Answer: There are no requirements to our benefited and non-benefited employees of how much physical activity is required. We know that some physical activity is better than none. You can start slowly and build up from there!
The participation-based wellness program is a way to personalize and customize the activity that allows you to take steps to improve your health and lifestyle. From casual walking to running a marathon or riding a bike (don’t forget the helmet!) Swimming, dancing, participating in charity events, and joining a class or sports league are great options!
Work together as a team and find activities with co-workers that help build relationships in the workplace, such as walking, after-work yoga classes, weightlifting classes, reading groups, and cooking classes. Then, the sky’s the limit!
Please take steps that will help you be physically active and get involved in activities that can help you live healthier lives.
