Stress and physical activity...

In a recent gallup poll 80% of US employees say they feel stressed on the job; nearly half of them say that they need help learning to manage stress; and 42% said that their coworkers need help managing stress.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention state unequivocally that 80% of our medical expenditures, are now stress-related.

Nearly two-thirds of adults in America are overweight ( have a Body Mass Index greater than 25).

More than 50% of do not get enough physical activity to provide health benefits, 24% are not active at all in their leisure time.
