Leeds Rhinos Foundation is delighted to announce the launch of virtual Try Club sessions to help men get back into shape and improve their fitness from the safety of their homes.
The free 10-week course will take place every Wednesday evening from 14th October via Zoom, providing a safe and convenient way to access the popular men’s weight management programme during the current period.
With a focus on realistic goal setting, the week by week approach to weight management will help participants to achieve maintainable lifestyle changes without the need for any gimmicks, diets or painful gym sessions.
Each online session includes an interactive presentation focusing on a specific aspect of nutrition or behaviour change, such as reducing sugar intake, exploring food groups and the importance of portion sizes. This will be followed by a physical activity session, giving participants the chance to get moving and see improvements in their fitness levels.
According to new research released by Sport England, over 65% of people believe that regular exercise is having a positive effect on their mental health during the pandemic, making a healthy and active lifestyle more important than ever before.
Health Improvement Officer Amy Livingstone said: “We are really excited to be able to offer Try Club virtually for the first time. We hope that it can bring a different element to the course, with even more emphasis on building those healthy habits into your everyday life.
“The sessions will be fun, interactive, and still maintain that great social aspect that has been enjoyed by many at Try Club in the past.
“There is no need to worry about space or equipment as all the activities will be accessible and adapted to suit your needs, so come join us online and start making your healthy changes!”
Leeds Rhinos Foundation has delivered Try Club sessions in the community since 2016 and the programme has helped more than 200 men to not only transform their health, but also improve their confidence and ability to stay motivated.
The virtual Try Club sessions are open to all men who are aged over 18 and have a Body Mass Index (BMI) of 25 or above.
