7 Minute Mornings is a tried and tested solution for the larger population to help them to fit exercise into their lives. Using modern science to provide the same fitness results as the average gym-goer but in just 7 minutes per day your employees can get fitter and healthier with a small amount of daily exercise. 

We are all aware of the benefits of regular exercise, but are you aware that when you increase the intensity level over short periods you in-turn increase the production of happy hormones? For example with 7 Minute Mornings you release high levels of serotonin to help improve your mood, noradrenaline which enhances brain activity and dopamine that boosts motivation levels. Collectively these hormones improve the way you think and feel.

On top of this, there is a protein released known by some as "miracle growth for the brain" called Brain Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF) which improves memory and processing speed and some studies indicate it may even be capable of increasing your IQ. Your employees can be more alert, productive, motivated and even think faster with just 7 minutes of exercise per day.

With Cancer affecting 1 in 2 of us in the UK, heart disease killing 25,000 each year and type 2 diabetes still on the rise, businesses around the country are losing money through sickness. However, we see a shift in the way companies are looking at the issue of physical and mental health in their employees. They are now actively seeking positive solutions to support the happiness and health of each employee.

 

After all it's the people that make the business. Here at 7 Minute Mornings we believe that the best approach for tackling sickness and disease is fitness and nutrition. This is not news, this is a very old truth that remains the same today as it has always done. When people exercise more they will remain fitter with less likelihood of disease; conversely when they don't move at all the chances of the above named conditions sky rocket meaning increased absenteeism and the bottom line drops along with employee health and happiness.

When it comes to getting better and fitter it's all about the compounding effect of making small daily improvements - even as little as 1% - that add up to a huge number over time. Exercise works in the same way. That's why in all of our 7 Minute Mornings workouts week-by-week those small improvements in fitness are met by incrementally increasing physical challenges. Starting at a Pre-Condition level, you can progress through Beginner, up to Intermediate and on to the dizzying heights of Advanced. When you start a programme that helps you reach that 1% improvement every day you will benefit from a huge number of improvements in your body, heath and fitness. Here are just a few worth mentioning:
1. Stronger and Healthier Heart 
2. Reduced Body Fat
3. Improved Mood and Motivation
4. Increased Energy Levels
5. Enhanced Productivity 
6. Better Muscle Tone
7. Decreased Risk of Disease
