"Long-term health and wellness is a journey"
CHANHASSEN, Minn.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--As each new year unfolds, countless individuals set their sights on making resolutions to improve their lives. The most common among them? Weight loss and healthier eating. But by mid-February, researchers estimate approximately 30 percent of Americans already have scaled back or altogether given up on those well meaning resolutions. Who actually succeeds? A whopping 12 percent of us.
The Healthy Way of Life Company, Life Time Fitness, Inc. (NYSE:LTM), aims to restore the good name of the resolution by helping its members achieve their goals once and for all with Commitment Day 2011. Set for February 12, Commitment Day marks the early registration kick off for more than 100 Life Time athletic events.

“Long-term health and wellness is a journey,” said Ken Cooper, vice president of Life Time Endurance and Athletic Events. “To keep goal achievement in constant focus, we believe success is about getting wins and having something to shoot for along the way. By committing to something specific like athletic events, people have the target they need for a sustained workout cycle. The secret is simple. Commit. Train. Participate in an event. Repeat. Life Time can help you the entire way.”
Proper education, guidance and motivation also contributes to the positive and sustained results. With this in mind, Life Time also is extending to consumers a range of discounted services at its centers on Commitment Day:
