Researching weight loss camps or fat farms for seniors isn't easy, but if you're over 50 and wondering how to lose weight and get fit again, then you're not alone! It can be difficult finding a program that isn't too intense or too lax, but rather, is unique to you and your personal goals. At Fit Farm at Rock Springs, we believe that fat farms for seniors need to change, which is why we're not a 'fat farm', we're a Fit Farm!
In the video below, we chat with a senior couple, Richard and Cheryl, after completing their first stay at Fit Farm. Both were fit in their younger years and wanted to reclaim their health through a boot camp for seniors. Cheryl had had knee surgery and wasn't sure if she would be able to participate, but both she and her husband were pleasantly surprised to see she was capable of more than they thought!
WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN FIT FARM & FAT FARMS FOR SENIORS?
For some, picturing a fat farm brings images to mind of intense workouts and being miserable. In the past, society has unfairly attached a negative perception to these programs that are designed to help people. It's no wonder that some may be intimidated by the thought of going all in for a weight loss camp, especially if you don't feel like you're at the top of your game as you once were before. However, not all fitness retreats, fat camps, fat farms, whatever you want to call them, are made equally. At Fit Farm, our program is tailor-made with our guests at the forefront.
Whether you're looking to lose weight for the long term, get a step or two back in your stride, stay in shape to keep up with the grandkids, or cross off a boot camp for seniors from your bucket list, this is your journey. The path you take and the goals you set for yourself are all for you to decide. But sometimes it’s difficult to know how to take that first step. That’s where Fit Farm comes in.
Fit Farm’s distraction-free, 200-acre private resort in the rolling hills of Nashville, TN, is an oasis of nurturing mind, body, and goals. Jumpstart your personal journey with our all-inclusive fitness and weight loss retreats that provide you with the tools, knowledge, and support to maximize your results. You don’t have to worry about what kind of food you should eat or what exercises you should do. We remove all the guesswork so you can focus on you.

TYPICAL DEMOGRAPHIC AT FIT FARM
Being surrounded by others who have similar goals is incredibly empowering. Know that you are not alone in your quest to be a healthier version of yourself. Many seniors seek out fat farms or weight loss retreats to kickstart or continue their health journey. In 2021, over 45% of first-time guests at Fit Farm were 50+ years of age. No matter your age, gender, or where you're from, Fit Farm is a welcoming environment for all.
MOVE AT YOUR PACE
We like to refer to our weight loss program as an all-inclusive retreat not only because our pricing includes everything from your fitness program, all snacks and meals, room accommodations, and activities; but also because the program is ideal for all fitness levels, all ages, all genders, and all starting points. Guests from all over the world and from different walks of life participate in our Fit Farm program. Some guests arrive with a goal to be able to walk a mile before they leave, while other seniors may be training for a marathon! No matter what your goals are, our experienced staff is here to meet you at your pace to help everyone reach their goals.
The program at Fit Farm Our program isn't 100% high-intensity workouts. Instead, we provide a progressive daily program that takes you through the peaks and valleys of physical exertion and elevated heart rate to help you build the endurance and strength you are looking for. Our structured fitness and weight loss program provides up to 7 hours daily of various classes. You're probably thinking that it's impossible for anyone that’s a senior to work out for 7 hours a day, and you're right. Safely engaging in 7 hours of high-intensity exercises every day is impossible, no matter whether young or old, and that's not what we do here at Fit Farm. These 7 hours are a combination of fitness and wellness education classes that involve various body movements. Classes range from water aerobics, restorative yoga, hiking, biking, pickleball, HIIT (high-intensity interval training), boxing, and fun games that keep you engaged and moving. Many guests often find themselves enjoying these activities so much that they don’t realize how many calories they burned having a great time. Curious about just how many calories you could potentially burn participating in these recreations? Check out our list of 10 fun ways that we burn calories on the farm. It even includes a calorie burn calculator!

Our trainers work together to build exercise modifications that allow you to build strength and coordination to get to the next level of your fitness journey safely.
Every day you will work with the Fit Farm trainers for up to 7 hours. This ensures that you are on track with your progress and allows for a safe environment that promotes injury prevention, which we take very seriously here on the farm.

The food at fat farms vs fit farm
Food can be an intimidating topic when it comes to considering any kind of weight loss camp or fat farm for seniors. Being starved of nutrients is not a healthy plan of attack for any weight loss journey. Our philosophy at Fit Farm is “real food for real people.” We don’t want to take away the comfort foods we’ve all grown to love. During your stay, you can look forward to having a healthy burger, chicken parmesan, chicken curry, chili, and even pizza! Yes, you can eat pizza and still lose weight. What's our secret? In order to achieve a well-balanced lifestyle, it's important to consider the foods we eat, portion sizes, and ingredients. At Fit Farm, we help you rethink your perception of food by recreating popular dishes into healthy versions that are both nutritious and delicious. In turn, we pass the knowledge to you so you can craft your favorite meals to match your personal goals at home.
We meant it when we said that we’re not your typical fat farm for seniors. Check out some of the mouthwatering food that awaits you at Fit Farm!

My husband needs to lose 100 lbs to get knee surgery. Mobility is a real issue. Also is anything covered by insurance?
Hi Kari, thank you for your inquiry. Your best bet would be to give our team a call (615-667-8055) to discuss if the program would be a good fit for your husband. Regarding insurance, you will need to work with your doctor and your insurance company to determine your available coverage. To start the process, work with your doctor to declare a medical necessity and submit for reimbursement through your insurance medical savings account. We’ve provided a form to help with this process which can be downloaded here.

What are the all-inclusive fees? If I take Amtrak how would I get to the farm? What state are you in? Do you test hormones so we know what type diet to go home with?

– How to get from the farm from Amtrak: We offer shuttle service ($50 each way) from Nashville Airport on Sundays at either 11:30 am or 3 pm. You could take a taxi to the airport and catch the shuttle or you can hire a taxi/Uber and come directly to the farm.
– We are located in Castalian Springs, TN, just 40 miles outside of Nashville.
– Because we are a fitness facility, not a medical facility, we do not test for hormones. However, if you attend the weight loss program, you can have blood work done prior to your stay and bring that with you for evaluation with our team. For more information on blood work click here: https://rockspringsrc.com/fit-farm-weight-loss-retreats/#bloodwork
– Before you go home, our team will work with you to create a 14-day plan so you can continue your journey beyond the farm.
