Why THE XR GAMES, a Physically Interactive video game league, now?
Video gaming is becoming America’s national pastime and is a major contributor to a sedentary lifestyle and the obesity epidemic. According to the U.S. Center for Disease Control, intake of unhealthy foods and a decrease in physical activity has lead to: 1 of 3 children who are either obese or overweight 2 of 3 adults who are either obese or overweight Additionally, 53 million Americans play video games three or more hours per day. We believe that the use of the XR STATION and participation in THE XR GAMES health community are the start of the solution to the childhood obesity epidemic.
