Coast FM and Plus Fitness 24/7 are making over Mandurah with the 6 Week Kick Start Challenge.

12 contestants have been chosen to take part in a 6 week journey of weight loss and fitness under the watchful eye of super-trainer, Adrian Haywood and his team from Plus Fitness 24/7 in Halls Head. The program includes a nutrition plan, gym access and the support of the whole town. There is over $2,000 in prizes to be won for the contestant who loses the most body weight percentage.

Captain Coast, aka Wade from the Coast Crew, joined the 12 contestants this morning to see if he could hack the training program they have already been doing for 3 weeks. From doing the plank to squats and running, the kick start contestants certainly showed Captain Coast a thing or two as he was breathless after exercising for 5 minutes while they were running laps around him.
