Corporate Wellness Australia and Technogym partner to enhance corporate health and fitness programs
Corporate Wellness Australia and Technogym have partnered to offer enhanced technology and equipment to bring change through corporate health and fitness programs.
Aiming to continue its year-on-year success in engaging with business professionals via corporate gyms, Corporate Wellness Australia (CWA) partnered with Technogym earlier this year in order to offer an online portal that tied fitness programs and data together.
With CWA requiring the ability to track general movement, exercise and dieting habits along with storing and managing health data, the partnership is enabling CWA to tap into Technogym’s existing technology and together, create equipment and cloud based systems and programs that deliver positive results to the individual.
The first step in the operation of the partnership sees the evaluation of employee needs and health risk levels to create a successful program. Individual results are stored on the Technogym-powered MyWellness Cloud, which is accessible on any mobile device or laptop.
Corporate Wellness Australia Chief Executive, Wayne Dart explains “when we heard about the profound capabilities of Technogym’s MyWellness Cloud and how it interacts with the equipment, we knew we had an offering that was second to none in the corporate health space.
Via the MyWellness portal, CWA can offer a complete wellness journey, from the initial body scan which feeds personal health related data to the delivery of individualised programs and the tracking of activity through to recording and progress feedback.
The latest organisations to be equipped with state-of-the-art Technogym equipment are Qantas Head Office and News Corp in Sydney, reaching approximately 4,000 people.
Within these organisations, people are generally working out during their lunchtime for up to 45 minutes, followed by them showering and returning to their desks.
The participation is split between organised group exercise, usage of cardio equipment and pin loaded or free weights.
The data gained from each individual can be used to establish generalisations about the workforce, which can then be used as feedback to specific industry governing bodies with the aim of creating long-term positive health strategies.
With access to these corporate gyms and wellness programs, CWA and Technogym are contributing to increased productivity levels, minimal absenteeism rates and positive mental health.
Technogym Marketing Manager Giulio Gasperini explains “since implementing our Technogym products and services across the gyms, CWA have seen a vast increase in gym membership numbers and gym usage. In News Corp’s Head Office, there has been an uplift of approximately 50% in new members.”
Acknowledging the great results that are being achieved, Dart adds “working with Technogym has allowed Corporate Wellness Australia to offer premium products and services to our corporate clients that previous to our relationship, we had only dreamed about.”
