Speakers Bureau Topics
OPTIMAL AGING: REWINDING THE CLOCK
Each of us has three life clocks. While we have no control over our chronological clock, lifestyle has a significant impact on the rate of our biological and psychological aging. Dr. Hewitt enlightens, encourages and stimulates you to incorporate practical physical activity, the only “Fountain of Youth,” into the aging processes.
FOREVER FIT: YOUR HEALTHY WEIGHT
Societal “ideal weight” often bears little resemblance to your healthy weight. Culture, lifestyle, individual physiology and your eating/dieting history determines what weight you can expect to achieve and your potential for maintaining that healthy weight. Dr. Hewitt’s fun and thought-provoking presentation exposes weight saboteurs, defines a truly healthy weight and empowers you to achieve your goals.
ACTIVE FOR LIFE: A PRACTICAL EXERCISE PRESCRIPTION
Lifestyle has as much effect – or more – as genetics in determining lifelong vitality and survival. Using physical activity as a foundation for healthy living, learn what is needed to maintain cardiovascular fitness, muscular strength and endurance, flexibility, a healthy body composition, balance and agility. You can develop a program that will prevent dysfunction and disease, or establish one that will also promote optimal health, enhanced fitness and improved physical performance.
