About MedFitness

MedFitness is a student organization at the University of Michigan founded and run by medical students. We want to use our knowledge about health and fitness to promote more awareness and understanding of these issues in the community at large.

MedFitness hopes to help establish general guidelines for fitness and nutrition using simple, common sense techniques that are medically supported. We would like to stress that mental health and physical fitness are not achieved by fad diets, but by lifestyle changes. Our group and this site is dedicated to providing medically-sound information you need to achieve your health and fitness goals.
