Study: Charlotte Is Out Of Shape
The annual American Fitness Index report is out for 2020 and it doesn’t look good for Charlotte. The Queen City is among the least fit metros in the state and the U.S.
The study ranked 100 of America’s largest cities based on health behaviors such as exercise, health outcomes and community/environment networks. Arlington, VA took the top spot this year, followed by Seattle and Minneapolis.
Charlotte ranked 67th overall. That’s lower than three other North Carolina cities: Durham (34), Raleigh (36), and Greensboro (60). At #70 on the list, Winston-Salem was ranked as the least fit of the larger cities in the state.
With gyms closed for at least a few more weeks, we have to take it upon ourselves to exercise. You can see the complete 2020 American Fitness Index report HERE.
