Be a Fitness parent

I read this post by Maldivian physical trainer Zinaan on his blog Redefining Intensity.

This very short post, I believe, will be very informative and beneficial to all parents. As a pediatric clinician I agree with Zinaan that obesity is becoming a growing public health problem across the world and we are no exception to this observation.

The cost of childhood obesity may not be apparent today; when the kids are young. However, if left unchecked, it is quite plausible that it would increase all sorts of lifestyle related NCDs (Non-communicable Diseases- Heart Disease, Diabetes, Stroke, etc.) and their inadvertent morbidities.

Thanks Zinaan. Keep up the good work.
