Obesity is a far more serious risk to
health than you may think, and it is now regarded by the World
Health Organization as a pan epidemic, whose prevalence in developed
countries is currently unparalleled by any other disease.
According to the Australian Heart
Foundation (2004), the most significant risks to both the short and
long term health of children now come from being obese or overweight.

‘OBESITY
AND WHAT YOU CAN DO ABOUT IT’
An individual is identified as being
‘obese’ when the relationship between his/her height and weight,
known as their body mass index
(BMI), exceeds 95 percent of the general population. Similarly, a
person is defined as being ‘overweight’ when their BMI exceeds 85 percent.

In an article by A. Magarey et al
(2001) obesity in Australian children has tripled in the decade
between 1985 and 1995, while the increase in overweight children
doubled in the same period, with 26% of boys and 23% of girls being
either obese
or overweight.
The primary onset of obesity for boys
occurs between the ages of 12-15, though girls are most prone to
obesity between the
ages of 8 and 11.
I believe that the most effective way
for a person to overcome obesity is through exercise, coupled with
appropriate diet and a practical understanding of the way in which social and
environmental factors contribute to obesity.

I have developed a specific Matrix
program of exercise, designed to maximize the elevation of
metabolism, thereby increasing the rate of which the body burns energy. This in
turn makes weight loss and management easier than conventional exercise systems which rely primarily on burning
calories while exercising.
The Matrix Program is very effective
at burning more calories while training and also after training is
completed Children and
Adults can safely undertake the Matrix Program, as it involves
exercise techniques, which for the most part, require no weight at all, as in the case of squats where the
weight of the body is usually sufficient,
