02 Max - Fitness for Teens Hosting 2nd Annual Energy Rocks
If you are a teen or have one, and you will be in Beverly Hills this weekend, there is a very cool event happening! The 2nd Annual Energy Rocks event presented by O2 MAX and Assemblies in Motion, will kickoff in the Front Lawn of the Beverly Hills High School in Los Angeles, California at 12:00PM on Sunday, September 30, 2007.
ENERGY ROCKS! will feature live music, Hoop Masters Basketball, competitions, prizes, a 1‐mile Run‐to‐Rock, NIKE Trial Van (to demo Nike foot wear and iPod accessories) AYSO soccer clinics, Polar Heart Rate monitor demos, The Princeton Review health‐related trivia, obstacle course, Budokon, workouts, free nutrition and skincare consultations, prizes and giveaways.
Participating companies and sponsors include Nike, Neutrogena, Polar, FUZE beverages, Naked Juice, E! Networks, LARABAR, Scratch DJ Academy, American Apparel and The Princeton Review.
Teen fitness experts, O2 MAX in conjunction with Assemblies in Motion, a non‐profit program for at‐risk youth, founded ENERGY ROCKS! in an effort to combat teen obesity. After a successful first run last year, O2 MAX and Assemblies in Motion have partnered together for a second year to continue to spread their message of teen fitness and a healthy lifestyle in a light that is favorable to teens.
In the midst of a national youth obesity epidemic, we have a plethora of gyms for toddlers and adults but there is NOTHING in the fitness market teens can call their own. Teenagers have different fitness needs than adults, and they prefer to be surrounded by peers in a friendly social environment.
O2 MAX, the club for teens opening this Fall will offer teens a positive place to workout, meet a friend, read a magazine, bring a laptop, I.M., study, download music, get a tutor, or just hang out. In other words, O2 MAX will be a place teens can call their ‘home away from home’ - only now they can associate the routine habits of their daily lives with a healthy and fit lifestyle.
