The E.U. loses around 2.5% of its national GDP due to employees missing work. Research shows that health problems (like obesity) are the most common cause.

How to gain an unfair
advantage in business
and in life
The average employee sits for an average of 13 hours daily. The desk bound lifestyle is causing an epidemic in lower back pain, obesity, and work-related/lifestyle (preventable) illnesses. Germany spent 12.5% of their GDP on healthcare costs in 2020.
Across Europe, the annual healthcare costs related to a sedentary lifestyle range from 1.9% to 4.7%, with an additional 2.8% of annual hospital costs. The link between obesity and chronic disease is a significant factor in these rising costs, posing a clear threat to your company’s financial health.
Unfortunately, the situation is not improving, and your company risks significant losses. The United States is losing over one billion dollars annually in health care due to lower back pain and over twenty billion in employer costs treating carpel tunnel. These figures are the tip of the iceberg regarding how much employers spend on their sick and broken workforce.
“I WENT FROM DAILY LOWER BACK PAIN TO ALMOST NOTHING IN A FEW WEEKS. SOMETIMES I FIND MYSELF WISHING IT WOULD RETURN, ONLY SO I CAN TEST MY NEW EXERCISES.”

Move more or die younger
The study, commissioned by ISCA (International Sport and Culture Association), shows that half a million Europeans die yearly due to being physically inactive. The most common causes of death are those diseases linked to being physically inactive, such as coronary heart disease, type II diabetes, and colorectal and breast cancer. One in four adults across Europe is currently physically inactive – as are four out of five adolescents. The total cost to Europe’s economy from such widespread inactivity was over € 80 billion a year – € 5 billion more than the world spends on cancer drugs yearly. If nothing is done to get people moving and more active in their day-to-day lives, physical inactivity could pose a more significant risk to public health in the future than smoking.
Move More or Die Younger
An Australian study suggests that every hour of sitting reduces your lifespan by 20 minutes. To avoid early death, learn how to make standing your default position.

Sleep science
Sleep more or suffer
the consequence
Sleeping less than eight hours an evening costs your company a fortune and kills you. Over 35% of working professionals sleep less than seven hours an evening. Germany loses over 60 billion annually, with over 200,000 lost working days annually (rand.org).
Can you function with less sleep? One out of one thousand can sleep less than seven hours without cognitive loss. Research clearly states that “sleep debt” can’t be regained – you will die younger.
Inefficient sleep is bankrupting your company, shortening your retirement (because you’re dead), and robbing your family of a loved one.
Learn how to sleep deeper, travel more intelligently, and ensure you are ready for the day.
POOR SLEEPERS REPORTED 2.29 DAYS OF UNPLANNED MISSED WORKDAYS IN THE PAST MONTH DUE TO POOR HEALTH, COMPARED WITH 0.91 DAYS FOR ALL OTHER WORKERS.
POOR-SLEEPING WORKERS MORE LIKELY TO CHANGE JOBS.
FIXING SLEEP (TIME AND QUALITY) IS ESTIMATED TO SAVE $32.4 BILLION IN REPLACEMENT COSTS.
1 out of 1000 people can sleep less than six hours and not have adverse effects. Your chances of getting hit twice by lightning are greater than havin this genetic abnormality.

My
History
At ten years old, I was diagnosed with ADHD, ADD, depression, and bipolar disorder, and doctors prescribed Ritalin, Adderall, and Prozac. Years later, I discovered that food allergies were the culprit – all my so-called “illnesses” were easily treatable with better food choices and movement.
Combine that with excruciating pain from scoliosis and poor mobility, causing multiple bouts of extremely painful tendonitis. Numerous doctors and physical therapists related this to my scoliosis and told me I could do nothing.
The medical profession’s lack of hope and empathy sent me on a mission to help myself and teach others to do the same.
I graduated in 2004 with an athletic training/Sports Medicine degree and in 2007 with a Master of Science in Human Performance and Injury Prevention. I have worked with organizations like the ATP, AVP, WTA, NFL, NHL, and MLB and multiple Olympic and world champions like Martina Hingis, Victoria Azarenka, John McEnroe, and Adrian Peterson, to name a few.
I lived in Cairo for five years, learned Arabic, and helped develop a top ten world-ranked junior – and was almost killed in the Egyptian revolution and kidnapped in Nigeria while doing it!
