Companies of all shapes and sizes are striving to make physical fitness part of their employees’ lives. Aside from the proven health benefits of exercise, physically fit employees can also handle physical work tasks better, deal with stressful situations more easily, and tend to be less susceptible to illness and injuries. Companies are discovering the positive benefits of providing workplace fitness programs. They’re realizing that huge funds being spent on employees’ medical health problems can be drastically cut by proactively investing in appropriately designed corporate fitness programs. Statistics show that companies with corporate fitness programs enjoy: Reduced healthcare costs, increased productivity, reduced absenteeism, decreased recruitment and retraining costs, improved employee concentration, mental alertness and creativity, and improved physical and emotional health, leading to better employee morale. The benefit from the employee’s standpoint is improved health and energy levels, decreased body fat, and a more youthful, fit body.

Like many people on Feb 25th, 2010 I watched President Obama and the live debate on health care reform. A few times during the discussion I heard the term “prevention” used but unless I missed it, I never heard anyone talk about how personal fitness trainers can help.
- Doctors see their patients for about 5 to 10 minutes once a year – if they are lucky.
- Nurses usually only see people when they are in the doctor’s office or hospital, again, usually when people are sick and then only have a very limited time with their patients.
- Physical therapists only see people when they get hurt –and that stops as soon as insurance runs out. Many PT’s are overworked also, seeing several people simultaneously. This limits the time to help educate people about how to stay healthy.
Personal fitness trainers see the people they work with 3-5 days a week for an average of 30 to 60 minutes a day!
Fitness trainers – more than any other member of the health care system – can have a profound effect to change the health of Americans for the better.
Exercise has been shown to reduce the risk of a number of health conditions. Just a few include:
- Heart disease – the number 1 killer of both men and women.
- Cancer – the number 2 leading cause of death.
- Stroke. The number 3 leading cause of death in America.
Think about how much money could be saved if we could simultaneously reduce the risk of just the 3 leading causes of death in America.
No drug in the world will do this and reduce all 3 at the same time – except exercise!
Exercise reduces the risk of many other conditions also.
- Every year, American employers lose over 300 billion dollars of productivity due to illness, sick days, absenteeism and sub-par performance (“presenteeism”).
- For every dollar an employer spends on salaries and wages, American employers spend a minimum of an additional 10 cents on health insurance and workers’ compensation costs. – Corporate Wellness Magazine
- The average health cost for an employer-sponsored health plan is over $9000. – NCHC, 2009

Since 2009, Big Joe Williams’ traveling fitness classes have been an important component of our overall workplace wellness program, beWell; offering our Associates access to on-site fitness instruction in an environment where a traditional on-site fitness center does not pencil. Joe brings the necessary workout equipment, so all Associates need to do is show up for class. It’s convenient and fun, and the encouragement Associates get from fellow classmates helps build engagement at the office. Joe’s coaching style is serious yet compassionate layering in nutrition and weight-loss to an overall fitness program changing – in some cases drastically – our Associate’s lives for the better.
