Product Philosophy
WorkSpace WorkOut calendars are designed to help employees be active in small spaces such as their office or cubicle. Studies have shown that employees who are more active throughout their day are healthier and have less stress than employees who remain sedentary for long periods of time. Activity increases blood and oxygen flow, and improves range of motion, muscle tone and flexibility which all contribute to increased energy levels and productivity.
Since it is a calendar, the physical therapist has structured the routines to get progressively more challenging throughout the year. By starting off slowly, employees will not get discouraged and sore, thus preventing them from continuing to perform subsequent exercises. Instead, employees will gradually build up to more difficult exercises and stretches that will enable greater flexibility and strength throughout the year.
Product Layout
Weekday pages of the calendar include three different exercises with each exercise containing the following elements:
Weekend pages contain encouraging messages, small goals and a suggestion on how to improve the employee's health in the upcoming week. Below is a sample of a weekend page:
Routines
Each exercise will be in multiple routines. Some routines will introduce new movements, and others will review movements introduced in earlier weeks. When an exercise is first introduced, it will be combined into a routine with exercises introduced in earlier weeks and will only be performed once that week in order to avoid straining the newly engaged muscles.
Exercises will be either focused on stretching or light aerobic activity. Each exercise has been carefully selected so that it can be performed using items commonly found in offices such as a desk or chair.
