Watch Sharron Davies to get fit at your desk with the Times and Timesonline!

February 27, 2008

If you want to get fitter without leaving your desk, this is your big opportunity – visit the TimesONLINE website from 3rd March and watch Sharron Davies performing a selection of her ‘at-your-desk’ exercises created in association with Leitz.

Leitz is the leading European brand of premium quality lever arch file, folders and desktop products, and they have linked up with The Times newspaper to promote their Leitz Office Games Campaign on the TimesONLINE web site.







Do you spend a lot of time sitting at your desk? Would you like to do more exercise but work and home commitments make it impossible to find the time? We know that posture related health problems are growing due to the less mobile nature of many jobs and in 2006 nearly half a million people in the UK suffered from some form of RSI*.



That’s why Leitz, the high performance brand of filing and desk top accessories, has launched the Leitz Office Games campaign spearheaded by Sharron Davies to improve your fitness and well-being in the office and at your desk. Sharron has produced a comprehensive series of ‘at-your-desk’ toning exercises, which will be emailed to your desktop monthly throughout 2008. These simple exercises can be performed at and around your desk. They only take a few minutes a day to do but have been designed to create a greater feeling of personal achievement, satisfaction and empowerment.

Having realised the benefits of this campaign in helping office workers who spend a lot of time sitting at their desks to become fitter and more productive, The Times has filmed Sharron Davies performing a selection of the Leitz desk toning exercises.

All you have to do is log on to www.timesonline.co.uk/creme any day next week – 3rd-7th March where you will see video clips of Sharron doing different Leitz ‘at-your-desk’ exercises every day. Simply go on to www.leitz.com/office games to sign up to receive these monthly exercises all through the year, so that you can do them yourselves either at or by your desk. You can also take the Leitz product fitness test, enter the prize draw to win two tickets to Beijing, home of the 2008 Olympics, browse through the Leitz product portfolio and request samples. And if you miss seeing Sharron performing next week, don’t forget you can still go on to the www.leitz.com/office games web site and register to receive her monthly exercises..
