But How Can We Do It?
We need to recognize that Childhood obesity is a PREVENTABLE PROBLEM, but only if victims learn to take responsibility for what goes in their mouths, and how many calories they burn each day. Kids must learn to avoid junk food, TV, and video games [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], just like they must learn to avoid tobacco [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], alcohol, and drugs.
Personal Responsibility Taking Behavior
The Robert Woods Johnson Foundation recently announced that it’s contributing $500 Million Dollars over the next five years to combat the growing crisis in childhood obesity. The RWJF expects to work with the Feds, state governments, and schools who have already spent billions trying to turn the tide on this problem. Celebrities are speaking up, business leaders getting involved, and I just read where a tri-athlete has dedicated his next event to “raising public awareness of childhood.”
But at this point I need to raise my hand and ask, how much more money are we going to throw at this problem without making the slightest dentin it? How much more aware can we get? If it weren’t for the war in Iraq, childhood obesity would be the number one issue in the news today.
Here’s the Key

Kids who can do pull ups and who succeed in front of their peers, don't hate pull ups. In fact they enjoy being able to tackle a difficult task like pull ups, and succeed in front of their peers. It becomes a badge of honor, a status symbol. I personally witnessed an entire school full of kids learning to love pull ups back in the early nineties.
Sooner or later someone needs to point out an obvious flaw in the midst of all this mega spending, out speaking, and awareness raising. Someone besides McDonald’s needs to recognize that we can spend money until we’re blue in the face, we can speak out, and market the bejeebers out of the conventional “eat right and exercise more” anti obesity message. But until we address the lack of personal responsibility taking behavior that lies at the bottom of this problem, we’ll continue spinning our wheels, wasting time and money to beat the childhood obesity problem. In order to succeed, something must change.
How Can We Do That?
The basic underlying premise of OPYOW is that kids who can do pull ups can't carry much excess body weight, and kids who carry much excess body weight can't do pull ups. So the idea is to develop our kid’s ability to do pull ups, and then encourage them to maintain that ability right on through adulthood. To accomplish this simple feat is to naturally immunize kids against obesity for a lifetime.

If you accept this basic premise, the next question becomes, how do you teach kids to do pull ups, when pull ups are the most universally hated exercise on the planet? You have to start by recognizing that it's not really pull ups that kids hate. It’s FAILING IN FRONT OF THEIR PEERS that kids hate.
So then, how do you make pull ups accessible to all kids, and transform hated failure into joyful succ

The Basic Premise
There are probably other good answers to this troublesome question, but I'm only familiar with one. It's called Operation Pull Your Own Weight. It's incredibly simple, incredibly inexpensive, and I watched it work with elementary school kids for four consecutive years (1990-1994) at Jefferson Elementary School in Davenport, IA. With that intro, here are the basic principals for Operation Pull Your Own Weight along with the ways in which it specifically addresses childhood obesity.
It’s Preventable, But Only If…
So how, you may ask [link widoczny dla zalogowanych], can we systematically teach our kids to eat right, get sufficient rest, plenty of exercise, and to avoid tobacco alcohol and drugs? How do we teach our kids to TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THEIR OWN LIVES when everything around them encourages kids to DEPEND ON governments and business for the goods and services from which THEY (governments and businesses) PROFIT?
