Research: Exercising at work boosts happiness, productivity

Employees who take breaks in between work to exercise are more productive, happier and suffer less stress than those who do not exercise at all, research has shown.

The results of a study that was carried out by researchers at the University of Bristol and published in the International Journal of Workplace Health Management shows that people who enjoyed a workout before going to work or exercised during lunch breaks were better equipped to handle whatever the day threw at them.
