The Commit to your Health film was a concept created by the CEO of the Westfall Foundation Kerry Westfall:

This film will undoubtedly improve lives. It took me two years to make this, I was very careful of what content I included, a lot was removed and/or reshot as to convey the most useful information. At the end of our first shot with Dr. Group, my production manager was talking to Dr. Group, off camera, fo[[r an hour or so, about various sub-topics pertaining to his filmed segment. Later my production manager made a comment "the most interesting part of Dr. Groups segment was the part we didn't film, after we finished his segment, he was candidly speaking; explaining things he spoke about, in his own way." Thus I created the "Q & A" where I sit down and interview everyone who appears in the dvd, and I even get interviewed. The idea here is to convey as much useful information as possible. The main reason I am doing this is to give everyone the information they need to improve their health, whether or not they have a neuromuscular disease. There are many uses and applications for this film:

* Weight loss; People wanting to lose weight, or just maintain weight
* Athletic Training; athletic conditioning, sports training
* Dieting; we dedicate the longest segment to dieti and nutrition
* Dietary Supplementation; we cover everything from CoQ10 to Multi-Vitamins
* Prevention of Osteoperosis and other bone disorders; This is an epidemic, affecting 40 million Americans and those in wheelchairs are at major risk
* General health; peop[le seeking improved health, with lower bodily maintanence
* Education; educators, students
* Those with a neuromuscular disease; I'm doing great at 31, CTYH is proof!

One of the areas I'd like to get you to think about for a second is the rising cost of health care in the united states, this DVD can solve this problem, because its contents apply to everyone.

So, let me start by stating what the intent of this film is. When I sei out to create this, I had alrready been working with Ed, three or four times a week, and I noticed peoples reactions when they saw me, it was awesome! People can sense my determination and desire to improve myself, while educating those around me. This DVD will improve your life, regardless of medical condition!

This DVD is geared towards young adults, because that is, usually, the time when people set the stage for the rest of their lives.

My second reason for producing this DVD is that I want to put all the income generated from film sales lnto my charities grant fund, which will all be granted to research individuals and groups who are seeking cures and treatments for neuromuscular disease. We will also make very large granits to other research oriented grant-makinh organizations, such as FARA, MDA, AHA and more!

Please use the link below to purchase the video, and remember, every dollar you contribute has a real potential of saving a kids life!

many parents have told me things like:

Thanks for sharing this with us! Chris has gone to physical therapy and it really helps. He has not gone to PT for awhile and he can tell a big difference. Just this week he asked me would I help him with stretching, standing (in his frame), etc. I am going to order this video and see if this will help too. Maybe he could take to the rehab center and maybe the PTs could help him too. So few know so little about FA and what the benefits of exercise are.

This is the EXACT reason I produced this film. Everyone needs to know that by doing what this video shows you, especially those with a nmd, you all the sudden discover that you can now do more, you feel awesome, you feel accomplished.. the benefits are exponential! So we need to have everyone know this and whats even better, by getting this film and donating to Westfall Foundation,, you are contributing to finding cures and treatments for NMD.
