Exercise: Cheaper than Medical Care

Have you ever considered hiring a personal fitness trainer but decided that it was too expensive? Does the current economy have you thinking that you can't spend money on anything but absolute necessities? Maybe it's time to think of money spent on your health as an "investment," not an expense.

Dr. Stan Reents, creator and editor-in-chief of AthleteInMe.com -- a comprehensive new source of information on exercise and fitness -- encourages people to be proactive about their health. "I see a lot of people who spend more time and money on their cars and their lawns than they do on their own health," he says. "This makes no sense. If you spend a little to get healthy and maintain your health, you'll end up saving hundreds, if not thousands, in health care costs down the road."

Reents created AthleteInMe.com as a resource of credible and verifiable information about exercise for consumers of all fitness levels. In addition to resources on a wide range of topics, including exercise, fitness, and wellness, the Web site also provides tools that allow users to compare features and prices for various types of fitness gear and sports nutrition products.
