Germantown Residents Best “Fat Camp” Option

The health and well-being of our campers is paramount! Camp Pocono Trails has an effective food and nutrition program because it balances nutrition with plenty of physical activity. This physical movement takes place all day long with a variety of activities. No pills, drugs or food supplements are ever used or encouraged. We don’t believe in fad diets. We believe in a healthy lifestyle. Campers learn to make smarter choices by making better menu selections in restaurants, being prepared before they go out to eat, being conscious of portion sizes, and engaging in physical activities.  With this approach at Camp Pocono Trails we have witnessed campers that will lose an average of 3-5 pounds a week. The transformation is remarkable and most importantly it can be achievable and sustained when your teen returns home.

Teen Fat Camp Effectiveness

If you send your teenager to a program that calls themselves a “teen fat camp,” how likely would it be that your child would accept the interventions they suggest? The more likely scenario is that your teen would close down and rebel against the program.  If this happens, your summer investment would go to waste.

At Camp Pocono Trails, we keep a positive atmosphere going 24/7. Our campers want to come back year after year because of the positivity of our program. We have over 350 pristine acres in a resort-like setting and create multiple unforgettable experiences. Teens learn sports and activities they have never tried before and get the experience of losing weight in a supportive, friendly setting. This is something that teen fat camps just cannot provide.

Kids Health Camp in the Modern Age

Today, a quality health camp for kids will also include time away from electronics and teaching young people the skills to manage their downtime. Ask anyone with a child today and they will tell you that electronics like cell phones, computers, and tablets are a constant distraction. As electronics become more a part of our daily routine, face to face time socializing or engaging in rigorous physical activity is a behavior we see less and less of.

It’s critical today that parents show their child how to live in a healthy way. Your child’s habits they start at home will continue on through college or whatever the next step is towards independence.

Spending too little time exercising, too much time overeating, or not enough time socializing due to video games or cell phones can create habits that extend well into adulthood. These habits can wreak havoc on your child’s long-term health.
