Physical Activity

What Does Physical Activity mean to us? Physical activity is a state of health and well-being and, more specifically, the ability to perform aspects of daily activities. Physical activity is generally achieved through proper nutrition, moderate-vigorous physical exercise, and sufficient rest along with a formal recovery plan. Physical activity is important to us, because keeping our workforce physically active helps improve overall health and wellbeing.

At WMCHealth, we believe that there is nothing more important than the health of our employees and their families. Now, more than ever, it’s critical to prioritize your own wellbeing – both physical and mental. To demonstrate our commitment to supporting our employees with their wellbeing – I am thrilled to announce our partnership with Wellhub, our new wellbeing benefit!

What is Wellhub?

Wellhub is a wellbeing platform that offers you resources to support your mind, body, and mood. Through WMCHealth, employees are able to access any of the Wellhub plans, at a discounted rate!

Wellhub offers a variety of plan options, designed to fit every wellness journey. Flexible plans are a month-to-month membership, with no initiation or cancelation fees, ever! Each tier builds upon the network access, so you can choose the plan that works best for you and your budget. You are even able to browse the gyms/studios network in your area through the Wellhub app prior to purchasing a plan! Take a look at what’s included with Wellhub memberships:

  • Gym Network: Wellhub members can visit a different gym (or the same one) once every single day! Access to over 18,000 fitness facilities nationwide at discounted prices with partners such as Lifetime, Gold’s Gym, SoulCycle, F45, Barry’s and more.

  • Digital App Network: Take your wellness on-the-go with a selection of over 50 wellness app partners such as Strava, Meditopia, MyFitnessPal, Apple Fitness+, Sleep Cycle, and more. Wellhub offers the premium versions of each app at no additional cost to your Wellhub membership, and members have unlimited access to the digital app partners within their Wellhub plan!

  • Trainiac by Wellhub: Book private training or nutrition sessions (included in membership for the Bronze plan and above) for a routine tailored to your goals. No more guessing what workouts to do or recipes to follow. Let an expert be your guide!

  • Live Streamed Classes: If privacy in your home is your comfort zone, give Wellhub’s live streamed classes a try! There are a variety of workouts to try, including yoga, strength training, HIIT, Pilates, dancing and more, all available directly through the Wellhub app.

 

Not ready to fully commit? Wellhub offers an introductory option called the Digital Plan.

  • This plan is available at no cost to you and gives you access to the premium versions of 10 wellbeing apps that support physical fitness, nutrition, mindfulness, sleep, and financial planning.

  • This is a great way to test the “Wellhub waters” and to explore their digital network.

 

How do I explore the Wellhub platform or sign up for a membership?

Mental and Emotional Well-Being

For example, spending time performing activities like mindfulness or meditation - can help you live in the moment and let go of everyday stresses, and focus only on what’s going on now.

Blood Drives ▼

Give the Gift of Life. Donate Blood and Be the Hero Someone is Waiting For!

Donating blood is a selfless act with a profound impact on health, saving lives in surgeries, trauma, and cancer treatments. It plays a crucial role in emergencies, supports those with chronic conditions or blood disorders, aids cancer patients, and ensures a stable supply for surgeries. Beyond its health benefits, blood donation fosters community support, addresses the short shelf life of blood, and reflects volunteerism and civic duty, making it a tangible way for individuals to positively influence their community’s well-being.
