Fitness and Nutrition Club’s April 9th Kids’ Tech University Activity

The Fitness and Nutrition Club at Virginia Tech is committed to promoting nutrition and physical health to students and the surrounding Blacksburg community. We feel it is important to make others knowledgeable on the benefits of eating healthy and engaging in physical activity for an overall healthy lifestyle.

Our goal is to find a healthy balance between eating the foods we enjoy while still meeting our nutritional needs. We will be discussing the importance of portion sizes according to MyPyramid and learning how to choose more nutritious options. Along with eating healthy, we want to show students how to make exercising fun! They will have the opportunity to participate in a short group circuit training exercise that involves fun moves to improve strength, cardio, endurance, and flexibility.
