Michelle Obama’s “Let’s Move” campaign is geared towards the prevention of obesity by enabling our communities with the knowledge and action programs to combat this national epidemic. How is this related to anti aging, you might ask? Well this very serious epidemic has widespread impact to our country! Here is how this impacts us all –
- Health: First and foremost is the impact of obesity to our health. Children are getting serious diseases at a younger age which prematurely subjects them to the deterioration of their health and bodies. Diabetes, asthma and high blood pressure are a few examples of this.
- Emotional Impact: The pressures of our society can definitely take a toll on individuals, across all generations. Obesity impacts our physical performance, self image, confidence levels and social interaction in a negative way.
- Financial: The costs across individual and nationwide healthcare increases. Missing school and work impacts the productivity of our society. This impacts both our family and occupational lives.
- Decrease of opportunity: We are a country with endless opportunities. Granted, there are specific fields that have physical requirements. Obesity is usually one of the top factors that do not meet the guidelines. One might comment that there are other opportunities that one can pursue, however, think about the impact that this could have in fields such as national security. Can our lack of manpower lead to bigger issues?
Nationwide Fitness Center, Fitwize 4 Kids is geared to address these items.
- Specialized physical training: Fitwize 4 Kids is an innovative concept that combines resistance circuit training with a world-class nutrition curriculum and is specifically designed for kids between the ages of 6 1/2 to 15 yrs. The assisted 45-minute program is a quality outlet that promotes self-esteem, healthy living and fitness in a fun and positive environment.
- Dedicated to increasing self confidence
- Free Nutritional Seminars: Whole food specialists and nutritionists provide seminars that include family activities to make nutrition fun, functional and worthwhile. Kids participate in an interactive program which teaches them how to incorporate good nutrition into their daily routine.
- Promote Healthy Lifestyles: Per Fitwize4Kids.com, “The American Dietetic Association indicates that the ‘health status of US children has generally improved over the past 3 decades; however, the number of children who are overweight more than doubled. This change has broadened the focus of dietary guidance to address nutrient over consumption, physical activity patterns, and the attainment of optimal health through chronic disease prevention.’ An epidemic of this proportion requires the help of every man, woman and child in our society. Unfortunately, today's highly competitive, technology driven hectic work and home lifestyle means that most moms and dads don't have time to practice good fitness, nutrition and health habits themselves. Fitwize4Kids helps in various ways. For example, parents can learn new ways to cook meals and Fitwize4Kids even holds a “Walk Thru the Aisles” at local supermarkets with parents to provide education regarding better food choices.
- Foster Care Outreach: There are programs dedicated to helping foster care children within the community.
Per Fitwize4Kids CEO, Alex Duran, As "The Nation’s First Healthy Lifestyle Center Just For Kids," our nutrition, health, and fitnessprograms are specifically designed to meet the physiological needs of adolescent and pre-adolescent bodies, in a fun, exciting environment.
