Saving Your Own Life for Less Than $1 a Day

(ARA) - How much would you be willing to pay to avoid having your
life cut short by a terrible illness? Most people would say,
"Anything!"

Jeff Bucher of Fond du Lac, Wis., believes the $1 a day he began
spending a little over a year ago saved his life.

Bucher's narrow escape began in November of 2006, shortly after his
41st birthday.

"I realized I was huffing and puffing every time I went up the
stairs," Bucher says. "Finally, I decided enough was enough. It was
time for me to join a gym and get in shape."

Bucher found the help he needed at an Anytime Fitness club near his
office - and exercising quickly became a habit. The fastest-growing
fitness club chain in America, known for its 24-hour gyms in small
towns all over the country, offered precisely the amenities Bucher
was looking for.

"The gym was quick and convenient for me," he says. "It had all
sorts of free weights and treadmills, as well as elliptical and
exercise machines, and dues were very affordable. After years of
doing nothing, exercising just felt good. I found myself thinking
about it all the time."

Weight loss helped detect cancer

In less than a year, Bucher lost 40 pounds of fat and gained 10
pounds of muscle -- and because he also acquired a new awareness of
his body, he noticed an unusual growth in his pelvic region.

"My doctor diagnosed me with follicular lymphoma and said I was
lucky," Bucher recalls. "Most people with my type of cancer don't
realize they have it until it's stage three or four. By then, their
prognosis is not good. My cancer was caught during stage one."

Bucher immediately began radiation treatments and within five weeks
was cancer free.

"This case is a dramatic example of how becoming physically active
can save your life. But for most people, exercise is a great way to
prevent problems from cropping up in the first place," says Dr. Marc
Manley, vice president and medical director for population health at
Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota.

"Being physically fit helped me endure the side effects of my
treatment," Bucher says. "Now, more than ever, I'm determined to stay
in shape, so that I'll notice any changes right away if the cancer
returns."

Many insurance companies now offer their members an incentive for
living healthy lifestyles. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Minnesota, for
example, reimburses $20 of the monthly membership dues for members
who work out at a qualified gym at least 12 times a month.

"The health benefits of physical activity are well-documented.
People who exercise are more likely to maintain a lower weight, and
our research shows they have lower health care costs than those who
don't exercise regularly. So, from a business standpoint, it only
makes sense to encourage people to exercise," says Dr. Manley.

According to the American Heart Association, regular physical
activity has many health benefits. Working out regularly can:

Help to maintain a healthy weight;
Reduce the risk of dying prematurely from heart disease and other
conditions;
Reduce the risk of developing diabetes;
Reduce the risk of developing high blood pressure;
Reduce blood pressure in people who already have high blood
pressure;
Reduce the risk of developing colon and breast cancer.

"I can't say enough about the importance of physical activity.
People need to realize it's like the fountain of youth," says Dr.
Manley.

Bucher is a true believer in that concept. "As soon as doctors told
me it was okay for me to return to the gym, I couldn't wait to get in
there and do some bench presses and lat pulls -- anything to release
some endorphins. I just wanted to beat up the cancer."

"Exercising is the least expensive thing you can do to improve the
quality of your own life," says Mark Daly, Anytime Fitness' national
media director. "Our clubs don't have pools, racquetball courts, or
saunas, but we do feature all the top-notch exercise equipment most
people need. At Anytime Fitness, we're all about providing convenient
and affordable fitness options for busy people who just want to get
in, work out, and get on with their lives."

As for Jeff Bucher, he says his medical scare reaffirmed for him
what's really important in life - his family and his health. That's
why he recently expanded his Anytime Fitness club membership to
include his wife and their four daughters. These days, it's not
uncommon to see the entire Bucher family working out side-by-side on
elliptical machines.

Founded in 2002, Anytime Fitness now has nearly 800 clubs in 45
states. Monthly membership fees vary from club to club, but the fees
at many Anytime Fitness clubs equate to less than $1 a day - even
less when you factor in insurance reimbursements. Based on their
current growth rate, Daly expects Anytime Fitness to open its 1,000th
club by the end of 2008. To find the location nearest you, log on to

Whenever On Wheels, Wear A Helmet

Although most skateboarders and roller bladers know to wear
gloves and pads for their elbows and knees, many neglect to
wear a helmet. Each year, over 150,000 enthusiasts of these
sports suffer injuries that require them to go to the
hospital.
