AFTER HOURS
SWEAT! ON THE MOOR
FITFORWORK A healthy workforce is a productive one so get your gym kit out of the cupboard, slip on your running shoes and find the perfect fitness centre for you from our list We all know we need to be more active at work. But a study of more than 14,000 people last year was a real eye-opener after revealing that on weekdays people who worked reported a longer amount of time sitting down than pensioners. It’s enough to get us all ditching the lift for the stairs or strolling over for a chat with colleagues instead of ‘pinging them an email’. In Sheffield we have companies like Seven Hills – South Yorkshire’s number one corporate health and wellbeing company – delivering energetic and engaging workouts for employees of all abilities at
64
workplaces across the region. But for those who want to swap the office for the gym before or after work – or on their lunch break – there are plenty of corporate packages on offer. Here we swap the suits for cycling shorts and take a look at a selection: Who – SWEAT!
