2022 Dutchess Ulster BetterU Makeover Challenge
Presented by:

Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of women in the U.S., taking the life of one in three women – almost one woman every minute. However, research shows that with lifestyle modifications, much of cardiovascular disease can be prevented. That’s why the American Heart Association’s Go Red For Women® is helping women speak up for their hearts and change this statistic by offering a free 12-week makeover, the BetterU.
Powered by the science of the American Heart Association, BetterU helps women transform their overall health through small, simple choices. BetterU gives women an opportunity to achieve a noticeably better state of well-being and heart health in just 12 weeks by creating habits that can last a lifetime.
Locally, Antalek & Moore Insurance Agency and Central Hudson Gas & Electric Corporation are proud sponsors of the BetterU Challenge, a 12-week lifestyle change program. Twelve motivated participants will be selected to participate in the 12-week challenge.
Each participant will receive:
- Baseline & 12-week medical readings by Nuvance Medical Practice
- 3-month membership to Gold’s Gym – Dutchess County
- Personal training with Gold’s Gym trainers
- Nutrition advice from a medical professional
- Group support from other BetterU participants
- The power, resources and tools of GoRedForWomen.org.
Participants will be photographed before and after the 12-weeks, potentially interviewed by media, share their experiences on the American Heart Association’s Eastern States blog, and be celebrated at the Go Red for Women Luncheon on November help us celebrate the program by attending as our guests at the Go Red for Women Luncheon on November 18, 2022 at the Culinary Institute of America.
With BetterU, you’ll learn smart strategies and gain new information about improving and maintaining your health, along with the encouragement and advice of local coaches. Each week will focus on a different area to follow for a complete heart makeover. Live longer and stronger by taking 12 weeks to invest in your health!
