This is tak- ing a serious toll, says Kevin Harris, proprietor of X-treme Fitness, which is celebrating a year of helping people get off the couch, in Acton, with an open house this Saturday from 8a.m. to 4p.m. at the fitness centre, 10 Main St. N. in Acton. The open house will host free health assessments by in-house experts to explore the best course of action for people when combining diet, exercise and nutrition to fit their lifestyle. Therell also be free personal training tri- als as well as facility and services tours highlight- ing physical displays and demos of dietary supple- ments that aid in achieving a healthier lifestyle.
