According to the Department of Health & Human Services, overweight and obesity are the fastest growing causes of preventable death in America. Nearly one out of two Americans are overweight and an unprecedented number of children are carrying excess body weight. This significantly increases their risk factors for a range of health problems. Adopting a physically active lifestyle at an early age can play a key factor in encouraging healthy behaviors later in life.
