A recent report in the New England Journal of Medicine links a high body mass index at ages seven to 13 to the development of heart disease in adulthood. As a result, the study claims that for the first time since the Civil War, life expectancy in the United States is predicted to drop an average of two to five years, with obesity as the main culprit. Intelligent Sports' goal is to increase participation in youth fitness and create better health and exercise habits for kids to maintain throughout their lives.
Intelligent Sports recently announced that it has signed a Letter of Intent with NO LIMITS Mixed Martial Arts & Fitness of Irvine, CA to utilize its Training Center as the pilot location for Intelligent Sports' Youth Fitness Center.
