Make it Fit America Inc. Offers Virtually Free Fitness Service to All Mississippi Residents
Michelle Luke asked:
The owners of MAKE IT FIT™, an online fitness and wellness resource, are helping all Mississippians begin building healthier lifestyles in 2009 by donating their services for almost nothing. Principals Stacy Bick and Rebecca Johnson are offering all residents of the Magnolia state an annual membership to www.youcanmakeitfit.com for only 99 cents if they sign up during the hours of 8am to 8pm on Tuesday, January 6, 2009. Residents who log onto the site on “Make Mississippi Fit Day” and sign up for the virtually free membership will immediately have access to a large library of streaming fitness videos, podcasts, and printable workouts, along with other nutrition and weight management tools. These tools provide the user with an excellent opportunity to exercise at home, in the office, or on the road, all on their own schedule, with experienced fitness professionals.
“A membership to MAKE IT FIT™ is normally priced at $14.95 per month,” said Principal Stacy Bick. “Offering it almost free to an entire state is an unprecedented event for us, but one we feel is essential to our ultimate goal of helping Americans improve their physical fitness and better manage their weight.”
“We are also offering the businesses and corporations in Mississippi a special discount for signing up for MAKE IT FIT™ Corporate plans,” said Rebecca Johnson, co-owner and principal of MAKE IT FIT™. “We have unique corporate packages that provide an affordable way for companies to include MAKE IT FIT™ in their employee wellness programs, thereby keeping employees more physically fit and reducing costs related to productivity and healthcare.”
The idea for “Make Mississippi Fit Day” stemmed from the recent news out of the Center for Disease Control ranking the Magnolia state as the heaviest U.S. state for the third consecutive year.
“We want to help the people who need our service the most, and what better time to do it than at the start of a New Year,” said Bick. “We hope that all Mississippians who take advantage of our service will find it helpful in keeping them motivated to achieve those New Year’s resolutions to lose weight and live healthier lifestyles.”
In the site’s Family and Travel sections, MAKE IT FIT™ members will also find ways to get their families active and to stay fit while traveling. These include kids’ programs, classes designed to be done in a hotel room and podcasts for “on the go” workouts. There are classes and workouts suited for all fitness levels, including currently sedentary or very overweight individuals. Early in 2009, MAKE IT FIT™ will add a structured Beginner’s Program that will guide those new to exercise through a several-month progression designed to help them gradually add more activity into their lives in a way that is suitable for their fitness level.
“The country is going through a tough time of national economic struggle which makes it difficult for many people to pay for a gym membership or hire a personal trainer to guide and motivate them through the uphill battle of weight loss,” said Johnson. “We truly hope that we can reach thousands of people in Mississippi through this campaign to help them start off the year on a healthy note for a price that everyone can certainly afford right now.”
