Best Weight Loss Camp for Michigan Families!

Located in Pennsylvania, many Michigan teens are getting fit and having fun at Camp Pocono Trails weight loss camp! There are more than 101+ activities for teens to discover at this summer camp. Many of the activities offered will give your teen an opportunity of a lifetime to try new things like a challenging ropes course, climbing wall, aerobics classes, Zumba, water polo, and much more.

Camp Pocono Trails is a non-competitive environment where having fun participating in a sport and doing your own personal best is more important than winning. So, even if your teen has not experienced an activity before this is the place to try something new. Maybe your teen has been inactive and is not in good physical condition. The supportive staff at Camp Pocono Trails wants to help your teen reach their physical fitness goals. The staff to camper ratio never exceeds 1:4. Instructors in aerobics classes and on the field know how to accommodate the level of intensity for all campers so that each camper can maximize their workout while avoiding risk of injury.

At summer camp, all the activities are optional and your teen will be able to choose from many different activities. One day your teen may choose to workout in the gym or play on a tennis court or basketball court. Another day he or she may want to go from fishing to relay swim races. Whatever combination of activities our campers select they will be staying active and discovering physical abilities that will lead to weight loss. Naturally, a boost in their self-confidence follows! Getting fit is fun and at Camp Pocono Trails our campers return home motivated to stay active!

If your camper wants to lose weight they will have the most positive experience at the summer camp in the Poconos Mountains. Campers receive positive reinforcement to continually encourage your teen no matter what their skill level is. The staff are experts at building self-esteem and establishing a “can do” attitude. Most importantly, our staff understands that maintaining the positive self-esteem of our campers is a critical aspect of supporting them to achieve their goals. At Camp Pocono Trails, staying active is non-threatening and stress free. We believe in having fun and supporting all campers in discovering that physical fitness can be a positive, rewarding experience.

When you look around your teen’s bedroom is there technology everywhere? From Alexa, to iPhones, laptops to kindles, apple watches to Airpods, Nintendo Switch, Xbox, PS4, VR, etc. In this technology era, today’s teens are more immersed in devices than any generation before. Though they are adept at using a wide range of devices, not all teens know how to balance technology and live a healthy lifestyle.

One main disruption technology causes in the bedroom is sleep deprivation. There are bad habits that form in this private space that leads to staying up late. For example, when your teen routinely falls asleep with the TV on or stays up late for midnight gaming sessions you may have some problems. When the cell phone buzzes late at night and your teen often finds the irrepressible urge to instantly respond, they may be sacrificing much-needed sleep.

Michigan parents are investing in their teen and sending them to Camp Pocono Trails this summer. When technology use is not able to be controlled or restrained by your teen you may experience disruptions in school performance, relationships, weight gain, sleep deprivation, mood swings, hygiene, responsibilities, disorganized environment, etc. At Camp Pocono Trails your teen will get support and learn how to manage technology use.

At Camp Pocono Trails your teen will establish healthy habits that will replace the bad habits caused by technology overuse. Learning to unplug all devices at least 30 minutes before bedtime rituals is something they will do. Establishing healthy bedtime rituals to help their body calm down like taking hot showers or baths, reading a book, or reflecting in their journal. Campers will learn to avoid stimulants after dinner such as caffeine and sugars. When your teen returns home they will know how to create a bedroom environment that focuses on sleep.

By removing technology from the bedroom that disrupts sleep and relocating it to other rooms inside the house, your teen will be making smarter choices. Likewise, by using an old-fashioned alarm clock instead of a cell phone step-by-step your teen will replace bad habits with healthy habits. Campers will return home rested, rejuvenated, physically fit and with a new perspective about how technology fits into a healthy lifestyle!
