Corporate Health
What can corporate training do for you?
Being motivated, energetic and fresh in mind are prerequisites for performing well. This is important both in everyday life, your free time and in the workplace.
The more physically taxable you are, the more mentally taxable you are. It is common knowledge that after a good night’s sleep you are reset, you are fresh in your mind and able to absorb new information and work productively.
This same effect a workout has on our bodies. Brief physical exertion provides relaxation and allows us to clear our heads and this in turn has an enormous positive effect on mental focus and decisive work.
Top performance is demanded in business, so it is important for employees to perform as well as possible physically and mentally.

The benefits of corporate training
Employers benefit from healthy and fit employees. Although employees may already be well motivated by themselves to lose weight and maintain good physical health, employers can provide additional incentives to encourage them to do so.
An already common method is to offer workplace exercise before, during or after work hours.
Employer benefits
Lower health care costs
When employees exercise regularly, their overall health improves. Regular exercise can lead to weight loss, it can lower blood pressure and help reduce the risk of chronic diseases. This can result in lower healthcare costs, which of course reduces overall operating costs.
Less absence
Employees who exercise regularly have better overall health and therefore greater resistance to disease. According to experts, offering sports in the workplace and beyond can also make employees less likely to catch a cold. That directly affects the overall cost of sick days.
Cheaper than a subscription
Some companies offer their employees a discount on an annual membership at a fitnesss. However, according to research, people who pay for a membership are less likely to maintain a long-term habit of exercising. Therefore, paying for discounts on fitness memberships may not be cost-effective.
Convenience
The convenience of exercising in the workplace can increase the likelihood that employees will actually exercise. It is not always easy to make time to go to a gym or fitness center after a long day at work. If you have the opportunity to work out at the company where you work, it is easier to fit sports into a busy daily schedule.
Employee benefits
Improving productivity
When you exercise regularly, you experience more benefits than just weight loss and staying in shape. Doing exercise helps you improve all aspects of your life, including productivity at work. If you are alert and productive at work you will get your work done faster and be more likely to get a promotion. If you don’t exercise regularly you can put your health and your job at risk.
Alertness and energy
One way exercise increases your productivity is to optimize your alertness. When you exercise you also increase blood flow to your brain. This can increase your awareness, which allows you to tackle the next big project faster. Doing exercises can also give you more energy. This makes you more awake at work. If you are on top of something, you are guaranteed to perform your work better and to the best of your ability.
Optimal physical health
If you are optimally physically healthy, your overall work capacity will improve. Not only will your body weight decrease and you will be at less risk for cardiovascular disease, but you will also gain more stamina. As a result, you can better meet the physical demands of your job. This also reduces your risk of injury at work, and it makes you better able to meet daily expectations.
Improved mental health
Another way to be more productive at work is to improve your mental health. Exercising regularly reduces your feelings of anxiety and depression. Exercising releases serotonin in your brain, which helps you feel better and improves your overall mood. Serotonin is a neurotransmitter that sends messages to your body and boosts your mood and emotions. This makes it easier to deal with stress at work. Regular exercise can also help you cope better with stress in the workplace. When you can handle stress constructively, it can lead to better relationships with co-workers, and that can give you a more secure future with your employer.
Prevention of disease
Regular exercise can reduce the risk of developing certain diseases. As a result, you’ll have fewer sick days at work. With an improved immune system, you minimize your chances of getting the flu and developing colds. Exercise also reduces the development of type 2 diabetes, obesity, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disease. All of which can affect your productivity
