How A Lunchtime Workout Can Boost ROI

For a relatively healthy person, a regular fitness regimen should be beneficial in varying aspects of life. It can help reduce inflammation, improve brain health, increase mobility, lessen feelings of stress and anxiety, maintain weight, elevate energy, alertness, and mood, and more.

But wait, there’s more!

If you’re looking to boost your chances for a promotion, boost ROI, or get even more shi*t done, then add that workout to your calendar.

It’s said that exercise can also help combat fatigue, increase productivity, and improve sleep, and memory retention. This can also inadvertently help with punctuality, brain fog, midday slumps, and more.  

We know you may be asking how you can possibly add one more thing to an already-packed schedule. But hear us out…how about knowing it can increase revenue?

Turns out, if you support your employees, allow them to take advantage of the wellness perks you’re offering, and listen to their needs, you can increase your revenue.

Happy, healthy employees are known to:

  • Take fewer sick days

  • Work more efficiently leading to better sales performance

  • Reduce healthcare costs for the company

  • Bond with other employees more

According to this article, “Gallup says engaged teams are 21 percent more productive than teams with low engagement.”

Taking a general midday break can help you refocus, destress, and reset if things are feeling a bit Monday-ish in the middle of a Wednesday.

Adding fitness to that break, especially before a big meeting or presentation, can enhance brain power, boost learning ability, promote creativity, increase energy, and help with productivity. Instead of reaching for artificial caffeine or sweets, let natural endorphins help you close that deal.

Employees who take a midday fitness break are reported to also manage their time better and feel more work satisfaction in general.
