Project 18

 

Staying healthy is important to staying happy. But it isn't always easy. It's something you have to keep on your mind all the time, every day. And let's face it: you kids are busy these days. Between school, homework, and time hanging out with friends, it's hard to find time to exercise.

Here's the good news: you can do all those things and live healthy, too. In fact, all of the people you talk to every day — your parents, teachers and friends — are exactly the people you need to rely on as you work toward living healthy. That's because it takes teamwork to live healthy.

Look at it this way: I'm a pretty good quarterback. But I didn't get here all by myself. I've depended on coaches, teammates, trainers, strength conditioners, nutritionists — all kinds of people, for years. I needed their help to succeed. And you need your team to succeed, too.

Bringing that team together is what Project 18 is all about.
