What is the Price of Doing Nothing?

Home > Quick Fit > What is the Price of Doing Nothing?

Most Americans know they should exercise — but they just don't do it.

The lack of time for physical activity, combined with increased food portion sizes, has led to an obesity epidemic that is out of control. According to a survey by Hewitt Associates, U.S. Companies will pay an average of 9.9% more for worker?s health insurance next year, almost doubling the average cost per employee of five years ago. With medical benefits expenses on the rise, not promoting Quick Fit to your employees is a costly mistake.

While recent U.S. governmental guidelines recommend that all Americans exercise 60 to 90 minutes on most days, it is estimated that more than 60% of American adults are not physically active on a regular basis and 25% of adults are not active at all. Research studies continue to show that moderate amounts of physical activity are beneficial. Even as little as fifteen minutes a day, or 105 minutes a week, can make a dramatic change in an employee's overall health and a company's financial health.
