Australia has now overtaken the United States as having the highest childhood obesity rates in the world. One in five children or adolescents in Australia are now classified as overweight or obese - and this figure is growing rapidly. If current trends continue, it is predicted that by 2020, 50% of young Australians will be overweight or obese.

 At Succeed, we firmly believe that the activity and nutritional habits created during the impressionable years of childhood will mould the habits of these children for the rest of their lives.

Although reversible, bad habits in these two critical areas are extremely hard to change in the adult years.

 The habits formed during childhood stay with an individual for a long time, in most cases for life.

Obesity is set to become the biggest disease of the century. Health experts say that curbing the alarming rate of childhood obesity could prevent millions of cancer cases and other significant illnesses.

 The Succeed Mini Commandos program is a crucial step in the right direction. Getting our children active from an early age is vital - this will give them every chance at developing positive exercise habits as they grow and develop through their teenage and adult years. The program is designed for maximum enjoyment, while still challenging participants to push themselves

 Mini commandos is an exercise program for children at Early Childhood Centres (3 - 6 years).

Loosely based on army style Bootcamp training, Mini Commandos has been developed by Australia’s leading personal training company, Succeed,  in an effort to get children up off the couch and moving again!

 Incorporating such exercises as pushups, squats, and running, along with ball games, tug of war, obstacle courses and boxing just to name a few.

 Mini commandos is run for 40 minute fitness sessions over a set period. Specifically designed to help children realise exercise can be fun and rewarding.
