Deadly Issues That No One Ever Told You About Sitting Read more

"Incentive programs are not wellness programs," said Dr. Ronald Goetzel, Director of Emory University's Institute for Health and Productivity Research and President and CEO of The Health Project. "That can be a component, when done smartly, of a comprehensive program, but if that's all your program is going to be, you're going to fail miserably, and people are going to be resentful," he explained. According to Goetzel -- who has studied worksite wellness programs at large corporations such as Dow Chemical and Johnson & Johnson, and is being funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to study best practices in the field -- incentive programs can help get people excited about health and keep them on track, but ultimately people's habits will only change if they are given the resources to change them and if the workplace norms and environments change. 

Without the other pieces to facilitate behavior change -- healthy cafeterias, opportunities to exercise, flexible work hours, supportive leadership and middle managers, and health risk assessments and coaching -- incentive programs will only penalize, not change, those who are least healthy.

    2773310832?profile=originalI've also shared it on my LinkedIn www.linkedin.com/in/saranshakti with over 3500 and growing contacts. It'll be shared on several groups and pages including Facebook, Google+, LinkedIn and others. Perhaps, I'll learn better like this given your question. I've had around 2000 views of my post in a day and several groups have approved it and several people have liked it.

  • Amazing! During the day I wrote to a very senior person that soon I'll have one week voucher of Fitness First CP for the person because he can possibly have very nice experiences there, however, I would be going to Gold's Gym nearby. Some hours later, I was deciding on which Physiotherapist to go to based on the information online and the one who I went to is very nice! He seemed to treat my shoulder very well. Moreover, he goes to Gold's Gym!!!

    He mentioned that he has done several things early during his career already and that he seems very knowledgeable and also very good at his work. He has a nice clinic unlike the one I went to few days ago where the doctor's child was walking barefoot and which had made me concerned about hygiene there and so I had left.

    He had BackJoy there and when I had asked about it, he had let me sit on it and had also explained to me about it. When I had said that it's nice and that now I don't want to sit on the chair without it, he had said that he doesn't want people to become an addict to it but to use it until they really fix their sitting posture and then they can also give it to others.

    I shared with about the Health and Fitness India site http://www.healthfitnessindia.com and about marketing and content writing that I think that it's of value to share experiences which can help people learn. I've 9 more sessions with him around 11 AM daily. He mentioned that that's a convenient time for him and sure I would respect him like seems to do to his work and his clients. I, family and relatives have had negative experiences with doctors and so it's nice to have this physiotherapist. Best!

  • Slide show: Prevent back pain with good posture

    Good standing posture

    When standing, keep these tips in mind:

    • Keep your shoulders back and relaxed.
    • Pull in your abdomen.
    • Keep your feet about hip distance apart.
    • Balance your weight evenly on both feet.
    • Let your hands hang naturally at your sides.

    Try not to tilt your head forward, backward or sideways, and make sure your knees are relaxed — not locked.

    Good sitting posture

    When seated, keep these tips in mind:

    • Choose a chair that allows you to rest both feet flat on the floor while keeping your knees level with your hips. If necessary, prop up your feet with a footstool or other support.
    • Sit back in your chair. If the chair doesn't support your lower back's curve, place a rolled towel or small pillow behind your lower back.
    • Stretch the top of your head toward the ceiling, and tuck your chin in slightly.
    • Keep your upper back and neck comfortably straight.
    • Keep your shoulders relaxed — not elevated, rounded or pulled backward.

  • Shift work: Improving daytime sleep

    I just started working the night shift, and I'm having trouble sleeping during the day. Do you have any sleep tips for shift workers?

    Answer from Timothy Morgenthaler, M.D.

    Humans are naturally wired to be awake during the day and to sleep at night. Good daytime sleep is possible, though, if shift work is a necessary part of your work life.
