There are 9.1 million and 39.8 million American that are overweight and obese respectively. Doesn'tjust the thought of it make you want to get up and go for a walk? Yet, what is even more disturbing is the ever-increasing amount of obesity in children; currently there are 5.3 million children who are considered to be obese in the United States. Obviously, a vast promotion of activity in the country is considered necessary. Therefore, the purpose of this research is to assess whether or not it would be economical to establish a PTS Martial Art School in the Las Cruces area, so as to contribute to the national effort of reducing obesity among Americans through physical activity that provides not only exercise but also the discipline to lead a healthier lifestyle. Data was collected through a questionnaire distributed to !50 citizens of Las Cruces, with the majority on the New Mexico State University campus. The surveys were analyzed through statistical software where frequencies, cross tabulations, and summarizations were generated. Overall, it can be said that the sample includes exercising as a part of their lives, as they participate in a wide variety of activities, Martial Arts as one of them. Also concluded, the respondents engage in similar lifestyles that include a high intake of heavily sugared drinks such as soda and Kool-Aid, frequently eat at fast food facilities, and spend an excessive amount time watching Television or playing video games. Ironically, the majority of the respondents would like to exercise more and are dissatisfied with their current physical fitness. Still, the respondents like to have fun while they exercise, and are eager to endeavor in new activities, as the greater part of the sample share an interest in trying Marital Arts. Therefore, based on the results, it is the recommendation ofthe my research, that - -TS institutes a Martial Art School in Las Cruces, as high levels of interest in training and exercising are revealed. However, it is necessary and advised that further research be conducted. 4 Introduction Today, obesity is a multifaceted nutrition problem faced in the United States. The prevalence of overweight and obesity has increased dramatically in the recent decades, and obesity is now a major public health problem. There are approximately 97. l million adult Americans who are overweight and 39.8 million adults who are obese, accounting for 54.9% and 22.3% of the US population respectively. (7) Since 1991 the prevalence of obesity has increased by 61 %. ( 7) What is particularly alarming is the growing the number of children who are overweight, which is 5.3 million or 12.5%, of Americans between the ages of6 and 17. (4) Obesity negatively influences an individual's health by increasing mortality and raising the risk for multiple medical conditions such as Type II diabetes mellitus, hypertension, dyslipidemia, and coronary heart disease. In addition, the obese individuals often suffer social discrimination. With obesity and the lack of physical activity comes many costs. Overall, the direct costs account for approximately 9.4% ofthe national health care expenditures in the United States. (2) Inactivity, with its wide range of health consequences, represents a major avoidable contribution to the costs of illness in the United States. According to the American Obesity Association (AOA), healthcare costs for obese adults will reach $238 billion dollars this year with direct costs of over $102 billion. (I) With more and more children becoming obese at earlier ages, the tab for obesity-related illnesses could potentially explode into an extreme burden on the healthcare system. What is obesity? Obesity occurs when a person's calorie intake exceeds the amount of energy he or she bums. Evidence suggests that obesity occurs from several factors: genetic, environmental, and psychological. Genetic Factors. Obesity tends to run in families, suggesting that it may have a genetic cause. However, family member not only share genes but also diet and lifestyle habits that may be the contributing factors to obesity. 5 h'nvironmental Factors. Environment includes lifestyle behaviors such as what a person eats and how active he or she is. Americans tend to have high-fat diets, often-putting taste and convenience ahead of nutritional content when choosing meals. Most Americans also don't get enough exercise. People obviously can't change their genetic makeup, but they can change what they eat and how active they are. The most likely environmental factor contributing to the current obesity epidemic is a continued decline in daily ener1,>y expenditure that has not been matched by an equivalent reduction in energy intake. (8) Therefore, increasing physical activity may be the strategy of choice for public health efforts to prevent obesity. (8) Psychological Factors. Many people eat in response to negative emotions such as boredom, sadness, or anger. Which can cause excessive eating patterns and harmful hinging. In 1990 the United States, set an ambitious national health objective for the year 2000: to reduce the prevalence of obesity to less than 20%. The persistence and growth from 14.5% to 22.3%, rather than declining has now left a new proposed objective for the year 2010. (6) If weight gain prevention is to be successful, changes must be made at the individual, community, and policy levels. Primary prevention of obesity must include environmental strategies that address the many societal factors that influence energy imbalance, specifically diet and physical activity. The effects of physical activity on health are well established. Despite the myth that television will damage your eyes; it may be in actuality harming children's health, by making kids fat Nielsen Media Research indicated that children typically spend nearly four hours a day in front of the television set (I) That's almost two months of non-stop TV per year. Aside from sleeping, they're watching television or playing video games more than any other single activity in their lives. And the more they watch, the more obese they get ( 1) 6 In a study recently released in the Journal oj'the American Medical Association, researchers at Stanford University demonstrated a direct link between watching television and body weight. (I) Findings show that kids who reduce their television involvement exhibited statistically sifo'llificant decreased in measures of obesity, regardless of how the spent their re-allocated entertainment hours. Conversely, the more television a child watched, the more prevalent the obesity indicators. ( 1 ) Today kids spend more time on the virtual athletic field than they do on real turf. The Playstation 2, should be shelved more often and kids should be encouraged to get involved in sports and activities. Just as well, a recent study published in ll1e Lancet, reports that sugar-laden soft drinks can increase the likelihood of a child becoming obese by up to 60%. ( 3) The extra calories in sweet drinks such as Kool-Aid and soda can cause significant weight gain if not consumed in moderation. (3) Physical inactivity can have serious implications for both children and adults health. Only 22% of American adults meet recommended physical activity guidelines. Seven in 10 American adults are not regularly active during their leisure time and 4 in 10 who are not active at alL Lack of physical activity contributes to an estimated 300,000 preventable deaths annually in the United States, from diseases such as heart disease, strokes and diabetes shown in figure 1. (4,9) Yet, at any given time 33-40% of women and 20-24% of men are trying to lose weight. In fact, Americans spend $33 billion annually on weigh-loss products and services.

(8) This will help elevate metabolism levels, that can last minutes after a light exercise to as long as several hours after a heavy exercise. Calories lost during the post- exercise period are not high, but overtime can account significantly for maintaining a healthy weight Exercise also improves psychological well-being and replaces the sedentary habits that usually lead to snaking. Exercise may even act as a mild appetite suppressant As people lose weight, the body becomes more efficient at using enert,>y, and the rate of loss may decrease. Increased physical activity will help to continue losing weight and to avoid gaining it back. The purpose of this study is to assess the need of a Martial Art School in the Las Cruces area, which can contribute to the national effort of reducing obesity among Americans by 8 500 promoting a physical activity that provides discipline, exercise, self-defense, and an overall healthier lifestyle.

Completion of the survey averaged around ten minutes. , Survey Generatwn. All surveying was done in April 2002 . ...- Questionnaire. The questionnaire consisted of 32 questions identifying the samples habits, hobbies, interests, and demographics. 9 r Analysis. The surveys were statically analyzed through SPSS (Statistical Analysis Computer Pro!,>ram), where frequencies, cross tabulations, and summarizations were generated and will be reflected on in the results of the report. 10 Research Results The majority of the respondents tend to exercise quite regularly and frequently during the week. Those respondents who don't exercise accumulate to 14% of the sample, or 21 people out of 150. As you can see in figure 2 the times per week they exercise is spread out rather unifonnly, with the highest percentage at 19.3, exercising 4-5 times a week. Therefore, there is a possibility that if the sample posses an i E ~ h e y could easily include Martial Arts in their workout program. The 14% with no workout habits verify that not everyone is including exercise in their lives, as all should strive to do for a healthier and longer life. What can be drawn from the responses is that Martial Arts can be marketed to those who already exercise on a regular bases and those who don't exercise and should. Fi ure2 Times a week you exercise Times a week you exercise On average, the respondents exercise 30-45 minutes per workout. As the majority, or 24%, of the sample spend 30 to 45 minutes during a workout, 22% having a 60-minute or more workout, and 18% exercising 15 to 30 minutes per workout, it can be projected that 1 1 an one hour workout, the length of a typical Martial Art class, is likely to fit into their schedules. Furthennore, as figure 3 shows the majority of the respondents, 66.9%, prefer to exercise with other people. This can be a positive si!,'Il for Martial Art classes as they are composed of a group. Fi ure3 Prefer to exercise alone or with other people Wrth other people 66.9% Alone 33.1% Some of the common activities of the respondents who do exercise include running jogging, walking, weight lifting, push-ups, and sit-ups as a part of their workout. The respondents were asked to identify the activities and hobbies that they participated in; this provides a general idea of the variety of activities that our sample participates in. Overall, the most common activity is swimming with participation at 28%, following is basketball at 27.3%, hiking at 26. 7%, and bowling at 23%. Among the thirty activities to select from 11.3% of our sample participate in some form of Martial Arts. 12 The greater part of the sample, 80.7% is satisfied or very satisfied with their physical results in their given activities. The importance of fun in exercising is demonstrated in figure 4, as 48.6% think it is important, 37% very important, and 14.4% somewhat important. This proves that people want to have fun while they exercise; therefore a fun and positive atmosphere in Martial Arts would be more effective to those sampled. Fi ure4 How important is having fun in exercise 60 50 40 30 20 10 D.._ __ _ Somewhat important Important Very important How important is having fun in exercise The respondents were asked to identify the activities that they have not participated in but would like to. Martial Arts was one of the choices, and it ranked second at 24.7% after surfing at 34%. Therefore out of thirty activities Martial Arts is one of the preferred activities of our sample to try. 13 To formulate an idea of how much people believe they have time to exercise, we asked the respondents how many hours a week they think they could spend. According to figure 5, at 19.3% we have both four to five hours and five to six hours a week Only 2. 7% of the sample virtually said they don't have time to exercise by selecting less than one hour per week. This shows that the time factor for training Marital Arts is definitely in our favor as classes run one hour and students can determine how may days a week they want to train. However, to get adequate training students should train at least two or three days a week, total.ing two to three hours per week And with only 6. 7% of the sample willing to exercise no more than two hours a week, the majority of the sample will have time to train. Fi ure5 Hours per week you could spend exercising 20 10 c OJ ~ (]) ()_ 0 <1 1-2 2-3 3-4 4-5 5-6 6-7 >7 Hours per week you could spend exercising 14 What people do in their spare time is relevant to the type oflifestyles they lead. An overwhelming 40% said they would watch TV or play video games, 16.7% said they would exercise, and 14.7% said they would surf the Internet, as demonstrated in figure 6. Moreover, figure 7 represents the average hours the respondents watch TV in a given week, and a tremendous 46.7% spend twelve or more hours a week watching TV a week. Which is ironic as 78 of the respondents claim that they want to exercise more, shown in figure 8.

When asked how many servings (12 ounce equivalents) of pop or soda do the respondents drink per day, 27.3% drink three or more, 43.4% drink one to three, and 21.3% have zero to one a day, thus 92% of the sample includes pop in their daily diets. (Figure 9) Other everyday beverages include Kool-Aid, Juice (sugar and non-sugar added), coffee, milk, beer, and of course water. When asked about regularity of eating fast food, 35.6% respondents eat fast food three or more times a week, 25.5% eat fast food two to three times a week, 17.4% eat fast food one to two times a week, and 16.8% eat fast food zero to one time a week. The remaining 4. 7% claim not to eat fast food. (Figure 10) Of the fast food facilities, Subway is the most frequently visited, followed closely by McDonalds, Taco Bell, and Sonic respectively. 17 Fi ure9 On avg, how many servings of pop per day 4-5 5-6 6-7 >7 On avg, how many servings of pop per day IS Fi ure 10 On avg, eat fast food per week 4-5 5-6 6-7 >7 On avg, eat fast food per week Sixty-five of the respondents participated in competitive sports at the elementary school level. Increasing, 87 respondents participated in junior high and 99 in high school. Then, a 22% drop occurred as only 66 respondents participated in some form of competitive sports. With only thirty-four respondents having trained Martial Arts at some point, there is a large opportunity to target 77.3% who have never trained Martial Arts, as well as the 22.7% who either do train now or once have trained. (Figure I I) Of the 34 respondents who have trained, only nine are currently training Martial Arts. Karate, followed by Tae Kwon Do and then Cardio Kickboxing, were the most common forms practiced by these 34 respondents. While the more prevalent basis for their training was intended for exercise and self-defense. Thirty-two of the thirty-four respondents were either satisfied or very satisfied with their physical results while training. (Figure 12) In addition, thirty respondents had fun to very fun while training, whereas only four respondents had somewhat fun.

, Gender. Of the sample, 51.3 % are male and 48.7% are female. , Age. The average age was 22 years. The majority of the sample ranged from 19 to 24 years old. However, the respondents were as young as 16 and old as 65 years. r Children Status. Twenty of the respondents, or 13.3%, have children, while the remaining 130 respondents do not r Martial Status. Of the sample, 83.3% are single, 11.3% are married, 4% are divorced, and 2% widowed. r Occupation. Of the respondents 121 are students, while the other remaining 29 respondents are divided among various occupations such as Professional, Technical/Craftsperson, Sales/Buyer, Military, and others. Conclusions In response to the objectives provided earlier in the report, a tew conclusions can be drawn. Of the sample it can be said that exercising is a part of daily lives. There is a wide range of activities that the sample participates in trom basketball to dancing with Martial Arts lying somewhere in between. However, it is also concluded that a high percentage of the sample would like to exercise more and are not satisfied with their current physical fitness, which can be perceived as a window of opportunity for your company. Of the sample there is a strong interest in training some form of Martial Arts shown. People like to have fun while exercising and want to try new activities to increase their amount of exercise. The sample also demonstrates a strong attraction to eating fast food and drinking high levels of sugar products such as pop and Kooi-Aide. Therefore among the sample, the increasing poor habits that Americans across the country share are confirmed. 23 Recommendations The intention of this report is to provide a foundation that will enhance his ability to make appropriate judgment as to whether ornotaMartial Arts School would be beneficial to the Las Cruces area. As the overpowering statistics of obesity in the United States are on a rise, a vast push for activity and exercise is essential. Americans must embark on healthier lifestyles, and such an opportunity to do so is obtainable through Martial Arts. Martial Arts equips its disciples with the discipline to make healthier decisions and to undertake exercise as a standard for life. Therefore, contributing to the countrywide strive to decrease obesity and inactivity that strains our nation. As a result to the findings and as a researcher, I recommend that PTS inaugurates a Martial Art School in the Las Cruces area. As high levels of interest in training and exercising is revealed in our results. However, it is highly advise that further research be conducted. 1 believe it is necessary to research beyond the college population and speculate into the entire Las Cruces demographics including children, teens, and adults as well as various income levels. As any business, you want to be sure to draw in a large customer base and moreover generate a profit. 24 Limitations and Problems In research there is bound to be limitations as well as problems encountered, even more so with the inexperienced. Therefore, listed below are the tribulations stumbled upon in this research as well as their solutions, at which point will be taken forth by the researcher for future reference. 1. The demographics of the respondents reveal that the survey was distributed to mainly college students, as they total 80.7 percent of the replies. College students are a !,>roup of their own who share a similar age brackets as well as different lifestyles, such as eating patterns. A Martial Art school would want to target college students, especially if in a college town, but are going to find that the majority of their market segment consists of children and teens (neither of which were surveyed). , ln response, further research with a less bias sample would be relevant; it should be targeted to a variety of demographics including children and teens and their parents as well as college students. 2. As I distributed the surveys, I did so in my spare time, which a great deal of is spent at the Activity Center on campus. This can definitely cause an error in the research as the respondents sampled may exercise more than the average population. , In future projects, the researcher will try to get a more evenly dispersed sample base for the distribution of the surveys. Also a recommended reaction would to conduct further research. 3. Concerning the Questionnaire in itself, some of the respondents didn't follow the skip pattern correctly. As I found that 34 of the respondents said that they have trained Martial Arts in answer to question 16, following the skip patterns they were not to answer the upcoming question 23, Would you be interested in training 25 themselves the benefit of the doubt and making them feel better are apt to extend the true amount of time and frequency they spend exercising. ,.- The only way to eliminate the misguided respondents is to conduct and interview where the researcher could ask the questions from the questionnaire. However, unless given a lot of time and money, this would be very costly and impractical. ,.- To eliminate untruthful responses is impossible on Questionnaires, therefore, the as a data collection alternative the researcher could observe habits of the sample, which again costs time and money. As established above, the majority of the problems and limitations occurred due to the lack of experience by the researcher. Which together with further practice and knowledge, such occurrences will ultimately lessen. 26 APPENDIX A Marketing Research Project Proposal Today, people say they value an active lifestyle, but as a nation we are overweight and obese. Therefore, I would like to research the problem of high numbers of obesity in the United States. I believe that with a prominent activity such as training Martial Arts, that people can truly achieve the healthier lifestyle they believe they already posses. How often do people exercise? What are people's hobbies? What do they consider exercise? These are some questions tbat will be relevant to my research. I also want to discover the habits of our youth. Are Americans bad habits created as young children that then linger into their future? Is there too much emphasis on the television, video games, and computers instead of more active hobbies? With consistent training in Marital Arts, I believe people can enjoy a much healthier life, and therefore lower obesity in the United States. I will sample the Las Cruces area to find out what type of lifestyles people are truly living, which will then in tum verify the need for the training of Marital Arts in our daily lives. 27 APPENDIXB Research Report Questionnaire I am conducting a survey for my Marketing Research class; please take the time to answer all of the following questions by either circling the correct answer or checking the responses that apply.

What can be concluded from this observation is that the majority of the sample surveyed exercise pretty regularly and frequently, therefore there is a possibility that if they posses an interest, they could include Martial Arts in their workout program. The 14% with no workout habits verifies that not everyone is including exercise in their lives, as all should strive to do for a healthier and longer life. 34 Time Per Workout Time per workout Cumulative Frequencv Percent Valid Percent Percent Valid 0 minutes 16 12.0 12.0 12.0 10-15 minutes 15 10.0 10.0 22.0 15-30 minutes 27 16.0 18.0 40.0 30-45 minutes 36 24.0 24.0 64.0 > 60 minutes 33 22.0 22.0 86.0 6 20 13.3 13.3 99.3 7 1 .7 .7 100.0 Total 150 100.0 1000 According to this chart, the majority, 24%, of the sample spend 30 to 45 minutes during a workout, with 22% having a 60-minute or more workout and 18% exercising 15 to 30 minutes per workout.
