FITVEST is the Ultimate Solution

• Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT)

– Imagine working out and not having to do anything intense or painful

– But really it works:

• Weight-bearing endurance exercise not only burns fat but it strengthens the heart, muscles, brain, bone density, increases concentration, and slows the ageing process

• Frequent hypergravity conditioning, postural adjustment, and “fidgeting” burns calories long-term… whether you know it or not

• AND NOW… we are also able to monitor, optimize and gamify the casual experience of daily living
