Global Fitness Month for Employees

PAULA FULGHUM • March 19, 2025

Global Employee Health and Fitness Month shine a light on mental health during Mental Health Awareness Month.

With that in mind, here are five ways to promote activity and well-being among your workforce.

Strava challenges:

Encourage your employees to participate in Strava challenges. It’s a fun way to boost physical activity and build camaraderie.

Explore new sports:

Consider trying new sports like pickleball (the fastest-growing sport in the U.S. since 2021) or organizing friendly matches of different activities. Variety keeps fitness exciting!

Train for a future walk/fun run:

Plan for a collective walk or fun run in the near future. Start by incorporating short walks into daily routines to prepare for this event.

Lunchtime exercise:

Taking a break for a brisk walk mid-day improves mental well-being and is enough to boost physical health, too. Twenty minutes of brisk walking daily reduces your risk of early death by 16-30%. So gather a few co-workers and use your lunch break to get moving.

Mindfulness:

Remind your employees to incorporate mindfulness into their activities. Simple breathing exercises or moments of reflection can significantly impact their mental health journey.


We’re here to support you in fostering a culture of well-being within your organization.
