MEMPHIS, Tenn., Aug. 25, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — The wait is finally over. Mid-Southerners can now use Methodist Le Bonheur Healthcare’s new Healthier 901 fitness app to track their progress toward the Healthier 901 Challenge to lose one million pounds in three years.

The free tool provides accountability for those participating in the challenge, along with numerous resources to support challenge participants, including articles about healthy living, pre-recorded workouts ranging from low-impact to high-intensity interval training, and the ability to log milestones like steps, calories, and weight loss.

Participants who use the free Healthier 901 fitness tool can track their contribution toward the million-pound goal. While the app will track the community’s overall weight loss progress, information surrounding personal fitness transformations are only accessible to individual users.

The free app can be downloaded on iOS and Android devices and the first 1,000 registrants will receive a free Healthier 901 t-shirt! To begin using this free tool, follow the steps below.

Registrants will also be eligible to win prizes from sponsors and in-kind donors through hourly drawings, including a grand prize valued at $1,000 at Healthier 901 Fest, Saturday September 2 at Shelby Farms Park from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. This free event features fun for the entire family including:
