The Go Red BetterU Program is a 12-week heart makeover that provides guidance to help transform overall health from the inside out. The American Heart Association was on the lookout for six women, 18 to 75 years old, from around the Sacramento area to participate in this challenge to become a healthier "BetterU." Whether their goal was to lose weight, lower blood pressure or cholesterol numbers, eat healthier or be more physically active, the Go Red BetterU Challenge guides each participant to a heart-healthy life.
The six women have been chosen and are now on a path to a healthier lifestyle. California Family Fitness is excited to be a part of the process. Along with the coaching from Sutter Heart and Vascular Institute, the participants will also receive valuable training from a California Family Fitness Certified Personal Trainer for the duration of the challenge. Weekly updates will be available on our CFF Blog so you can check on their progress and see how they are enjoying the program.
If you are interested in participating in the BetterU Challenge, you can too! There is an online course available to anyone. Click here for more information.
A special thank you to the American Heart Association for giving California Family Fitness the opportunity to be a part of such a wonderful program. We are excited to help each woman in reaching their health and fitness goals and will be cheering them on the entire way!

California Family Fitness Teams up with Sport Chalet in "Soles for Souls" for the Haiti Relief Fund Lend a hand by donating shoes today!
California Family Fitness has partnered with Sport Chalet to participate in a shoe drive to benefit the earthquake victims in Haiti. All shoes that are donated will be sent directly to Soles4Souls for distribution to the Haitian people.
"We highly encourage everyone in the community to donate at least one pair of shoes," said Randy Karr, President of California Family Fitness. "It is devastating to see how the earthquake in Haiti has affected so many, which is why we have partnered with Sport Chalet in Soles4Souls to lend a helping hand and make a difference."
To donate to this very worthy cause, people can drop off gently worn shoes at either Sport Chalet or a California Family Fitness club in Roseville, Rocklin, Folsom or Elk Grove. Shoe donations will be accepted until Saturday, January 30, and will then be collected by Soles4Souls.
