Fit4LifeOn Your Marks, Get Set, GO!

Interval training, back fitness, yoga, morning wake-up and stress relief workouts, etc.: With Fit4Life, Uhlmann is offering employees a wide range of courses to improve physical or mental well-being. From January to June 2021, the sports and mental training courses took place online, leaving us calm and poised for the coming fall season. Because training in front of the computer works just as well as in the gym.

In the first half of the year, our Fit4Life training courses were held online and included the following activ­i­ties:

  • High-inten­sity interval training
  • Body­Pump
  • Morning Wake-Up
  • Yoga
  • Back Fitness
  • Body in Balance

Our coop­er­a­tion partner, Sport­park Laupheim, ran the courses with trainer Ute Rothen­bacher. Ute has 25 years’ expe­ri­ence working in the fitness industry and always finds the right mix: from high-inten­sity power work­outs to relaxing, cool down exer­cises.

A fitness trainer, certi­fied IHK fitness instructor, Pilates and rehab sports trainer, Ute creates a fun and moti­vating atmos­phere.

This is what partic­i­pants have to say about the courses:

The HIIT workout with Ute was the perfect after-work pick-me up in these times of coro­n­avirus. I am already looking forward to the next range of courses.

I really enjoyed the course. It was a great alter­na­tive to club sports that had to be cancelled due to the pandemic. In fact, I liked it so much that I will sign up again in parallel with my club sports training.

For me as a mom, it was so easy to join in because I was able to exer­cise without all the orga­ni­za­tional hassle. Keep up the good work! I will be back for the next course!

Mental balance is also impor­tant, espe­cially in these trying times

And the perfect program for this …

  • Resilience – Opti­mism – the key to greater strength and well-being
  • Mind­ful­ness for stress manage­ment

…was enjoyed by many colleagues, who were all highly moti­vated and inspired by the courses. For the fall season, we are plan­ning to hold a new course focused on “well-being”, says Gina Braun.

Gina and Simone have taken matters into their own hands

The idea of holding the training courses online came from our colleagues Simone Feigel­mann and Gina Braun who took care of getting every­thing orga­nized and running success­fully. So a big thanks for that!

Exer­cising helps you strengthen your immune system and reduce the risk of falling ill. So be sure to take good care of your body. It’s the only place you have to live.

Together we are simply better. This also applies to the courses we offer. Simone is always discov­ering new sports and fitness courses, while I enjoy looking out for addi­tional programs to improve mental well-being. It makes us incred­ibly happy to see just how much our colleagues appre­ciate and embrace all this.

What’s next on the agenda for the fall?

Check the portal for updates on whether and what new courses will be starting in the fall.

It is yet unclear if the Fit4Life courses will look like this picture from 2019’s Body Pump any time soon. However, we hope for the best!

Simone Feigel­mann is confi­dent that they will: “Various options and a varied program are being prepared so that we can kick off again after the summer break and also keep body and mind fit during the dark season.”

All right then. It’s On Your Marks, Get Set, GO!
