What is Walk and Weigh?

 

Walk and Weigh is a walking football weight-loss programme that puts people first, fitness second. It’s built around:

​

• Safe, calm sessions

• Walking football (yes, walking really does mean walking)

• Supportive coaching

• Encouragement from people who are on the same journey

 

The programme will evolve in the direction the group wants it to go and you’ll be supported by ECFC Charity Fundraiser coaches and, just as importantly, by the other players around you. Motivation tends to happen naturally when you’re surrounded by people who get it.

 

Who is it for?

 

Walk and Way is ideal if you:

 

• Want to lose weight but hate gyms

• Feel intimidated by traditional fitness sessions

• Haven’t played football for years (or ever)

• Want something sociable, supportive and genuinely enjoyable

• Prefer encouragement over pressure

 

If you can walk, you can play. Simple as that. And yes, there will be goals. Just not the shouting kind.
