What is a Fat Farm for Seniors & Adults?

A fat farm is typically a residential retreat where older adults and seniors struggling to get fit or lose weight come to achieve their fitness goals. At Weight Crafters, we provide a stress-free environment that supports your journey to better health and well-being.

How We Help

  • Improve Mobility
  • Increase Strength
  • Feel More Energy
  • Reduce Aches & Joint Pain
  • Add Years to Your Life, and Enjoy Them More

A modern take on a classic concept

In the past, "fat farm" was the most well-known name for weight loss retreats, without modern-day negative associations. Today, these programs are more commonly referred to as wellness retreats or weight loss camps.

This evolution goes deeper than just the name. Modern fitness and weight loss retreats like Weight Crafters employ powerful, contemporary techniques including:

  • Behavioral modification
  • Group support
  • Nutritional guidance
