Successful Workplace Wellness

Today’s successful business leaders know the unlimited rewards they can expect when they invest in their greatest hidden asset – their employees.

It’s no secret… offer the right resources to your employees, and your business will prosper. If you invest in your staff, inevitably your employees will contribute more, perform better, and excel in customer relations. Committed employees directly affect the performance of every business competing in today’s marketplace.

Northwest Personal Training brings its expertise to help your business create healthier, happier employees. We offer a variety of workplace training programs designed to fit your needs and meet your bottom line.

The end result of any Health and fitness program should include increased employee productivity, improved employee morale with respect to their relationship to the organization, decreased utilization of employer-subsidized health benefits, and decreased employee absenteeism due to health-related causes. Obviously, an improvement in any of these will have a positive impact on the financial status of any organization. The benefit from the employee’s standpoint is improved health and energy levels, decreased body fat, and a more youthful, fit body.

The most productive way to achieve both management’s, as well as the employee’s, goals is through a program that will provide the individual employee with an awareness of their current physical condition, the benefits of attaining a “more fit” lifestyle, and a plan that will permit them to achieve the necessary changes to their physical condition that can be readily applied in the context of their life.

Programs

“Northwest Personal Training has provided an outstanding boost to our company. The mental and physical wellness of our team is critically important, but as an employer, you can only go so far in motivating people to address certain areas of their lives. Exposing our team to the positive, goal-oriented influence of Northwest Personal Training has helped many of us shift our priorities in the right direction which has led to great results. The upbeat, non-judgmental approach of Northwest Personal Training is the key to overcoming the “blahs” in any organization.”
