BF4LN Trainers Workout with Houston Can! Academy Students

As we mentioned before, September is National Childhood Obesity Month. Today's youth are less active then ever before, and more in need of assistance and direction when it comes to fitness and nutrition.

On September 10, BeFit4LifeNow trainers had the pleasure of spending the morning with some students from Houston Can! Academy.  BF4LN trainer, Judith Ramirez, led the students in a workout created by Mike Fonseca, which was specifically developed for students just beginning a workout program and who might not have access to exercise equipment at home. Judith and Mike, along with trainer Jeremy Smith instructed the students on proper form, technique, and the importance of exercise and nutrition.
Telemundo was on hand to catch the action.

Afterwards, students agreed to take part in a fitness challenge that will monitor their progress over the next three months. BeFit4LifeNow will continue their training virtually, via their online exercise and nutrition programs, as well as, periodic training at the campus. At the end of the challenge, awards will be given to all participants.

All of this is possible thanks to FitFree, the non-profit division of BeFit4LifeNow.com.  Through FitFree, we are able to have trainers come to schools to help lend teachers and coaches a hand, by instructing children on the proper way to exercise. Online and in-person exercise programs can be customized for any particular age-group or sport-specific need.

Scholarships are also awarded to students so that they can participate in extracurricular activities, they might not otherwise get to enjoy.
