The Fitness and
Nutrition Experts of today, will become the Doctors of Tomorrow!
John F. Kennedy wrote
in his book “Profiles in Courage,” that the Chinese symbol for Crisis is
the symbol for Danger combined with the symbol for Opportunity.
You and I and every
man, woman and child in America faces grave danger: The danger to the
67% of Americans that are classified as overweight or obese is a serious
medical and health problem leading to pain, suffering and shortened life
span.
Indeed, many of the
Subject Matter Experts that I listened to, while serving on the
Governor’s Task Force on the Obesity Epidemic made impassioned pleas for
help to stop this growing affliction. The Obesity Epidemic is the
Greatest Health Crisis in American History and it Threatens all
Americans!
You may be thinking,
“It is NOT my problem!” If you are, you are WRONG! You may be thinking,
“I am a hardworking, disciplined, dedicated fitness junky and none of
this is my problem!” If you are, you are WRONG! You may be thinking, “I
eat healthy, exercise and take personal responsibility for my health and
fitness- obesity does not effect me!” If you are, you are WRONG!
The average tax-payer
in America pays $175 per year in taxes to pay for the medical and health
care costs of taking care of obese patients. That may be a pittance to
you, but wait! Projections tell us that when our current generation of
school age children reach adult-hood, a WHOPPING 75% of them will be
OBESE! So you were right, $175 per year is a pittance, because with 75%
(and of course soon to be more) of the population OBESE the cost will be
10…20…30 times as much or more! Costs so high it will either bankrupt
America or America will have to deny medial care to Americans who can
not afford to pay for it themselves!
Now you know the
danger, but where is the opportunity? The opportunity is in YOU! You
have it in your power to change the future. Your skill, knowledge and
dedication can save American men, women and children from a life ravaged
by disease. You have it in your grasp to prevent cardiovascular disease,
cancer, diabetes and every other ailment associated with obesity. You
can turn Americans away from a future of pain and despair to a Life of
Joy!
The
“Fitness-By-The-Bay” conference is designed to give you the knowledge
and skills you need to become a “preventative disease specialist.” What
is a “preventative disease specialization?” It is exercise, nutrition
and a healthy lifestyle combined with the passionate desire to change
the lives of those facing the OBESITY epidemic.
The topics presented at
this conference are precisely what you need to know to have a successful
career in “preventative disease.” You may have thought of yourself as a
“fitness buff” or “fitness enthusiast” or “fitness professional,” but
our fellow Americans need you to expand your horizons to enable others
to achieve the same level of personal excellence.
Your Fellow Americans
need help and advice from “preventative disease specialists.” While you
are at the conference you will be taught by the greatest fitness,
health, nutrition, sports conditioning and sports medicine educators
ever assembled, the IFPA Faculty! The IFPA Faculty have put together
nearly 130 presentations of the most well researched, current,
scientific, useful and practical information ever available to the
professional and general public. The IFPA Faculty will present to you
the knowledge, skill and understanding you must know to take every man,
woman and child from Obesity to the health and fitness lifestyle. You
will be surprised to learn that many obese children can be turned into
competitive athletes and there are many ways to accomplish this goal.
Whether your interests are in personal training, sports conditioning,
group fitness or aerobics, the IFPA Faculty will make you better, give
you tools for success and help you accomplish great endeavors.
The conference is
structured not only to help you gain knowledge, heighten your
dedication, increase your desire and discipline, but to aid you in
applying all your energy-focused precisely toward achieving your goal of
excellence as a fitness professional and preventative disease
specialist. You will come out of this conference so focused on achieving

You are now aware of
