The Worldwide Fight Against Childhood ObesityDale Croy
In February 2010, health enthusiast Dale Croy joined Visalus Sciences Inc. as a promoter, recommending the Body by Vi 90-Day Challenge program to improve health and fitness. Over the years that followed, Dale Croy has enjoyed sharing the victories of people who have succeeded in their fight against obesity.
Childhood obesity, a very complex health issue that becomes a growing problem in the U.S. In fact, “over the past three decades, childhood obesity rates have tripled in the U.S., and today, the country has some of the highest obesity rates in the world: one out of six children is obese, and one out of three children is overweight or obese.” (Child obesity, n.d.). Physical diseases and conditions are often accompanying obesity. Also, obesity may have an adverse effect on various systems in a child’s body, such as heart, lungs, muscles and bones, kidneys, digestive tract, and hormones that control blood sugar and puberty. Furthermore, it can take a toll on social life because obese kids and teenagers are more likely to have low self-esteem. “Childhood obesity is one of the most serious threats to the health of our nation.” (Building evidence to prevent childhood obesity, n.d.). Children and youth who are obese and overweight will likely remain overweight or obese into adulthood.

18. What Kids Are Saying… It feels good logging my miles and being in first place! My parents always encouraged me to get outside and get active, but I never used to listen to them that much. With World Fit ® , it was the friendly competition that made me get up and exercise more , to beat the other schools, and my friends. Being able to log what I do on a normal basis and to get rewarded. It feels nice to get credited for my everyday fitness! My favorite part of the World Fit ® Program was that we got to take a break from sitting in a class all day. It was a great way for me to get more alert, so that I have better learning habits when I go back inside to learn. I lost 15 pounds!
19. Recognized by National Press - But we have only just begun! Olympians take on childhood obesity through World Fit ® , a program that encourages kids to walk “ For an extra boost of motivation, each participating school is paired with an Olympic or Paralympic athlete …The participating athletes not only encourage the students but also promote the three Olympic values: friendship, excellence and respect, says Hall.” Olympic athletes help kids get moving Program aims to fight childhood obesity “ Program founder Gary Hall Sr. started the effort last year in two public schools in Florida's Dade County. The former Olympic swimmer theorized that after spring break, children anxious to enjoy the warmth would be eager to go outside. “ Hall hoped to get students walking about 10 miles each week. When the statistics were in, he learned that students had walked three miles a day.”

23. By promoting health, fitness and well-being, World Fit ® will help secure a better future for us all. THE FUTURE DEPENDS ON OUR YOUTH
Obesity is becoming an issue for developing countries around the world threatening the health and futures of the world ’s children.
The seriousness of the obesity health risk is a function of both our sedentary lifestyle and what we feed our children. It has become a top priority with U.S. leaders.
Tragically … Physical education programs are still being eliminated through budget cuts. While technology is now entrenched in our culture and promotes a dangerously sedentary lifestyle.
Obese Children and Adolescents Are More Likely To Develop: Increased risk of Heart Disease High Blood Pressure Diabetes Breathing Problems Trouble sleeping Mental Health Problems Bone & Joint Disorders Increased Hospital Admissions
Obesity is also preventable by education, socialization, and training connection to community and program.
Reach parents through “their” children
The World Fit mission is to promote a culture of health and fitness for children. World Fit strives to eradicate both childhood obesity and the toll obesity has taken on families, society and healthcare systems. Through Olympian and Paralympian participation, World Fit pairs these mentors with schools to inspire their students about the importance of health, fitness and Olympic values of perseverance, respect and fair play. By providing a community-based, school exercise initiative, World Fit will achieve its mission, while also unifying Olympians and promoting Olympism worldwide.
