In designing the session Sinclair expressed taking special care to cater to all fitness levels, ensuring that everyone from beginners to fitness enthusiasts could participate and benefit. Adding to the value of the training session for GenAc employees Sinclair was accompanied by Dr. Kimone Young, a Medical Doctor with a passion for public health and who is also a fitness enthusiast and active dancer. She also provided the participants with dietary advice which would further impact them beyond the session.
“High Interval Intensity workout involves short bursts of intense aerobic exercise that lets you workout at your maximal level with short rest periods. It attracts different forms of routine and movements that will keep the body burning even when finished,” explained Sinclair. By providing these resources, the general insurance giant supports the physical and mental well-being of its employees, ultimately enhancing their performance and job satisfaction.
“They had a fun-filled training session with insight of our business and what we offer or do outside of just having a training session. Information was also shared on health and wellness and workplace ergonomics and how to keep consistent in their fitness journey. The participants worked up quite a sweat and enjoyed each moment of the session,” expressed Sinclair.
Following the session, participants had a chance to ask their questions about fitness, nutrition, and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
