When Anna lies on her stomach to display a new exercise in front of the laptop camera, her two-year-old son, Theodor, soon enters the picture. It becomes extra weight when you lie on your back and get on during exercise.
– I have staggered twice at the same time that I had the passport. It’s pretty good proof that you can train when you swing. I have also seen other colleagues who have trained when children have been involved, says Anna Nilsson.
He is responsible for the store environment at Specsavers optical chain and is part of the workplace fitness group. The group received a budget for activities and held a step competition in the fall. Then they began to discuss what else they could do that wouldn’t cost so much money.
Before the pandemic, another colleague in the group had held core sessions within the office, which later turned into video calls on the computer. Anna suggested she could do a more pulse-inspired workout and ran a test round for her colleagues in the fitness group.
– Never had a session before, except with friends and family. So I probably didn’t know what I was getting into. It turned out that it takes a while to create a workout, find great music, and exercises that suit everyone, even those who might not otherwise train.

Difficult to attract men to the workplace
Anna searches Instagram and Youtube for exercises she tries at home. Only she herself is visible in the image. Colleagues usually turn the camera on only after training so Anna can see they’ve been involved and sweat.
– Otherwise, I would have worried that everyone would sit and look at me, eat chips and laugh.
The response from colleagues has been good and he believes that some who were initially hesitant have started to join. However, it has been difficult to bring men into the workplace.
– I have tried to emphasize that you are not visible in the image and that no coordination is needed. But I think you may have noticed that it looks complicated.
The plan to attract more people to participate, hopefully more men as well, is an internal contest where those who have participated in at least 20 sessions at the end of February are in a prize draw.
Anna’s advice for those who want to try something similar is to make sure to prepare the passport so that everyone can participate.
– If it’s advanced exercises, you must have an alternative. If you want to bring in those who have never trained before, maybe you can’t just do pushups and burpees.
