Youth Try Fitness

Our Mission at Youth Try Fitness is to Educate, Equip and Empower Children and their families to become more active through Swimming, Biking, Running or a combination of any of these sports individually. We focus on collecting used bicycles through donations, yard sales and fundraising events to purchase used bikes. We then clean, repair and donate those bikes to those individuals in need. We create programs and provide goals to keep these children and their families active and accountable.

We can help combat Childhood Obesity and Cardio-Vascular diseases by helping children get involved in fun, age appropriate workouts as well as learn the importance of nutrition and setting fitness goals.    

We design a variety of unique workouts and organized them by appropriate age groups. We want to see you and your family hiking, biking, skateboarding, and various running activities within your neighborhoods.  We also provide motivational tips, activity logs, activity pledges and nutritional tips and information.  We want to share our success stories and spotlight Children that adopt our program. We will provide and implement group bicycle rides and activities and help Children train for fun competitive events offered in our community. 

As parents, we work hard to give our children every possible advantage in life.  Yet given our busy lifestyle. we sometimes need help or don't necessarily make the best nutritional decisions. We don't completely understand what eating right means to ourselves as we're battling some pretty formidable enemies such junk food and fast food.  We must also become fitness coaches for our children. This entails having a set exercise time with the right exercises for the right age, realistic goals, on-going rewards, and lots of recognition for a job well done.  Let YouthTryFitness, help point you in the right direction.
