The purpose of this website is to give every African-American, especially NBCI members and congregants, the latest scientific information concerning physical exercise and nutrition in the Black community. The African-American community has reached a tipping point in the areas of physical exercise and nutrition. Our issues with accurate health information, excessive weight, and bad nutritional behavior have created a dynamic that will cause over 50% of the Black community to be medically and/or physically disabled within the next 10-15 years unless we change. This is why NBCI has taken on this extraordinary project to get African-Americans moving while providing scientific and helpful information about physical exercise and nutrition.
Each of the sections that we have laid out in this website is specific to gender and age within the population of the African-American community. Each section contains articles, videos, expert opinions and demonstrations, helpful and life-saving information, as well as motivation so that we can start treating our bodies like the holy temples that God has created. The Scripture says, ‘I came that they may have life and have it abundantly’ and this is the aim of the National Black Church Initiative’s Physical Exercise and Nutrition Initiative. We want African-Americans to re-discover abundant living through proper and efficient exercise techniques and sound nutritional practices.
