Here are 8 undeniable benefits of exercise for the workplace:

1. Fit employees are less likely to get sick: A person who is physically fit is often more resilient in the face of a sniffle. Reduced absenteeism and reduced health care expenditures are the result of a fit employee base.
2. Fit employees have more energy: One of the many benefits of regular exercise is increased and sustained energy throughout the day. This energy allows the employee to stay focused on the task at hand and maximising their enjoyment of the work.
3. Fit employees have more self-confidence: A fit and healthy individual tends to have a high level of self-confidence, because they have proven to themselves that they can accomplish what it takes to set and achieve a goal. This self-confidence empowers the employee to challenge themselves, and strive for higher levels of achievement in the workplace.
4. Fit employees inspire confidence: Any person who maintains a high fitness level demonstrates to others they are competent and capable.
5. Fit employees tend to take on more leadership roles: Because of the increased confidence, fit people tend to open themselves to leadership roles more frequently.
6. Fit employees set and achieve goals: Learning to stay true to your goals and see them through to completion is a skill that is naturally brought into the workplace. An employee with the proven ability to set goals and then achieve those goals is a valuable asset to any organization.
7. Fit employees tend to have better attitudes: Fit employees tend to have a physical and mental “balance” that results in a more positive attitude in the workplace.
8. Fit employees are less stressed: Regular exercise releases the physical and emotional tensions that life brings our way, thus a fit employee tends to have lower overall stress levels than an employee who does not engage in regular exercise.
