Actually, in this forum, several users are trying to make it known widespread that Men's Fitness does not use substantial criteria for their ranking of America's "Fittest" Cities. Their list does not actually compile the fittest cities in correct order.
No offense, but this thread isn't providing any good info.

Seems to be ok I guess....except the C in the Overweight categorie. Wouldn't that imply half the population is overweight therefore unfit?
Milwaukee and Atlanta are some of the fittest? And Las Vega is the fattest?
I think you need to check your sources.
Car-culture. Which is why I have no idea why Atlanta is up there, especially with the popularity of grits and things like that down there... This list isn't accurate.
And every time I see one of these lists they're always different....
And Philly is a short drive from NYC. People even commute to NYC from Philly and the other way around. How is Philly one of the fittest and NYC one of the fattest? Makes no sense due to the fact that New Yorkers use public transportation and New York is among the top 10 greenest cities in America up there with cities like Portland and Seattle. My school is also one of the most physically fit school's in the nation.
