The obesity crisis in the United States continues to escalate, posing significant public health challenges. As of 2021, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) reported that 41.9% of American adults are classified as obese, a substantial increase from previous decades. Efforts to combat obesity must address dietary habits, physical activity, and broader societal factors to effectively reverse this concerning trend.

Michael Torchia, a fixture in the Los Angeles fitness scene, is no stranger to the battle against obesity. With the launch of AI MIKE, his innovative AI-driven health and fitness coach, Torchia aims to tackle the crisis head-on. This new digital companion offers round-the-clock personalized guidance free of charge in 30 languages.

The creation of AI MIKE was driven by the expertise of Michael Torchia and Ryaan Sayegh, Co-Founder and CTO of Hollo AI. The virtual human software powering AI MIKE mirrors Torchia's extensive knowledge of health, fitness, and nutrition, delivering guidance with a supportive, enthusiastic, and authoritative voice. This intelligent coach is designed to motivate and enhance users' lifestyle choices, embodying Torchia's mission to combat the global epidemic of obesity and poor health.

Since its launch, AI MIKE has demonstrated remarkable use cases that go beyond traditional fitness apps. One such case involves Alan Bell, a notable American environmental health attorney, who reports the incredibly positive impact the AI MIKE app has had on his 11-year-old autistic grandson, Trevor.

Bell describes how his grandson Trevor takes delight in asking many questions of the AI MIKE. "He's using the kid-friendly AI MIKE app to soak in and absorb this app's health knowledge and then repeats it back to his grandmother, Kim," notes Bell.

The AI MIKE has become such a large presence in Trevor's life that Bell even mentions how his grandson utilizes his Alexa app to speak directly with Torchia's AI app. Apparently, this AI interaction helps an autistic-spectrum child like Trevor to relate better to the outside world.

Such news is gratifying to Torchia, who notes that this sort of case is why he has taken the steps to launch a free app that enhances the physical and mental health of kids. But accolades for his fitness exploits are not new to Torchia who is also known as America's Fitness Coach and Trainer to the Stars. Indeed, Torchia has a storied career that started with his training famous celebrities in Hollywood such as Matt Damon and Oprah Winfrey and then continued into his holistic approach to wellness. Eventually Torchia sought to expand his narrow focus on fitness and found his calling in health education and also in combating health misinformation. Such efforts have landed Torchia and local L.A. news shows and on nationwide network programs.

Nowadays, Torchia continues promoting his message of better mental and physical health through his podcast, "Live Well and Thrive," offers credible, actionable insights, promoting balanced well-being and creating a supportive community for listeners.

With AI MIKE, Torchia aims to extend his impact, providing reliable, personalized health advice to a broader audience and helping individuals and families lead healthier, happier lives. The app's success with Trevor highlights its potential to reach even those with unique needs, offering them a way to engage with health and wellness on their terms.

For Torchia, his new AI MIKE tool isn't just another app. He sees it as part of a revolution in how people can access health advice. By offering support in 30 languages, AI MIKE breaks down barriers, ensuring that credible, personalized health information is available to a global audience. Users can now have a virtual health coach that mirrors Torchia's expertise and enthusiasm, motivating them to make better lifestyle choices and achieve their fitness goals.

In addition to his digital ventures, Torchia has made a significant impact through his Operation Fitness health fairs, which have drawn hundreds of thousands of attendees over the past two decades. These events underscore his commitment to fostering community and providing resources for healthy living, reinforcing the principles that AI MIKE now brings to a broader audience.

As evidenced by the positive impact on individuals like Trevor, AI MIKE is more than just a tool for fitness enthusiasts-it's a gateway to a healthier lifestyle for everyone, regardless of their challenges. With AI MIKE, the beat of Torchia's healthy living message goes on, revolutionizing the way we approach wellness in the 21st century.

Indeed, Torchia's journey from bodybuilder to wellness advocate finds him breaking through to new audiences with his AI MIKE app which he continues to promote at his health fairs. For Torchia, whether he's working with Artificial Intelligence or meeting people face-to-face, his goal is to continue to educate individuals and families about better health while offering practical solutions and support for the broad public.
