Taking Action Against Obesity

A new study says life expectancy in the U.S. may decline later this century due to a sharper rise in obesity nationwide. The research, published in New England Journal of Medicine, says that if obesity levels continue to rise, statisticians may have to shave two to five years from the average American’s life expectancy. Such a sustained downward shift in projected life expectancy would be the first such drop in more than 200 years.

“This report is really disturbing me,” reports Master Charles Chi, comity leader and owner of Chi’s Martial Arts, "You know, we all have kids, and when we have them, we hope and we expect that our kids are going to grow up, live longer, healthier lives than we do, right? But a new study warms that the future may not be so rosy for our kids. They may actually live shorter, less healthy lives on average due to an epidemic sweeping through that population. Of course, that epidemic I’m talking about is obesity.

In an effort to combat this problem, Chi has launched a new program at his school called “Karate Kidz Fitness for Life Program”. This program, unlike other fitness programs, addresses the mental challenge of maintaining a life style of physical fitness. "Many people join gyms and go on diet programs and do lose weight. But the problem is that they gain it all back because they have not developed the mental aspects of fitness that must be taught with the physical if they are to be truly successful. “Our program teaches that mind/body balance, having the proper mind set and a good diet is essential,” Chi reports.

Master Chi has also teamed up with the President’s Council on Physical Fitness and will be administering the President’s test at his school. Chi’s Martial Arts is the first martial arts school to ever participate in such an undertaking. He will be providing awards for all participants who successfully complete their test.

“If you or your child are 20 pounds overweight please come into my school for a free month of lessons to get you started on the road to fitness”, he said.

He’s right down the block from me, this guy is uber McDojo. If I rember correctly he’s Dan Inosanto certified instructor, but through seminars. In order to leave his school you have to have have a doctors note or move 25 miles from the school.

Wow, will I become that dedicated too!?!

[Wounded_Ronin]

I only wish there were such a hilarious McDojo near me.

How the hell does he enforce that? What’s he going to do if you decide you’re going to break that rule… kick you out?

Unless you teach them to take care of themselves so they don’t get fat in the first place, which will lead to them having long, healthy lives.

He sends ninja after you. I worded it incorrectly, you sign a contract for (x) period of time I believe the shortest might be a year, and they’ll continue to charge you unless you meet one of the 2 requirements.
They seemed to have taken it out of the web page. www.nymatc.com

Can I put my Martial Arts program on hold if I am sick, on vacation or on a business trip?
Your martial arts program can be put on hold if you are going to be out for more than 7 days. You can call, fax or bring in a request to hold the program. Holding the program will not stop the payments. Holding the program will extend your expiration date.

How do I Cancel my martial arts program?
You would be able to cancel your program if you are moving away from a school (25 miles) or if you have a medical note. Refer to the back of your agreement. If you satisfy any of the conditions put a request in writing to the school by fax, mail, or in person.

That’s actually pretty reasonable for terminating a contract.

[TekkaMaki]

I don’t think that’s reasonable at all. It’s ridiculous. It’s saying “you WILL give me your money, even if you don’t come ever again.”

I’m actually glad there’s such a lame ass place in Lindenhurst, I am sure many of his dissatisfied clientele will leave and come down the street to join our Lindenhurst dojo.

If you sign a contract, you are agreeing to the terms in that contract. This guy will release you if you move or have a medical reason. Try to get out of your car payment because you move or get sick or injured. It’s fair. If you don’t want to be in that situation, don’t sign a contract.
