Today…
► Over 58M Americans are overweight; over 40M Americans are obese;
and over 3M Americans are morbidly obese.
► 1 out of every 8 deaths in America is caused by
an illness directly related to being overweight or obese.
► Research proves diabetes, hypertension, and
some forms of cancer are directly associated
with a lack of physical activity and poor lifestyle.
► More than 50% of Americans suffer from one or
more chronic conditions, including diabetes, heart
conditions, hypertension, strokes, pulmonary and
cancer or mental health issues, that could be improved
and/or prevented by making improvements in lifestyle behaviors.
► Only 1 of 3 adults exercise regularly; and only 1 in 4 exercise at all.

in America. And the sad part... it's completely preventable.
► Recent studies have shown that while up to 14% of
Americans have gym memberships, only 8% actually use
them…. 4 out of 5 gym memberships go unused.
