Fitness firmly on their minds

Shannon Chamber is pulling out all the stops to ensure its members and their business colleagues face into the autumn with health and fitness firmly ensconced in their minds.

As part of Chamber Week 2015, which takes place from September 14 – 18, the Chamber has invited fitness expert, radio and TV broadcaster, author and columnist, Karl Henry, to make a presentation at Shannon Airport on Thursday, September 17.

The event, which is sponsored by Shannon Airport and GECAS, commences at 6pm in the Transit Lounge at the airport.

Encouraging the business community to attend this event, Shannon Chamber’schief executive Helen Downes said, “A lot of people dread the onset of autumn and its association with long, dark nights, and a fear of becoming a couch potato through lack of exercise. Karl Henry is one Ireland’s most recognised and leading personal trainers.  We felt he would be the ideal person to speak to our members and a general business audience plus he would motivate us all to think fit.

“In his two-hour presentation, Karl will share his expert advice on
achieving health, fitness and weight management goals.  He will also give key exercise and nutrition guidelines to those seeking to change their body, health, energy, stress levels and overall well-being. Covering exercise techniques, fitness tests, understanding the benefits of low GI foods and the importance of drinking water and more, Karl will show how simple changes can transform our day, bodies and life. It promises to be a very informative and beneficial evening.”
