Matt Brzycki and Fred Fornicola have collaborated again to write a timely book entitled Youth Fitness: An Action Plan for
Shaping America’s Kids. This book addresses a critical need for good information directed toward proper, safe
strength training and fitness guidelines for our young athletes. This book is a must for coaches in charge of
implementing programs in schools and team sports. And it doesn't stop there. Anyone interested in improving
their child's fitness, balance, strength, and flexibility would be well advised to buy a copy as well. Youth Fitness
will no doubt be a top seller, as well it should be since both Brzycki and Fornicola practice what they preach and speak
from decades of experience.

An Interview with Fred Fornicola
Synopsis
There are widespread worries about the fitness of America's kids. Currently, more than 33% of youth aged two to 19 -
more than 25 million youth - are overweight or obese. In addition, 60% of obese youth aged five to 10 have at least
one risk factor for cardiovascular disease (such as high cholesterol, triglycerides, insulin or blood pressure) Youth Fitness
: An Action Plan for Shaping America's Kids takes on the difficult task of reversing these grim statistics by guiding young
Americans in their journey to become healthier and get fit. The book outlines age-appropriate applications for building
strength, increasing aerobic fitness, improving flexibility and making better nutritional choices. The authors tackle
many issues that plague today's kids such as "the sedentary youth," obesity, diabetes and more with the hopes of making
fitness a part of every youth's life for now and in the future.
