From Fat To Finish Line (2015)
This astonishing health documentary on Netflix presents the story of 12 overweight and obese men and women who decided to make a change in their lives and lose weight with a somewhat awkward method.

Stunningly enough, each one of these 12 men and women achieved the goal of running a total of 200 miles and, in the end, each of them weighed 100 pounds (45 kilos) less, on average.
This is one of the best health documentaries on Netflix that shows that jogging, backed up by an iron will and a clear goal set in mind, remains the best method of losing weight in a healthy manner.

Fitness Programs
While all of these five fitness programs are great, you might want to take into consideration combining them with other workouts. There are a lot of options available and if you feel that the risk of watching a movie instead of a fitness program is too high, we recommend you the old-fashioned DVDs. Some of these fitness programs also come with a nutrition plan, which would be a complete solution for changing your lifestyle.
