It’s a family effort
Dr. Dennis Buckley has produced a short video advising parents of overweight youth football players on helping their children lose weight the safe way. Dr. Buckley performs many preseason physicals on youth tackle football players in Orange County, California and has noticed that many are over the weight category for the division in which they want to play. Dr. Buckley points out that quick weight loss is unhealthy and that a healthy diet must be approached on a family-wide basis to be successful in most cases.
