Today's Pulse Health and Wellness Fest, taking place at Milwaukee's scenic lakefront, is offering locals an all-you-can-sweat smorgasbord of physical activity and health insights—and it's completely gratis, FOX6Now reports. The fest, embracing the mantra of healthier, fitter living is stretching from 10 a.m. through the afternoon till 3 at Henry Maier Festival Park, promising a physically fulfilling Sunday for attendees.

Highlights from what's touted as the first annual celebration of wellness include a high-energy HIIT class led by none other than former Green Bay Packer, Donald Driver, which is just the sort of celebrity punch such events need to boost drawing power and engagement, what's there not to love you get a workout and a brush with sports fame, all in one heart-pumping session. Fancy some time on the yoga mat or want to pick up healthy eating tips? Cooking demonstrations and a wide variety of fitness classes numbering over 40 are part of the menu as Kevin Canady, Milwaukee World Festival, Inc.'s Vice President of Sales & Business Development, detailed on WISN 12 News.

But Pulse isn't flexing just its muscles. The festival's heart seems to be firmly rooted in community, offering a completely free registration for a youth basketball clinic at 10:30 a.m. featuring Marquette Alumni Travis Diener and Joe Chapman, plus a few dribbles alongside current standouts Kam Jones, David Joplin, Josh Clark, and Caedin Hamilton, and Butler Alum Chris Miskel, as posted on Facebook
