Their Slogan for 2012 is "Exercise Is Medicine" or better yet "Exercise Is Better Than Medicine" as they continue to battle the biggest public health problem in the 21st century... lack of physical activity.
Exercise can reduce the risk of heart disease, certain cancers, dementia, and other diseases of aging. What most people don't know is 16% of Americans will die from low fitness/sedentary lifestyle. That's higher than the 14% that will die from smoking, diabetes, and obesity combined.
Bottom line... find a sport or two sports that you can stick to for life. Obviously we suggest tennis for your sedentary friends. Entry into the sport is reasonably priced and the time requirements are reasonably. Tennis is a lifestyle and way of life for both exercise and friendships for life.
