Physical Fitness


Welcome to the Physical Fitness section of GetFit!

Many employees struggle with physical fitness. Long work shifts, demanding family responsibilities, and a high level of stress at work or at home are some of the reasons.

But keeping physically fit is one of the best things that people can do for their health and well-being. Physical fitness, when combined with healthy eating:
  • Boosts the immune system, so it can do a better job of fighting illnesses
  • Can prevent or reduce many serious conditions, such as obesity, type-2 diabetes, some cancers, and cardiovascular disease
  • Builds strong bones and muscles
  • Increases energy and endurance
  • Facilitates sleep
  • Improves mood and alertness
  • Enhances productivity
  • Helps prevent falls (in older adults)
  • Can add quality years to one’s life
This section of GetFit gives quick access to many facts and tools that can make it easier to "GetFit" and stay fit.
