Over the years I've developed the health, fitness and wellbeing index.

Here it is: a good score is a low score.

	30.	Are you happy with your financial status. (If no score high)	0	1	2	3	4	5	6	7	8	9	10

So what do these graphs tell you.

The lower the score the better. The score of a fit and healthy person is less than 20. Anything under 40 is not bad. Once anyone gets a score over 80 there's a fair chance they're not fit and/or they're not happy. The head is definitely connected to the body.

In this table the results of over 950 people have been collated. Any score of 5 or more was rated as a symptom, issue or concern.

So how does it work?

I can provide you with a report like this after any seminar presentation.

Or I can come and sit in your office and take people through the survey one at a time. It's confidential, participants receive some counselling along the way. If you want the blood pressure, glucose and cholesterol done at the same time I'm happy to oblige. That's easy. If you want me to measure aerobic fitness, strength and flexibility, that's easy too. You'll get a nice, rounded, holistic view of your staff's health if you do that.

You get a report, no names, just the graphs and the table. If things are good then it's time for the head patting and a bag of lollies. If the results are not good then you can set about making them better. This includes doing things for groups and individuals.
