The US statistics are staggering…nearly two out of every three people are overweight in this country. As the obesity rate continues to climb, economic hardships
become a barrier for those who are trying to implement healthy lifestyle changes and costly gym memberships are no longer an option for most Americans.
Bronx, NY (PRWEB) November 11, 2009 -- Bronx based PERSONAL FITNESS TRAINER, George “HIT” Richards believes he can make an impact on the national obesity figures. By introducing Calisthenics to the average American, HIT is determined to make a difference. The popularity ofCalisthenics is rapidly growing all around the globe but it’s here, in the US that HIT plans to empower the everyday Joe. George is the leader in "Performanced based training". Kids are just one aspect of thismarket; experienced adult gym-goers are ready to train like athletes as well. The performance based fitness training market has been documented at over $4.1 billion and growing rapidly. 25% of theUS population is under 18 years of age and the second fastest growing segment right behind the baby boomers. Nowadays people get bored of just moving iron around. They want to feel like a kid again and have fun when they workout. We believe in a "Four D System"...Drive, Dedication, Discipline and Determination, which can be applied to any part of an individual's life i.e. business, personal, academic and family. “By using the weight of your own body, Calisthenics eliminates the need for expensive weights, equipment and gym memberships. Everything you need to transform your body can be found at your, home, local park or playground,” said Richards.
Calisthenics not only helps to achieve physical results but mental focus as well. It is truly the essence of ANY fitness program. Calisthenics is an important and sometimes forgotten component of fitness. It is one of the best fitness component because it requires resistance of a person's natural body weight. It also requires little to NO equipment. The Army, Navy, Marines Corp, Air Force, and all Law Enforcement Academies or training camps use Calisthenics as a physical conditioning tool to get their people in the best physical shape. Calisthenics promotes better health, fitness, and improves performance which requires varying levels of commitment to physical activity. These elements put together with a well balanced diet will help anyone achieve GUARANTEED results.
In the United States, some 60 percent of adults are overweight or obese, as are nearly 13 percent of children. The obesity task force estimates that in some countries, more than 30 percent of the children are obese. With a specific beginners performance based training program of Calisthenics targeted towards children, we hope to make a significant impact on lowering the percentage and decrease the rate at which children are experiencing obesity.
