UK launches fat-men football league to fight obesity
If you're a man who is trying to lose weight, you may want to take part in this special football league in the UK.
The “Man Versus Fat” football league is designed to get obese men off the couch and onto a pitch. The contest is open to all men with a Body Mass Index of more than 30.
The league lasts for 14 weeks and is free of charge. This group of 80 guys are on target to lose over two thousand pounds of weight over the course. Points are awarded for both games won and pounds lost after each game.
The league has been incredibly popular and many countries around the world want to start their own leagues as well.
85 percent of the footballers who've taken part in the initiative are losing weight, with a 30-percent higher success rate compared to average weight-loss programs.
