Children’s fitness becomes particularly important when we consider that childhood obesity rates are through the ceiling.

Posted on Dec 29, 2009 10:32:22 PM
January 2010 will start the new season of The Biggest Loser. Like most fitness-obsessed Americans, I can’t wait for it to arrive. The drama of watching terribly misinformed fatties battle their bodies at the behest of underqualified gurus is breathtaking.

They’ve lived a sedentary lifestyle for so long, and have so seriously polluted their bodies, and then you go and throw them into the gym with Jillian and Bob where they’re working out 4 to 6 hours per day. I’m surprised that something bad hasn’t already happened to some of the heaviest people.

You have to decide that this is something you will not try to do, but actually do. You will become a slim, svelt, toned elderly woman or a fit, ripped old man.
