Project details
Man v Fat – Leyton Orient Trust
The Man V Fat Football league is a male specific programme which was developed in early 2016. By taking the love of football, men are able to lose weight alongside playing the game. Leyton Orient Trust have partnered with Thrive Tribe to deliver this innovative new programme!
How does it work?
Men aged 18+ with a BMI of over 27.5+ are placed into teams and devise their own team name. A 6 a side football match is then played with the final score being placed into a league, however that is only half the score! Men are the weighed to monitor weekly weight loss with extra goals been scored depending on the number of your team losing weight. Men can also score a ‘hat-trick’ by losing weight three weeks in a row!
The results are then placed into a league setting with teams vying for the top sport and the coveted Man V Fat Football cup.
