Triple H Calls for National Fitness Push via Revived Council

Paul Levesque, known professionally as Triple H and serving as WWE's Chief Content Officer, has called for a national push toward better physical fitness in an opinion piece published on Fox News. Writing as vice chair of the President's Council on Sports, Fitness, and Nutrition, Levesque outlined plans under President Donald Trump to revive the council and reinstate the long-dormant Presidential Fitness Test, aiming to combat rising health issues across the United States.

The council, established 70 years ago by President Dwight D. Eisenhower, was reestablished last year following Levesque's visit to the White House. Trump signed an executive order in September 2025 to restore it, with Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. tasked with administering the fitness test and developing criteria for a Presidential Fitness Award. Levesque emphasized that the initiative will partner with schools and communities nationwide to promote healthier, more active lifestyles for Americans of all ages, particularly targeting the next generation.
