The Asia-Pacific region is rapidly catching up to the US's startling obesity statistics. More than 7 million Australian adults aged 18 and over are overweight, with New Zealand and Singapore also beginning to feel the strain. To compound this problem, many countries in our region are facing an aging demographic as well as an expanding national waistline.

There are significant health effects associated with aging and being overweight. As these effects begin to have an impact, many people are resolving to "get fit for life." In some cases, this is the first time they are starting a formal exercise program. And as with commencing any activity for the first time, they need to be introduced slowly and in a supportive environment.

BODYVIVE ^TM has been designed to provide a low-impact workout in a community environment that enables participants to train at their own pace.

By responding to the needs of those starting out in fitness and those wishing to retain their fitness into their later years, BODYVIVE ^TM is a program meeting the needs of the here and now.
