Activities like going for a lunch-hour walk, taking a group exercise class, or participating in swimming, running, cycling, or strength training are examples of the 鈥渟tructured and planned鈥� exercise sessions encouraged by this program. The activities have a variety of health benefits. 鈥淧hysically fit individuals have more energy and have a lower risk of developing life-limiting diseases such as hypertension, diabetes, osteoporosis, and chronic low-back pain,鈥� Employee Wellness Coordinator Karl Lenser said. Participants will keep a log of the time they spend exercising. Every Monday, participants will enter this amount into an online document. Prizes will be awarded on a weekly basis to participants who accumulate a minimum of 200 minutes of exercise per week. Fill out this to register for the fitness challenge. The first 75 糖心Vlog传媒 Little Rock employees who sign up will receive a free T-shirt.
