The MidSouth Health and Fitness Initiative 2015
The MidSouth Health and fitness initiative is a multistate cooperative effort to eradicate
obesity in areas that are prone to it. With health care cost sky rocketing and obesity
related diseases reeking havoc on the quality of life for the citizens of the MidSouth
Region of the United States, we feel it is time for a much needed, united front for change.
Our founders are passionate about improving the health of the community with a focus on
nutrition and fitness. A unified plan to provide access to quality foods that are healthy
additions to any diet as well as obtainable fitness for everyone that needs it is at the heart
of our mission.
With a history of events, programs, and case studies, we set out with one goal in mind; to
make the states in the MidSouth Region of the U.S. healthier, happier, and improve their
quality of life. Join us in this most important effort as we move forward and upward
together toward a healthier tomorrow.
To decrease illness and obesity due to poor diet and lack of exercise in the key states and
cities of Arkansas, Texas, Mississippi, Oklahoma, Tennessee (Memphis), and Louisiana.
