FITT4Life addresses Nutrition, Exercise, Stress Management and many biological, psychology and physiological aspects. Multiple factors play into your daily lifestyle choices and Carolyn and FITT4Life work to find the right approach that works best for you. Here are statistics to be aware of as you invest yourself in the life changing experience.

NUTRITION:
You are what you eat and keep in mind you are what you don’t eat! FITT4Life encourages a well-rounded clean mid-GI macronutrient meal plan along with an exercise plan that is right for your goals. If you consume risk-increasing foods and beverages, your overall risk of cardiovascular disease increases. Risk-increasing consumption patterns include “junk” food (high in sugar and saturated fat), alcohol, caffeine, tobacco, pollutants, carcinogens, and free-radical-forming substances and processes (ultraviolet rays from the sun, stress, etc.). The result is increasing risk of cardiovascular disease with every year that passes. If you neglect to consume risk-reducing foods and fail to practice a healthy lifestyle your overall likelihood of cardiovascular health decreases. Risk-reducing consumption patterns include healthful food choices in moderate portions, ample antioxidants, and adequate supplements (vitamins, minerals, amino acids, hormones and hormone releasers), along with planned regular exercise that is shaped for your personal needs along with recovery and stress reducing activities. Immediate results are increased energy, vitality, productivity and higher quality sleep. Your immediate and long term quality of life and quantity of life (measured in added decades) increases dramatically. YOU have the POWER to choose to be FITT4Life!

STATISTICS BODY COMPOSITION:
» Obesity has reached epidemic proportions in the U.S. As these statistics indicate, overweight and obesity have a significant impact on the health of Americans, and their health-care costs. Many corporations are now investing in preventative health programs RATHER than in health-care coverage. The bottom line is that skyrocketing premiums are forcing us to reconsider how the U.S. population makes decisions about their health everyday! Exercise and nutrition add up everyday for positive or negative contributions to your long-term health! FITT4Life and Carolyn will get you on track and keep you on track- for LIFE!
