Women In Trucking Sponsors Rolling Strong Wellness Competition
Health and wellness platform provider and Women In Trucking to support competition aimed at improving driver lifestyle choices
Rolling Strong, the provider of health and wellness programs for owner-operators, transportation companies and their drivers and employees announced the Accelerate Your Health Wellness Competition, which is sponsored by Women In Trucking Association. Fitbit® Drivewyze Inc. and AllTrails, along with Rolling Strong, will be providing prizes for the event that kicks off July 15th and runs through September 1st.
“We are excited to see how these wellness challenges encourage participants to be more mindful of the five key components of fitness, nutrition, sleep, hydration and coach interactions that the Rolling Strong program offers,” said Stephen Kane, president of Rolling Strong. “By the end of a competition, new habits will form and people will win prizes. Everybody wins! It’s fun, interactive and very impactful. We are grateful that Women In Trucking is helping pioneer gamified wellness in the trucking industry. We are also very happy to see such great industry leaders as Fitbit, AllTrails and Drivewyze show their support with their generous sponsorship.”
The wellness competition is open to anyone and is based on points earned in the Rolling Strong app. Points are accumulated by participating in weekly Rolling Strong coaching and HIGI health assessments as well as logging hydration, sleep, nutrition and fitness activities – all on the Rolling Strong fitness app. The highest points earners during the competition win the awards. To participate, contestants need to have the Rolling Strong app, which is available through Google Play or the Apple App Store. Non Rolling Strong Members will pay $3.99 a month, which can be cancelled at any time.
“I hear from many drivers who are struggling with weight challenges,” said Ellen Voie, president and CEO of Women In Trucking. “This competition is a great way to help our members focus on a healthy lifestyle, especially while on the road.

The Rolling Strong health and wellness mobile app for IOS and Android devices offers exercise programs and nutrition and personal health guidance, including the ability to connect with a wellness coach. Drivers can also earn points and rewards for logging sleep, exercising, and meeting daily calorie goals. Rolling Strong Wellness Competitions were created as part of the wellness platform to encourage professional drivers, carriers and the industry to participate in wellness challenges and be more mindful of the five key components (fitness, nutrition, sleep, hydration, and coach interactions) the program offers. The sponsored wellness challenges bring people from across the trucking industry together in a friendly, but focused and competitive atmosphere to improve overall wellness and fitness.
