FitFamily
Child/Youth Programs and Fitness Programs have partnered together to promote the importance of healthy lifestyle choices and encourage Air Force Families to be active together. The FitFamily website www.USAFFitFamily.com includes resources, ideas, and goal setting tools to help families be active, make healthy nutrition choices and have fun.
How FitFamily Goal Tracker Works
* Families enroll in the program via any computer with internet access at www.usafFitFamily.com
* Once logged in, individual family members set fitness/health/activity goals and track progress against those goals
activities will support the ABC’s of wellness
* Points will be earned to track goal achievement and earn recognition through the official FitFamily website
Family activities are worth 1000 points each and families can log up to 4000 points a day (24-hour period). Activities need to be performed by at least two people, for instance one adult and one child to earn points.
FitFamily Bonus months are Double Points months:
FitFamily Goal Tracker completion certificates are auto-generated when a family accumulates a number of points equal to/above an achievement level. Letters from the Chief Master Sergeant of the Air Force will be sent to families earning 2,000,000 points. A ‘Family of the Month’ will be selected and highlighted on the FitFamily website.
FitFamily encourages the ABC's of wellness:
* A is to plan Activities that include all family members
* B is to Build healthy havits that will last a lifetime
* C is to Count progess; small steps each day make a huge difference
* D is to schedule Day trips, game nights and funtime to foster togetherness
* E is to Encourage healthy Eating and cooking as a faimily
* F is to have Fun as a Family while ereating healthy habits
Air Force Families Get Up, Get Out and Get Fit - Together! A “Family” is constituted as at least two people and requires family members (parents, children, etc.) be active together.Call Eric or Ryan at 247-9622. For general info call the Youth Center at 247-5601.
