Registration now open for The T2 Fitness Foundation's, featured program, the T2 Fresh Start Initiative! Our comprehensive wellness program was created to empower African American women who have Heart Disease or Hypertension, to not only reduce the severity of their condition, but also develop the foundation to create a long-term wellness plan for themselves. Fitness training, nutritional counseling, life coaching, and wellness support and guidance will be delivered FREE of charge to 20-30 women involved in each 12-week cohort. Our fall cohort starts September 12th and is being held with assistance from Norfolk Parks and Recreation, the American Heart Association and Welfore Health.
PLEASE NOTE: In-person fitness classes for our spring cohort will take place in Norfolk, Virginia Norview Community Recreation Center in the evenings, with additional training classes virtually provided to participants. Participants selected for the program must be able to attend the fitness classes in person in Norfolk and must be fully vaccinated. For more information, email us at t2fitfoundation@gmail.com.
Outcomes From Our Previous Two Cohorts
Our first Norfolk cohort was held from January 2022 to April 2022. Our second cohort was held in partnership with Suffolk Parks and Recreation and went from May 2022 to July 2022. With the Suffolk cohort that just ended we saw great engagement in participants checking their blood pressure regularly, engaging in physical activity more often, and an increase in participants making healthier choices on a daily basis.
Based on data collected before and after individuals participated in these cohorts, we saw over a 132% increase in participant confidence with making healthier food choices when faced with life stressors. We saw a 78% in participant confidence inn walking/exercising for 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week, when faced with a busy schedule. We saw an increase in 64% of participants' confidence in their ability to make healthy food decisions when dining out with friends and family. Lastly, we saw an increase in 42% of individuals doing something about the problems that are bothering them. We are so excited that since participating in the T2 Fresh Start Initiative, more participants have found the confidence, tools, and ability to lead healthier choices for years to come.
