An interview with Rob Bisceglie, CEO of Action for Healthy Kids.


The only way I know to approach that issue is from a whole child perspective. I have spent 15 years studying and experiencing this. I see no other way. All the issues that kids face are intertwined. You can't separate them out and say, Oh, we're gonna deal with the nutrition or the physical activity or make sure that they have a connection to a school nurse or make sure that they have mental health support. It is all those things, it's the only way to do it.

An interview with Hal Hargrave, Founder, CEO and President of The Perfect Step.


[T]he need is here.  The diverse populations are here. The equitable access and the inclusive programming is not. So how do we create that bridge, and provide that and see where it goes...The club made money by accident, by just creating profit centers that were equitable for clients by way of their price point, inclusive by way of their programming, and they were cultural changing throughout the entire landscape of the commercial health club.

An interview with Nate Wilkins, Co-Founder of The Ageless Workout.  


The years may be accumulating, but we're not aging, we're aging well. And so it's these people who have decided at some point that the barriers are not for us, right?  We may move a little bit slower, our minds may not be at the place that it was, but by God, we may be so much better. And we can help younger people matriculate or maneuver through the world. Our wisdom and knowledge and understanding about life might be beneficial to those who are coming behind us.

An interview with Dr. Jacqueline Kerr,  host of the Overcoming Working Mom Burnout podcast.


And so I think one of the things that I keep trying to remember in this, and it was really helpful to me is, for moms to not to think about being a martyr in this situation.  It's very easy for us to sort of play that role and do everything and then feel resentful about doing everything. That's not the role model that we actually want to play for our daughters in particular because we want them to see, yeah, you don't have to stand by the soccer field, you could go for a walk instead.  It's like that we don't have to dedicate ourselves so selflessly to our work or to our children, that us having our own lives and looking after ourselves and prioritizing our needs, that’s the life I want for my daughter.

An interview with Tarik Kitson, Founder and Executive Director of Active Plus.


But how about those other kids who don't really care about being an athlete, but they have the right to know what it means to live a healthy lifestyle. You don't have to be a basketball player or a soccer player to be active. We want to be able to show them the foundation and the importance of working out, of walking or running, how to do a proper push-up, how to run properly.  You don't have to be the next athlete, but this is why you're doing this.  I feel like a lot of time kids think, okay, like, I'm running or I'm doing this just to be a basketball player not even thinking that, this is important for you to just live a longer life, live a productive life, live a healthy life.

An interview with Dr. Brian Biagioli, USREPS, and Dr. Jim Borchers, USCAH.

For too long we have stood by and really in only certain little corners of athletics paid attention to these issues. But now, medical organizations, fitness organizations, athletic organizations have come together and have really decided that we need to have a standardization to this and we need to professionalize what we're doing.

An interview with Dr. Melissa Sundermann, Lifestyle and Internal Medicine Physician.  

You just did that 10 minutes, you just did a meditation. And that's going to be great for your focus, and, and just feeling better. And I think just like connecting to our sense of self.  When we're out in nature and we get rid of all the other distractions, it's using all five of our senses, which can be really powerful. There's not a lot of activities that we do that we use all five of our senses.

An interview with Ken Rose, CDC Chief, Physical Activity and Health Branch, Division of Nutrition, Physical Activity and Obesity.

And I think one of the things that we have to recognize as a result of the pandemic is that having places for people to be active and ways in which for them to be active in times of national crisis really is an essential function, not a nice function to have. It is an essential component of our infrastructure.

An interview with Dr. Dan Bornstein,  Founding Principal of DBornsteinSolutions, LLC and Military Sector Chair of the U.S. National Physical Activity Plan.

What is the secondhand smoke of sitting or physical inactivity? I would argue it's national security. And so if we don't do these things to increase the physical activity across our population, we really do put ourselves at risk of being less safe and secure. So individual behavior can impact the masses in this case. And so framing physical inactivity as a national security issue hopefully will generate more interest for more people to do more things to allow more people to become and stay more physically active on a regular basis.

An interview with Michele Levy, Founder of Zing!  

But that's just what today's kids and schools need. They need a little bit more structure, but a lot more creative play around movement and wellness. I'm just thrilled that we get to help people. As I said, if I want to work my butt off, I want to be doing it for a purpose. And the fact that I get to see people's faces light up every single day is, is wonderful.
