Rolling Strong(TM) Introduces First Wellness App for Transportation Industry; RoadApp to Wellness Provides Drivers the Tools to Better Health
LAS VEGAS, NV, Apr 10, 2012 (MARKETWIRE via COMTEX) --
Rolling Strong(TM) is proud to introduce the first wellness app
within the transportation industry. Rolling Strong's "RoadApp" to
Wellness is a free downloadable app to any iPhone, iPad or computer
via http://rollingstrong.com/app to help professional drivers get on
the road to better health. Rolling Strong includes diabetes
information and management tools from Bayer HealthCare on the
RoadApp, including an offer to drivers for their choice of either
Bayer's CONTOUR(R) or Bayer's BREEZE(R)2 blood glucose meters.
"We want to offer drivers, who are working hard to manage their
personal health, and for those who are just beginning to think about
wellness, a tool to help them reach their health goals," said Bob
Perry, "The Trucker Trainer(TM)" and chairman of the American
Trucking Association's Safety Management Council's Health & Wellness
Working Group and President of Rolling Strong. "By delivering this
opportunity to all drivers, hopefully, it will encourage them to take
a peak under their own personal hood in taking better care of
themselves on the road and at home."
The Rolling Strong RoadApp is designed specifically for the
professional driver with helpful information to navigate their
personal wellness, as well as transportation companies looking to
connect with the mobile workforce. The RoadApp's free section
includes a health tip everyday, Rolling Strong events and the monthly
Rolling Strong Wellness e-newsletter. In addition, the RoadApp allows
drivers to search clinic locations and provides drivers the
opportunity when they go out to eat the ability to pull up that
restaurant's nutritional guide and see the healthiest to eat, which
may not always be the salad. It also shows proper exercises for
drivers using their truck, videos that discuss different ailments a
driver may be suffering from and a link to the Center for Disease
Control for the latest in health information.
The Rolling Strong(TM) Wellness RoadApp's member section is the heart
and soul of the RoadApp that connects the driver and transportation
industry to a database that keeps track of their health each time
they enter their biometric readings (blood pressure, weight, BMI,
sugar) from Rolling Strong's health clinic partners and wellness
stations out on the road.
"It's an exciting time for Rolling Strong and shows the steady
progression in driver health and wellness. This app is another
advancement in bringing driver wellness into the main stream," said
Perry. "This is another giant step in staying true to our mission to
support driver wellness and to help them navigate down the highway to
better health getting them home safe each and every time to their
families."
