Preventing childhood obesity – What you and I can do

Approximately 18.8% of children (ages 6–11)
and 17.1% of adolescents (ages 12–19)
were overweight in 2004.

Childhood obesity is nothing short of an epidemic.  The days of referring to and hoping a child will grow out of their “baby fat” stage are long gone.  Delay can be devastating not to mention embarrassing and, honestly, unfair for a kid to go through.  The truth is – it is not your son or daughter’s fault and it doesn’t have to be that way any longer!

These are the 3 success steps we will take to ensure your kids are becoming fit not fat!

1. Understanding – Nutrition is a science and when mastered, can shape and change your life.  Kids have enough science homework to do at school, so what I do, along with the parent(s) is to simplify the basics of understanding food and healthy eating habits. 
    

2. Investing – (a/k/a food shopping), Making sure the right foods are in the house so your kids can practice those good eating habits he or she now understands.  Also, investing time, making sure time is set aside to prepare meals and snacks, how to create meal times around a hectic schedule, and enjoy the benefits of bringing lunch to school and having a “power snack” before practice or a big game. 
    

3. Enjoying – Food is meant to deliver energy and taste good.  The myth that healthy food is bland and boring is just not true…and I will prove it!  Whether by having a cooking class for your entire family or by showing your kids exactly how to make plenty of quick and healthy snacks, I will make sure your child feels comfortable in the kitchen. 
    

The athletic edge your kid needs!

Young athletes working one-on-one with me or together with a friend or teammate gain an immense advantage physically and mentally.  My clients gain strength and knowledge that not only helps them achieve their full potential in the sport(s) of their choice, but invests them with key fitness tools that will benefit them for a lifetime. 

One of the unfortunate myths regarding the training of young athletes is the notion that resistance training is either unsafe or unhealthy for younger adolescent and pre-adolescent athletes. Yet numerous scientific and medical studies have demonstrated that a properly managed resistance training program is safe and has no negative impact on growth plate development. Furthermore, young athletes who participate in a regular, well-supervised, scientific proven strength and movement program experience fewer injuries on the field than athletes who train improperly or not at all. 

Every training session follows a unique and carefully structured lesson plan that is designed to provide balanced development while maximizing results.

How can I get my son/daughter started?

Have you made your child’s health a priority?

If not, are you ready to start now?

If you can answer “Yes” to one of those questions, then the next step is easy – simply contact me personally at (973) 668-5378.   

Once we speak, I will evaluate your child’s information, and prepare for our first meeting together.

This initial in-person consultation lasts 60 minutes and consists of discussing your child’s interests and goals, assessing current fitness level and starting right in with an introductory exercise session.  I can guarantee that you both will leave this session energized – and you will have taken the first step toward encouraging your child’s potential and ensuring his or her health for years to come!

The personalized exercise sessions are set up for an hour, and consist of a warm up, strength and/or sport- specific training, cardiovascular conditioning, stretching warm-down, and a short goal setting and or positive lifestyle discussion. Each session will be customized based upon your kid’s abilities and personal goals.
