Students in Motion
About Students in
Motion:
The Students in Motion program helps sedentary,
overweight, and obese students at Weber State
University make positive changes in their health.
Our goal is to help educate, support and empower
students in designing a life-long plan for enhancing
both physical and psychological well-being.
The program is similar to the
Women
in Motion
program created by Julie Hansen, M.S., R.D., C.D.
Both programs are low cost* group training programs
for individuals with a
BMI over 27. Participants
meet twice a week for 16 weeks for education,
strength training and walking at Weber State
University. At the end of the 16 weeks, the group
will compete as individuals or as a part of a relay
team in the Ogden Half Marathon in May 2010.
