President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports Launches New Interactive Website

www.presidentschallenge.org

The President's Council on Physical Fitness and Sports recently launched a new online program to help adults and kids to get active and fit.

The new website provides an easy, free, and fun-to-use interactive incentive program to become more active. Listed at the website are over 100 physical activities that a participant in the program can choose from, along with a password-protected personal online activity log to track daily physical activity efforts. Participants can register online for the program as an individual or part of a group.

Everyone can work toward a Presidential Active Lifestyle Award by participating in regular activity five days a week for six weeks. Adults should be active for at least 30 minutes of daily activity, and children for at least 60 minutes each day. Those who don't use the Internet can earn the award by filling in a paper log. Americans who are already physically active can earn the new Presidential Champions award online.
