Corporate Fitness

Corporate Fitness does not have to be complicated, and certainly not expensive. I have been training professionals from every occupation, and I will provide fitness services to your employees effieciently and cost-effectively.  If you are an employer then you are well aware of the need for healthy, high-functioning employees. The fitness and personal development from exercise provide direct value to your company including reduced absenteeism and health care expenses. At the same time, employees with avid fitness recreation are going to arrive at work ready to get the job done, with lower stress and physical ailments.  
 
The main premises of my corporate fitness program are accountability, shared investment, and appropriate programming.  

• Accountability: By providing an opportunity for an exercise program, you are saying to your employees that you care about their well-being. When a corporate fitness program is introduced in the context as a fringe benefit, then they will appreciate your gesture of concern.  At the same time, employees share the responsibility for self-care.  Each of us must adopt health habits (sleep, eating right, hydration, stress management, and of courese exercise) or face the consequences.  This leads to the next premise....
 
• *Shared Investment: A fitter, healthier workforce will provide greater output and value for your company.  This is a real value for you, the employer.  This is also a fringe benefit which may be much more valuable then a few more dollars at the end of the month in one's paycheck.  At the same time, for someone to truly appreciate the value of personal training, it helps if you have a personal investment in the program.  When clients pre-pay for their training sessons, they are more motivated to show up.
The recommended arrangement is for the employee to pay for part or all of the cost of participation, then based on attendance they receive reimbursement for that investment. Usually the employer agrees to pay some portion of the actual registration cost; a greater percentage if the employee achieves a goal attendance rate.   

• Appropriate Programming: As your corporate fitness provider, I will provide individual and group personal training tailored to the goals, needs, and interests of your employees. Foremost among my goals will be targeting issues of workplace ergonomics (knees, back, wrists, neck) specific to the demands of your company. I'll also improve the general fitness needed to meet the demands of daily life. In the case of group fitness programs (which provide the BEST value for your corporate fitness dollar) I will include themes of team building, communication, and morale improvement. 

Remember, I am not just training the bodily physical FITNESS of your employees.  I am seeking overall PERSONAL DEVELOPMENT. My training in counseling psychology, executive coaching, organizational development, and stress management will be utilized in the overall corporate fitness play you receive.
