Lack of Physical Activity and Unhealthy Food Choices = OBESITY

The Scary Reality Is..... One in five children and adolescents are either overweight or obese. From 1985 to 1995 the number of overweight 7–15 year olds almost doubled. The numbers of obese children has more than tripled. About 80 per cent of obese adolescents will become obese adults. At the current rate, it is predicted that 65 per cent of young Australians will be overweight or obese by 2020.

How to design a fitness program? Consider your goals. Think about your likes and dislikes. Choose activities you’ll enjoy. Plan a logical progression of activity. Build activity into your daily routine. Think variety. Allow time for recovery. Put it on paper. A written plan may encourage you to stay on track.

Getting Started Start slowly and build up gradually. Break things up if you have to. Be creative. Include other activities such as walking, bicycling, rowing or dancing in your routine. Listen to your body. Don’t push yourself too hard. Be flexible. If you’re not feeling good, give yourself permission to take a day or two off.

Monitor your progress Assess your progress at six weeks after you start your program and then again every three to six months. You may need to increase the amount of time you exercise in order to continue improving. If you lose motivation, set new goals or try a new activity. Exercising with a friend or taking a class at a local fitness centre may help.

TV Commercials…lets look at some Childhood Obesity Prevention Featuring Shrek: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r-zEDbl04NY Childhood Obesity Commercial http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SkS2bhF-ljg Obesity Commercial: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMLumVfhWfs

Your Reflections What did you think of these commercials? How did they make you feel? What actions can you take to prevent obesity?

Your Mission IN GROUPS OF 4-5: Design a healthy eating program. Design an exercise program. Monitor your progress for 6 weeks by keeping an online journal and write a reflection to your Blog outlining your progress. Present this to the class as a PowerPoint Presentation.

Remember Being fit is a way of saying a person eats well, gets a lot of physical activity exercise, and has a healthy weight. If you're fit, your body works well, feels good, and can do all the things you want to do, like run around with your friends.
