Thank you for attending the recent exercise session with Henry and Ben!
During the session, we focused on functional fitness, specifically in relation to manual handling jobs, using resistance bands. Functional fitness exercises are designed to improve strength, flexibility, balance, and overall body functionality. By incorporating these exercises into your routine, you can enhance your physical abilities and reduce the risk of injury while performing manual handling tasks.
Functional fitness exercises such as squats, lunges, deadlifts, and core strengthening movements help to strengthen the muscles used in manual handling jobs. The improved strength and flexibility acquired through functional fitness training can enable you to lift and move objects more efficiently and with better control, thus reducing the risk of strain or injury.
We hope that this session has provided you with valuable insights and practical tools to carry forward in both your personal and professional lives. Remember, investing in your health and wellbeing is not only beneficial for yourself, but it also contributes to a safer and more productive work environment.
