DOES COMPLETING REGULAR EXERCISE REALLY INCREASE PRODUCTIVITY IN THE WORKPLACE?

May 26, 2017realadmin_adminEducation

Productivity is obviously a vital part of your business and any opportunity to improve productivity would surely be appreciated. Especially now with stats showing that ‘sitting is the new smoking’ which has alarmed us that we need to do something about it.

One of the best ways to improve productivity is through exercise! Exercise during the lunch break for your staff allows them to have a mental break from the stress of work and instead have a rush of endorphins. This exercise will lead to:

– Increased focus
– Improved energy levels
– Reduced tiredness
– Increase in workload
– Decrease in stress

The Institute of Healthcare Consumerism even found that regular exercise resulted in a 28% reduction in sick days taken which means a more productive business!

e currently run a fair few cooperate training sessions throughout the Hills District. We understand the importance of healthy and happy staff, as they are such a crucial part to any business so we wanted to give your business the opportunity to also experience the benefits with your first two group sessions on us. This means that you can choose any time or day that suits your team the best for either one session in the week for two weeks or two sessions in the week.
 
If your business has been looking at improving the wellbeing of your staff and you understand the importance of healthy, happy employees in a work place we would love for you to take this opportunity up.

HOW TO EAT WITH AWARENESS 🤔 Being aware and mo HOW TO EAT WITH AWARENESS 🤔

Being aware and more present with our daily nutrition seems to be less and less common. What are some ways we can become more aware of what we eat?

1. Set an intention. How do you want to feel at the end of the day? Tired and lethargic? Or strong & healthy? If the answer is strong & healthy than packaged foods and sugar aren’t going to get you there.

2. Track your food. In order to become more aware we need to understand the calories that are coming in. By tracking your food you can understand what your food is made up of in terms of nutrient value.

3. Where your focus goes your energy will flow. Focus on consuming less processed more whole foods. Less alcohol more water. Increase your protein intake and your sugar consumption will naturally drop off. 

Combining these three things when deciding on meals for the day or week, writing a shopping list or when you are eating out with friends. These simple and very achievable guidelines will help you become more mindful and back on track after the festive season.

HOW TO STOP OVERCOMPLICATING YOUR NUTRITION With HOW TO STOP OVERCOMPLICATING YOUR NUTRITION

With the weight loss industry promoting new diets almost weekly that will shed fat, increase muscle mass, put you into ketosis, detox your organs, improve your physical performance and leave you feeling energised... But only if you exclude certain macronutrients, food groups or just eat meat and animal products only...?
It can be easy to see why people feel confused and lost when it comes to figuring out what they should eat. Today I am going to break it down into the 3 most important takeaways that will get you started on a healthy, balanced path:

1. Calories in VS calories out will always be top priority 🍉: if you eat more calories than you burn, your weight will increase and the inverse is true. Your goals will discern how much or how little you should be eating but by complying with your calorie limit, you will achieve the result you are after
2. Protein Protein Protein 🥩: we talk about it all the time but it is seriously one of the most neglected macronutrients even though it provides the most benefit by far. Protein not only resynthesises muscle which promotes growth (therefore increasing our caloric demand meaning we can eat more) but it also increases satiety, meaning when you consume enough protein, you don’t feel as hungry for the snacks or sweets that will derail you long term 
3. 80:20 Rule🍔: this one is my personal favourite and where most people get stuck. If eating 1 burger on a Saturday night with some friends is what helps you stick to your nutrition plan for the rest of the week, eat the burger. When we don’t allow ourselves to indulge in the things we love every now and then, we inevitably experience burnout and give up entirely. Just remember 80% whole food: 20% soul food.

CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS SUPER ⭐️ BERNADETTE!! CONGRATULATIONS TO THIS SUPER ⭐️ BERNADETTE!!

Bernadette is our latest client of the month. Finding her spot on the wall of fame, Bernadette has had raging success since she first started here at RFT. 

“B” started with the end goal in mind and hasn’t forgotten it since. She has been renamed “Little Miss Consistent” sticking to 
🏋🏼‍♀️x3 PT sessions/wk 
🚶‍♀️committing to increasing her daily movement
📓 tracking her food on a consistent basis over a year and a half
🥵 and getting 1-2 sweat sessions in per week
As a result B’s body composition has consistently (and never spiked or increased at any point!) gone down. Body fat has decreased and muscle has either stayed the same or increased. 

Working in a high pressure full time job, looking after her two precious children, wife, and everything in between Little Miss Consistent definitely deserves these results and more!! 

I am so very excited to see where 2021 takes her. Watch this space!
