"My goal is to get people fit and teach them how to stay fit," Henson told BlackVoices.com. "Its a DVD program I have designed to get you to lose weight, get in shape and enjoy doing so! Most people diet and feel like they are dying when they do. I am going to show you how to live it!"
The former 'Soul Food' star, who has appeared in films like 'Stomp The Yard,' 'The Express' and 'The Salon,' said he hopes the people can incorporate the video into their daily lifestyle.
"I care about my fans and their health and now I am doing something about it," he explained. "One day at a time, one step at a time - not 90 days or 180 days, but every day; I am their celebrity fitness coach and I lead the work outs for them for an hour and 10 minutes. Either in the morning before work, on a lunch break or in the evening when the work, kids and dishes are done - 'Get Fit & Stay Fit' will teach people how to break the habits of starting and not finishing by doing a 'lil bit everyday. This is the quickest and most effective way of burning calories in a short period of time."
