To help employees enrich their leisure cultural life and enhance their physical fitness, the Shenma Shares Union organized a fitness competition for employees from January 7 to 8. This competition... Continuing the “Muscle Gain and Fat Loss” health management initiative, two engaging and challenging activities—plank holds and horse stance exercises—are featured.

Staff from all departments and offices of Shenma Shares enthusiastically signed up and actively participated in the competition. Zhu Baoxia, chairperson of the Shenma Shares union, came to the scene to cheer on and encourage the contestants.

During the competition, the employees gave their all, striving to ensure that every movement was standard, precise, and aesthetically pleasing. The judges strictly adhered to the rules in timing and scoring, promptly correcting any non-compliant movements to guarantee that the entire process was fair and impartial. Cheers, encouragement, and exclamations of admiration rose one after another, creating a lively yet harmonious atmosphere at the scene.

In the "plank" competition, a female contestant kept her back straight, supporting her body steadily on her elbows and tiptoes, maintaining perfect form throughout the entire duration. 3 points, 5 points, 8 points... As time went on, the pressure and soreness in her body multiplied accordingly. At first, her legs began to tremble slightly, and her arm muscles subtly bulged from overexertion—but she continued to strive relentlessly to keep her body stable, pushing herself to her absolute limit. “Breaking the 10-minute mark!” “That’s amazing!” Her spirit of unyielding perseverance in the face of immense pressure and her relentless pursuit of pushing boundaries earned everyone’s applause and cheers.

The plank exercise strengthens the core muscles and helps tone the entire body; the horse stance effectively builds lower-body strength and alleviates issues such as leg weakness and mental fatigue caused by prolonged sitting. Both exercises are examples of static resistance training that require neither specialized equipment nor a dedicated training space. Employees can take advantage of spare moments at home or in the office to engage in quick, effective workouts that help them stay strong and healthy. The trade union of Shenma Shares has carefully prepared for the competition by meticulously selecting demonstration videos of standard movements. Through clear, step-by-step breakdowns of the exercises and detailed explanations of key points, the union provides employees with professional pre-competition training guidance.

Next, the trade union of Shenma Shares will continue to pay close attention to the practical needs of employees, wholeheartedly promoting more positive and uplifting recreational activities and efficient, convenient fitness methods for them. We will keep strengthening employees’ physical health and enriching their lives, thereby providing strong talent support for the company’s healthy development through effective measures.
