Herd ‘25 introduced industry to Fat Framers.
If you missed it: What is Fat Farmers and how do they work?
The aim of the Fat Farmers program is to get farmers moving to promote healthier lifestyles and improve general health and well-being. To date they currently have 25+ groups which are mostly in SA, with 3 in VIC & 1 in NSW & QLD.
The format of the program that usually [but not essential] works best is when a group exercise session is held in a gym, footy club or even on an oval. Plus combined with an exercise program that ideally is conducted by a personal trainer or someone suitably qualified to conduct exercise programs. They also have walking groups, and other less structured groups under Fat Farmers so the above is not essential to get a group started.
