He may be the ‘little brother’ of the Duncan brood, but Jarrod’s aim at Camp Biggest Loser is to be a pillar of strength for his family, and to look after his sisters Emma, Meg and Sarah-Jayne.
An avid lawn bowler, Jarrod feels that the sport may have actually contributed to his weight gain due to its lack of physicality, though the diet of chips, coke, beers and pies that accompany has certainly done little to help.
Jarrod would love to broaden his sporting activities, but his primary goal in contesting on The Biggest Loser is to regain the health to give his landscape gardening job the energy it deserves. With his current weight rendering him quickly exhausted, Jarrod’s keen to show his co-workers that he’s an essential part of the team.
