What can I really change in 12 weeks?
We will show you how 12 weeks with ACCELERATION can kick-start a lifelong health journey.
ACCELERATION will help you adopt healthy habits and behaviours
Between 2013 and 2016, we launched the ACCELERATION pilot program with 583 participants in Vancouver, Toronto, Montreal, and Halifax.
At the end of their 12-week programs…
43% were exercising at least 150 minutes per week.
68% were consuming at least five servings of fruits and vegetables on a daily basis.
26% of smokers had stopped smoking.
The ACCELERATION program can help you reduce health risks
Reducing your risk of chronic disease is about learning to take control of your health habits. Here is an overview of what the most recent group of ACCELERATION graduates gained from their 12-week journey with us!

In the same group of graduates, those who met their target of five servings of fruits and vegetables per day lowered their risk of stroke by 7.5%.

I’ve tried many fitness programs over the years and this is the first one I’ve been able to stick with. It’s simple. And it works.

I’ve never been able to fit exercise into my day. But I have learned that exercising in 20-25-minute chunks makes a huge difference.
