Retro Fitness Fairfield Announces Free Team Training for Employees of Local Businesses

Posted

Studies show that our brainpower is connected to our physical activity. At work, exercise results in some impressive traits, such as cognitive benefits, more focus, a sharper memory, much stronger concentration, a must faster learning curve when learning new tasks, lowered stress and better mental strength.

Healthier staff also leads to a more profitable company. One great example of fitness and wellness at the workplace that paid off in a company’s bottom line is reported by Johnson and Johnson. The firm reports their company saved $250 million on health care costs over the past 10 years.

Science has proven beyond a doubt that employees who exercise on a regular basis will not only be more focused and happy, but also save their companies substantial amounts of money.

In Silicon Valley, the most successful companies in the world like Apple, Twitter, Google and others offer their employees perks including exercise programs.

Now, right here in New Jersey, local fitness center Retro Fitness Fairfield announced they are launching a new program aimed at helping businesses grow and prosper while helping their employees enjoy the benefits of workouts.

Studies show employees who exercise enjoy health benefits not only at work but also at home. If you work out for at least 30 minutes, three times a week, you are 15 percent more likely to have a much higher job performance. With exercise comes better focus. Employees who are offered workouts and healthy activities by their employers are 18 percent more focused and engaged at work.

At the same time, businesses who offer their staff gym memberships see a 27 percent reduced rate of absenteeism, which saves money for their employers. With health care costs skyrocketing, saving on health care is one of the top ways businesses can impact their bottom line.

The idea behind this free month of Team Training is the brainchild of Michael Marinaccio.

“We have such an amazing fitness center right in Fairfield, and time and time again, we see members who start out sluggish and unhappy with their health or appearance,” said Marinaccio. “After a few months, it’s like a magic button was pressed, because these same people are laughing at the gym, working out with a smile and looking plus feeling a lot better. I know from my own experience how exercise can make not just your muscles but your business stronger. This is a great way for local businesses to do something fantastic for their employees, and also for their bottom line. Most insurance companies pay back businesses when their staff participates in some kind of exercise program.”

How It Works:

Free month of Team training is for up to 25 employees

Monday - Saturday  Afternoons and Sunday morning

Wednesday & Friday evenings

Free Month of Team training is limited to 1 x a week for 4 weeks
