Healthy Tonic for Mums and Kids

According to a warning from the UK's food watchdog "Child obesity due to poor nutrition and lack of exercise is a ticking time bomb for life expectancy levels. 10% of all six-year-old kids in the UK are clinically obese as are15% of all 15-year-olds."

These shocking statistics have spurred Personal Training Company, The Tonic to devise a new plan to combine quality family time with keeping fit and healthy. This scheme launched just in time for the school holidays, will also mean that many mums will be able to keep up with their own exercise regimes while their children are off school during the long summer break.

The Tonic Mums and Kids sessions will take place in outdoor areas around London. Kids will be able to run off excess energy with a range of supervised activities involving balls, hoops, hurdles, skipping ropes and cones, whilst mums can take part in a workout of their own with groups of other women. Qualified personal trainers will be on hand to look after the children whilst additional trainers will supervise the mums to ensure they also benefit from a thorough training session.

Tonic Director Jeff Archer commented, 'There have been a lot of articles featured in the news about childhood obesity. We wanted to come up with something that would encourage children to incorporate exercise into their lives from a young age to hopefully set the tone for when they are older. The scheme will also mean busy mums can use the time to have their own workout.'

The Tonic Mums and Kids sessions will last for one hour and cost £15 for one adult and one child, plus £5 for each additional child.
