A group of Tongan-Australians have banded together to break the cycle of over-eating in their community.
They train six days a week, starting in the early hours of the morning, and have expanded the workout program to include cardio and fitness classes like Zumba, yoga, and Boxfit.
High rates of obesity put the community at high risk of non-communicable diseases, such as diabetes, kidney and heart disease.
The group hopes Brumby Fitness will help act as a preventative health platform that can be replicated in other communities.
