5 Ways Joining Fresh Start Fitness Studio Can Make You Money
Better Mental Acuity
Exercise improves cognitive ability, as shown in multiple studies. In “Spark,” Dr. John Ratey explains how exercise enhances focus, combats depression, and helps make better decisions. A sharp mind benefits professionals by improving project management and helps entrepreneurs brainstorm new ideas or revenue streams.
Increased Energy and Immunity
According to the Journal of Occupational and Environmental Medicine, people who work out regularly are more productive and miss less work than those who don’t. Regular physical activity boosts immunity and lowers health risks, reducing absenteeism and increasing productivity. This can lead to better job performance and potential for higher income. The Journal of Labor Research found that men who exercise regularly earn 6% more, and women earn 10% more than their inactive peers.
Health-Care Savings
A 2012 study in the Journal of the American Heart Association found that individuals who exercise adequately save about $2,500 annually on healthcare. At Fresh Start Fitness Studio, we often see members reduce or eliminate medications under their doctors’ guidance after reaching their health and body composition goals. For example, 30 day costs can be substantial:
Cholesterol-lowering drugs: $10-$100 per month.
Diabetes management drugs: $10-$50 per month.
Anti-anxiety medications: $10-$50 per month.
Even with insurance, co-pays add up, so staying fit can lead to significant savings.
Reductions in Clothing Costs
By maintaining a consistent workout routine and healthy nutrition, many of our clients lose weight and fit into their clothes better, avoiding the need to buy larger sizes. While you might spend money on new, smaller clothes, you’ll likely maintain that size with continued fitness efforts, saving money in the long run.
Reduced Fast-Food Costs
Seventy percent of Americans eat fast food three times per week, averaging $12.50 per meal. Clients at Fresh Start Fitness Studio who focus on healthy eating habits often cut this in half by preparing meals and snacks at home. This can save about $18 per week, totaling $936 annually.
