Colorado men, time to stand up and be recognized. According to Health & Fitness Cheat Sheet, The Centennial State claims the healthiest men in all the land! Ranking ahead of states like California and Hawaii. WE'RE #1. WE'RE #1!

By using three different types of criteria, the study has chosen our state #1. The Health & Fitness people call these criteria 'metrics' and they consist of:

  • 1) Obesity Rates
  • 2) The Well-Being Index
  • 3) Health Club Participation Rates

Colorado came in with a 49 on the Obesity Scale, 6 on the Well-Being Scale and 21% Fitness Club membership. Way ahead of the runner-up. Other factors that were considered include access to National Parks, outdoor activities and other types of recreation, along with the weather. And we're pretty sure the delicious Palisade peaches and Olathe corn were also figured into the equation.

So, you see ladies, we are trying to look and feel our best JUST for you. Lord knows we are far from perfect, but it's a step in the right direction.

OK, so with this taken care of, what else can us Colorado men do to impress our 'Silver State' women?
