What does your daily or weekly fitness regime consist of? I do 3-5 workouts a week that include runs, swim or biking.
What fitness clubs do you belong to, if any? Waukesha YMCA/Westwood Health & Fitness
Other than the obvious health benefits, how has being fit improved your life? Being fit has increased endurance when working outdoors and climbing on roofs/ladders. Being fit also helps with focus at work and overall energy.
How does personal fitness affect your work life? Personal fitness gives me the ability to focus during the work day and gives me increased energy.
How does fitness or wellness affect your overall organization? We believe that personal fitness is important for the overall well being and health of our team. Fewer sick days and better morale.
What advice do you have for other executives interested in starting either a personal fitness plan or corporate wellness initiative? Just do it! The hardest part is getting started and to make it part of your daily or weekly routine. One has to make the time in their schedule otherwise it does not happen.
