About Pro Fitness Planner
One of the greatest problems we face today is how hard it is for people to live a healthy lifestyle. According to a recent study published by Mayo Clinic less than 3% of Americans live a healthy lifestyle. That includes exercising regularly, eating a healthy diet, not smoking, and maintaining a healthy body fat percentage. Why this study is so significant is because living an unhealthy lifestyle is the driving factor for the most common health conditions we face today.
-
200+ million people are overweight or obese
-
116+ million people have high blood pressure
-
94+ million people have high cholesterol
-
96+ million people have prediabetes.
These health conditions that hundreds of millions of Americans suffer from ultimately lead to the deadliest diseases like heart disease, stroke, respiratory disease, diabetes, and cancer. Not to mention it's influence on anxiety, depression, mental illness, stress, and our overall well being.
Most experts agree that living a healthy lifestyle has tremendous benefits in preventing diseases, managing mental health, and improving our overall quality of life. According to the World Health Organization, 80% of all heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and more than 40% of cancers can be prevented by living a healthy lifestyle. It would be hard to argue that eating healthy, exercising regularly, and maintaining a healthy weight plays an extremely important role in our health and overall wellness.
Even though most people agree, very few actually succeed. This is not due to a lack of effort, motivation, or a lack of discipline. Most people at some point attempt to lose weight, start exercising, and eat healthier. The problem is that these efforts rarely lead to long term success. Many people that lose weight end up gaining it all back or more within 12 months. Most people that join the gym stop going after a couple of months. The majority of people that begin a diet realizes that it is not sustainable for a long period of time.
The problem that we all face has more to do with how difficult it is to live a healthy lifestyle while living a typical American life. The easy access to food, social dining, and high calorie low cost foods makes it difficult for anyone to stay within a healthy calorie range. The shift to sedentary jobs, being able to drive cars, having instant access to entertainment with the internet, plus all the modern day luxuries makes it almost impossible for us to be active enough. We don't believe we need to change the way we live . Instead we need a better way to live healthier that fits the way we live today.
Pro Fitness Planner was created to do just that. It is designed to help people manage their exercise, nutrition, and lifestyle habits all in one place like a pro. There is a big difference between a fad diet, a workout plan, getting a Peloton, joining a gym, and buying an Apple watch, versus people that make fitness a lifestyle. It is the difference between an ametuer and a pro. There is a huge gap in knowledge, skill, and results. The Pro Fitness Planner helps close that gap for people that want to learn and are willing to develop the skills necessary in making healthy a lifestyle.
There are many products and services that promise us that we will lose weight, get ripped, and live longer all in 30 days. The pros know there is no such thing as a special diet, magic pill, or breakthrough fitness tracker. It takes way more than that. The Pro Fitness Planner is a tool that helps share the knowledge and insights that pros implement everyday so it can make your journey a little easier to achieving your health and fitness goals.
