Could You Survive ?
Could You Survive Brings In The Awards...
A Bronze 2009 Telly Award in the Health and Fitness Category.
"If you had to, could you?"
Dr. Peeke asks this question in Could You Survive-the exhilarating series that explores the role physical fitness plays in helping humans survive life-or- death scenarios. Dr. Peeke challenges ordinary people with varying body types to determine if they have the basic level of endurance, strength and agility to survive extraordinary circumstances-such as making it up 30 flights of stairs to the roof of a burning skyscraper or simulating an emergency rescue with a dummy the weight of an average adult.
Over the course of only four weeks, Dr. Peeke and her team perform amazing mental and physical transformations-pounds are shed, muscles grow and medical conditions are reversed. Could You Survive is about real life fitness-being mentally and physically strong enough to manage 21st century living challenges such as running to catch a plane, sprinting to snatch a child back from the curb, or even pulling yourself out of a car submerged in water.
