep tabs on your hydration, fruit/veggie intake, physical activity, mood, weight, and more. Hit your daily goals in each category.
- Sonic Striding! Sonic Striding involves wearing an activity tracking device that will track all your activity, including walking, running, working out – you name it. The activity data is stored in your device’s app on your mobile device, and once registered on the Sonic Boom site, will be uploaded to your account automatically. Use your own Fitbit, Garmin, Striiv, Apple Watch and Misfit devices. We even support apps like Strava, Fitbit Mobile-Track (iPhone only), Apple Health Google Fit, Microsoft Health/Band, too. All existing devices used with the prior Healthy County Provant portal are compatible with Sonic Boom.
