\n Annabel and Harry Twinberrow, age 26 and 29, have set up Moo Fit by adapting\u00a0farming equipment to keep people fit and bring the community together.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n The gym, based in Doddenham, near Knightwick, utilises haybales, ropes, cattle feeding troughs, tyres and more to create unique and active sessions.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n Miss Twinberrow said: “Myself and my brother Harry, we are quite into our fitness and CrossFit so we started doing our own workouts around the farmyard with whatever we could find.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n “We thought we should get some other people involved so we found a Hyrox coach called Karl Marshall and he started coaching sessions every Monday at 6pm.\n<\/p>\n
\n “I’d say we have around 20 people that will\u00a0come every Monday now.\n<\/p>\n
\n “The costs were minimal. All of the equipment, it’s just things that we have seen lying around in the farm and thought that could work.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n “The only costs were\u00a0making a couple of changes to our insurance and bringing a coach in that knows what he’s talking about.”\n<\/p>\n
\n Just like that, the distinctive fitness experience was born.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n A typical workout session includes a cattle feeding trough flipped upside down as a jumping block, weighted balls thrown over hay bales and a wealth of exercises using a tyre.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n “We’ve discovered that there’s like 100 different workouts you can do with a tyre,” she said.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n “To be honest, there are more differences than similarities to a typical gym.”\n<\/p>\n
\n The siblings have also competed, representing Moo Fit in Farmers Weekly’s Fittest Farmer competition – an event first created in 2018 as a way to spark a discussion on the physical and mental health of UK farmers and encourage them to stay fit.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n

\n “It is so nice to meet people and just be outside when the sun is shining,” she said.\n<\/p>\n
\n “Everyone gets to know each other. It is a group focused on workouts but we will all go for a drink after or go for a walk around the cattle together – some of the cattle have been watching in the shed next door.\n<\/p>\n
\n “We hope to bring in more sessions like Pilates or stretching, as well as more classes per week.\u00a0\n<\/p>\n
\n “We also want to broaden our reach and try to get some older people involved.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Annabel and Harry Twinberrow, age 26 and 29, have set up Moo Fit by adapting\u00a0farming equipment to keep…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":56746,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[46],"tags":[6647,102,56,54,55],"class_list":{"0":"post-56745","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-fitness","8":"tag-fitness","9":"tag-health","10":"tag-uk","11":"tag-united-kingdom","12":"tag-unitedkingdom"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56745","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=56745"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/56745\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/56746"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=56745"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=56745"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=56745"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
