But for us, health is movement!<\/span><br \/>\n<!--more--> <span data-contrast=\"none\">At Olympe, we&#8217;ve always believed in the importance of physical activity, and its benefits for both body and soul. That&#8217;s why we&#8217;ve approached and convinced so many companies to integrate physical activity into their workplaces, and the positive results have been felt instantly. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335551550\":6,\"335551620\":6,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":240,\"469777462\":[916,1832,2748,3664,4580,5496,6412,7328,8244,9160,10076,10992,11908,12824,13740,14656],\"469777927\":[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],\"469777928\":[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]}\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">In fact, at Olympe, physical activity has been our credo for the past 40 years. A vocation in itself! As a result, after 4 decades, we have established 200 physical activity centers in private and public organizations across Quebec. And it continues. Over the past year, we&#8217;ve added a mental health prevention offer that&#8217;s snowballed. The idea is to intervene upstream, in particular by training managers. <\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{\"201341983\":0,\"335551550\":6,\"335551620\":6,\"335559739\":0,\"335559740\":240,\"469777462\":[916,1832,2748,3664,4580,5496,6412,7328,8244,9160,10076,10992,11908,12824,13740,14656],\"469777927\":[0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,0],\"469777928\":[1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1]}\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span data-contrast=\"none\">Since the very beginning, our approach has remained unchanged. You don&#8217;t need to run a marathon to feel the benefits of sport. And as well as maintaining physical health, the psychological aspect is just as important. Fortunately, organizations are getting the message. And it&#8217;s easy to see why, when you read the conclusions of recent studies on the impact of physical activity on mental health.
