Samir Becic proclaims Texas Governor Greg Abbott among Fittest in US

0

Yesterday we released our list of the Top 10 Fittest Governors in America 2017 list. Texas Governor Greg Abbott retweeted our list, thanking us for the recognition. His place on the list was well deserved, as he maintains a healthy lifestyle despite being in a wheelchair!

Our list was also featured in the Houston Chronicle, San Antonio Express, San Francisco Gate and many others…..

We were the first media outlet to rank politicians based on physical fitness, starting with our world-renowned list of the Fittest Heads of State. From there, we expanded into Fittest Governors 2016, Fittest Congresspeople, and Fittest Politicians, all of which are the first of their kind.

The importance of this list of governors is their fundamental role in influencing their state’s prosperity and play a large part in determining the actions taken towards state health. That’s why we want to recognize the U.S. Governors who serve as advocates of health and fitness, both in their own lives and in policy. Samir Becic says of Governors “Governors are mini-Presidents, and very often, U.S. Governors have more political and financial power than many heads of states across the world. Please use these powers to motivate Americans to lead the world in health and fitness, like they do in so many other areas.”

HFR institute founder Samir Becic says of the men and women on our list: “Governors are mini-Presidents, and very often, U.S. Governors have more political and financial power than many heads of states across the world. Please use these powers to motivate Americans to lead the world in health and fitness, like they do in so many other areas.”

Congratulations again to Texas Governor Greg Abbott!
