and wellness throughout the life span.

Fonda and
celebrity friends will band together to launch this premier occasion of
fun and fitness. Commenting on the event, says Fonda, “young people who
discover the benefits of regular physical exercise are more apt to
protect their bodies, respect their bodies, and own their bodies.”
Throughout the event, there will be numerous chances to learn about
healthy living in the “Fitness Zone,” an area dedicated to vendors and
sponsors who are eager to educate the public in effective ways to take
charge of their health and fitness. In addition, participants will have
the chance to mingle with professional athletes, local fitness trainers
and other well known Atlantans.

World Fitness Day 2010 will begin with
registration and check in at the Georgia Dome at 8:30 AM, followed by
the fitness and health expo in the Fitness Zone. Dr. Sanjay Gupta will
kick off the event at 10:00 AM with opening remarks. The work out will
start immediately after, where each celebrity trainer will lead
participants in Aerobic (Fonda, Simmons and Austin) and Tae Bo (Blanks)
sessions. California Governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger will also deliver a
video tribute to all participants. The event concludes at 11:00 AM. In
an effort to include participants from around the world, World Fitness
Day 2010 will stream live on UStream.tv. The brain child of Jane Fonda,
World Fitness Day 2010 marks an annual initiative to highlight the
importance of personal fitness and healthy, wholesome living. In a
recent interview, Fonda said of World Fitness Day 2010, “Not only will
it be a tremendous amount of fun and a spectacularcelebration of good
health, it is an amazing opportunity for Atlanta and Georgia to
strengthen the mind, body and spirit of Georgia’s and the nation’s
youth.” With its compelling message and a powerhouse punch of celebrity
trainers, World Fitness Day 2010 is poised to be THE fitness event of
the year. Given the chance to work out with a “who’s who” of celebrity
