Foothills Sports Medicine & Rehabilitation developed the WiL Power program in January 2008 after recognizing a need in the Arizona communities to do something to help overweight and obese children live healthier happier lives, so they may grow up to have less incidence of injury and depression.
The WiL Power Challenge is a three month program designed for children between the ages of 10 and 14 and includes three supervised workouts a week with Foothills' strength and conditioning specialists, weekly nutrition education meetings from certified dietitians and nutritionists, fun weekend and home activities, cool prizes, and a $1,000 scholarship for the overall winner!
The WiL Power Challenge is positioned as a contest and the winner is determined by the percentage of inches lost in the waist per individual, completion of homework, and attendance. The winner is the individual who makes the greatest accomplishment for him/her self.
Participants must receive a doctor's referral to join the program.
Locations: Ahwatukee, South Chandler, South Gilbert, Arrowhead, North Central Phoenix, North Scottsdale, Scottsdale, Litchfield Park and Surprise
