FitLinxx: Benefits for High Schools

As levels of teen activity continue to decline, the devastating effects are continuing to rise, turning in to a national crisis - from a growing obesity rate, to a rise in inactivity-related diseases such as diabetes.

Schools can be ah effective front-line of defense for this problem. When students integrate exercise into their lives, and learn to make it a habit, they are more likely to gain significant health and wellness benefits right away, and will also be more likely to lead a healthy lifestyle in the future.

A key challenge is that most schools lack the staffing budget to provide the level of ongoing individual support needed to make a fitness program successful for a large number of students. Getting good results from a fitness program can be challenging for a beginning exerciser. With only a few teachers to provide guidance, most students will fall through the cracks, even if a great fitness center is provided. FitLinxx has helped schools address this problem by adding the Intelligent Edge to their fitness center.
