PORT ORCHARD, Wash., Nov. 19 /PRNewswire/ -- Stayhealthy, Inc. and EF Recovery announced today that they have launched a pilot program with the Washington Fire Chief's Fire Rescue Wellness Corporation to bring revolutionary health and fitness devices to Washington area firefighters.

"The health and safety of our firefighters is always a top concern," said Chief Wayne Senter, Fire Chief of South Kitsap Fire Rescue. "As our nation deals with an epidemic of overweight and obesity that affects more than 70% of our population, we are always looking for the best solutions to bring to our firefighters to improve their overall fitness levels. The pilot program we've launched today provides what I believe will be one of the most compelling solutions to help our firefighters achieve their best fitness levels."

"In advance of a nationwide rollout of the program, Stayhealthy and EF Recovery have partnered to test pilot this program in Washington State. When we were first introduced to the firefighters in Washington State, we were immediately impressed by their enthusiasm and commitment to the health and fitness of their organization. We chose to test pilot our program here so that we can get firsthand experiences that we can take to firefighters across the country," said John Collins, CEO of Stayhealthy.

"The pilot program will be initiated at seven fire stations directed by Chief Wayne Senter, within the Puget Sound region, in South Kitsap Fire and Rescue District. The Stayhealthy devices that will be used during the pilot include the Stayhealthy Body Composition Analyzer and the Stayhealthy Calorie Tracker.
