Coast brother-in-laws, passionate about helping kids live healthy lives will next week educate nearly 2000 students on healthy eating and active living through fun and interactive programs.

Cam Best and Chris Windsor started Juiced Up Groms, which offers weekly park sessions and educational shows in December 2019 and have since gone from strength to strength despite COVID-19 limiting their ability to present in schools.

Mr Best, who is a father-of-three and studies nutrition, said the Juiced Up Living show used a variety of storytelling games, characters and smoothie making to help children understand the basic concepts of eating healthy and enjoying life.

He said they received an influx of bookings for the Juiced Up Living Show and had to extend their roadshow to seven days so they could visit 12 schools in Toowoomba and perform for more than 1700 students.

We are super excited about that and for us its all about getting out there and showing these kids a message about healthy living, he said.

To impact them at such a young age to us means the world because we know that if we can give them some really simple information about living a healthy life at a young age its going to make such a difference to them later on.

We see it as such an honour and responsibility to be able to teach these kids about healthy living that is going to dramatically improve their lifestyle and how they feel.

The upcoming roadshow marks a new beginning for Juiced Up Groms after COVID-19 drastically reduced their ability to run educational activities.

Our Juiced Up Living Show was really starting to make some inroads just before COVID-19 and then we pretty much had to drop the anchor and hit the brakes for probably four months, Mr Windsor said.

A lot of the schools had to cancel shows because there were no visitors allowed in schools but Cam and myself took it upon ourselves to do online workouts which we were doing every day for 13 weeks.

So, we sort of lost our momentum and had to start from scratch and this will put us back on track for a good end of year.

Mr Windsor said they were motivated to help children live healthy lives.

We are extremely passionate about helping kids and getting them to understand the importance of fuelling their bodies the right way, so they are fit and healthy and have strong immune systems especially in a time like this,
