The Center for Disease Control, 2001 Report

Only 26% of Americans exercise 3-5 x per week, 46% less than 3 x per week and 28% inactive.

38 million American adults, 20% of the population, meet the classification of obesity,a BMI of 30>

Studies have shown that strategy focused on reducing inactivity, as in the amount of time spent watching television, is more successful in decreasing obesity and maintaining weight loss than one which emphasizes increasing activity.
