Workstyle Freestyle 032 - 'World 365'

Oh! Hello Hoxbies! Welcome to Workstyle Freestyle with me, Alex Hirst. And with me, Lizzie Penny! Today I'm doing lunges! Because we are talking about our World 365 initiative, which is essentially our efforts as a Hoxby community to exercise our way around the world in 365 days. It's part of our mental health cause because we know that exercise is linked to improved mental health, for example 150 minutes of exercise each week leads to a 31% reduced chance of depression, according to the NHS. It is genuinely better for your mental health. And it's well worth the embarrassment of wearing tight-fitting clothing like this particularly on video... It also... Ooooh... It is also great for productivity, it is said to increase productivity by 21%, apparently, according to Bristol University. And also motivation, by 41%. So it's good for business as well as being good for mental health. I can vouch for that. I swim three times a week without fail. How are we getting along, Alex? Well at the half-way stage through the year, so the end of June, we were almost exactly half way around the world, so we are currently tracking bang on schedule. But there are some tricky weeks and months ahead in the Northern Hemisphere so we will see how the guys get on. If you would like to follow how we are doing, please check out hoxby.com/world365 or follow us at #HoxbyWorld365. Thanks very much for tuning in. We've been Workstyle Freestyle, we'll see you next time. Bye!
