Rugby Union legend Austin Healey is urging people in Bradford to get active at free Army-style boot camps this summer.
He has teamed up with outdoor exercise company British Military Fitness in a bid to get the nation to burn off two million calories at a series of classes in the open air.
The former England and Lions rugby player said: “There are more ways than ever before to keep fit and active yet as a nation we are becoming more obese and less active.
“Working with British Military Fitness I want us to inspire people to swap their slippers for a pair of trainers.
“For me, there’s no better way to keep fit and enjoy working out than in the great outdoors.”
The classes, called BMF Start, will take place at Peel Park at 10am on four Saturdays – May 11, June 1, June 29 and July 20.
Sessions are free but places are limited. For further details, and to book in advance, visit britmilfit. com/bmfstart.
