The Apex Club Based Weight Manager is personalized according to the user's
eating and exercise preferences. The Apex program, using the guidelines of the
American Dietetic Association, creates an individual program for each user ac-
cording to their particular food likes and dislikes. As a result, Apex program
participants are more likely to achieve a sustainable weight loss change.

wearing it. It's an exciting technology that combines physiological and
activity monitoring information.” Dr. Scott J. Strath, Ph.D. Research
Fellow. Ann Arbor VA Hospital.
Researchers from a variety of fields have used the SenseWear Armband and
InnerView Research Software (IRS versions 1.0-4.0) in various investigations.
