With growing health awareness it becomes increasingly important for companies to offer a work environment that pro-actively promotes health (at the very least does not harm it). This is especially crucial as demographics in most industrialized nations require companies to address topics like health to stay competetive for top young talent. If you were to advise a company to establish solid workplace health fundamentals, the 80/20 of it if you will, what would you tell them? What are the crucial elements to have in place? Thanks and keep up the good work, gents!
I am following a lot of accounts that promote body diversity as I am doing research into body image. The health information is conflicting with many of the professionals in this space notably around the impact of being in a Larger and it's impact on overall health and mortality and also (and I know you've recently covered this) the detrimental impact of dieting on health markers. Where do you stand with this movement - is body size important If behaviours are 'healthy'
I have always thought that any resistance and/or strength training was good for both health and managing potential side effects of menopause such as decreased bone density etc., but a strength trainer has recently told me that unless you are consistently increasing the weights you use, then simply using weights is not enough to make a difference- is this true and how can you make this form of exercise accessible to all if this is true and this would require a gym and specialist training?
