Why Enliven?

Employee Wellbeing Spotlight

Employee spotlight with Ren Oslica, senior engineer, Integrity

Management, Pipeline Safety, in Oklahoma City

Have you always been active?

Yes, my whole life...sports, mountain

biking, trail running, I enjoy all that. I ran

cross country in high school as well.

How do you find time to fit exercise

into your schedule now?

We go to a CrossFit gym at 5:30 a.m.

every day. It’s all my wife Nicole, though.

She’s an early morning person. I hate

mornings. Some days it’s still hard for me

to get out of bed, but it’s just become

something I enjoy. My wife works late a

lot, so I see it as time that I get to spend

with her.

How did you get into CrossFit?

I started at CrossFit Ruston in college but was inconsistent. That changed less than a year after I

moved to Oklahoma City in 2015. I didn’t know many people in town and was coaxed into going

back to a CrossFit gym by Nicole (we were dating at the time). She let me know her friends in Yukon

owned CrossFit Complete West, so we just started going.

What do you like most about CrossFit?

The flexibility of the programming. I am not doing the same exercise day in and day out. Sometimes

I like the Olympic lifting aspect of it because it’s very technical, and I enjoy that sort of thing. Another

advantage is you don’t have to worry about planning your workout because they’re all laid out for

you. However, it is a good idea to think about your approach to the workout. Every day the coach

has a workout of the day written out and will help scale to your level of fitness. What really makes it

great is the community and getting a good laugh in at 5:30 a.m.

Ren and his wife Nicole deadlift in their first CrossFit competition together,

the 2016 Free For All Throw Down in Oklahoma City.

Ren and a fellow competitor perform synchronized

pull-ups at the 2017 Bricktown Throw Down CrossFit

competition in Oklahoma City.

What are your go-to quick, healthy snacks or meals?

For lunches I normally have some form of chicken/beef/pork with rice and spinach. I don’t do a lot of

snacking mostly because I love chips and salsa, and I can’t really hold back. So, I find that if I just

don’t buy chips, that solves a lot of my problems. Meal tips that have worked best for us are just

buying and preparing food that comes from the outer edges of the grocery store, most likely anything

toward the center has some sort of added sugar or refined carb. My favorite right now is brisket. It

takes a while to cook, but there is a lot of meat and it lasts a long time. It also makes amazing

lunches for the rest of the week!

Any wellness goals you’ve set for

yourself?

Every year CrossFit hosts the CrossFit

Open. It’s open to anybody, and it lasts five

weeks. There are over 400,000 people

involved in the competition worldwide. You

just do it at your own gym, and you log

your score in the app and it ranks you

worldwide. My goal in this, every year, is to

beat my uncle who lives in Fayetteville,

Arkansas.

What advice would you give others to

start a routine?

Living a healthier lifestyle can be incredibly

fun and rewarding, although it is not easy.

The community of the gym makes it much

easier and helps hold you accountable.

There are a lot of beginners at our gym and

people who have never exercised in their

entire life who join, learn some of the

movements, get stronger and, most

importantly, become much healthier. The

most important thing is to just walk through

the doors and give it a try.

can be incredibly fun and

rewarding, although it is

not easy.”

Physical Activity Focus

Boost your heart rate throughout the day

In addition to a regular exercise routine, it’s important to remain active during the day. A sedentary

lifestyle is dangerous for your wellbeing, and even workout warriors are at risk if they only get up to

go to the gym. Fortunately, it’s easy to add active minutes to your day with a few simple changes.

• Park toward the back of parking lots to get in extra steps.

• Take the stairs, not the elevator.

• Walk during breaks instead of sitting in a breakroom or cafeteria.

• Skip drive-through windows, even at the bank or pharmacy. Park and walk in for the extra

steps.

• Find ways to be active as a family and add quality time to the mix as well.

• Do small exercises — jumping jacks, push-ups, crunches — during commercial breaks of

your favorite shows.

• Track your steps to ensure you stay active, even when you’re busy or distracted.

Start small and ramp it up. Unrealistic goals are demotivating, so set small, achievable goals that

lead up to a single big one! A good initial goal is a small increase in daily activity minutes or step

count. Continue to reach goals and set new ones until you can hit 10,000 steps on a daily basis or

150 active minutes each week. You can get started by joining the Get in the Game Challenge,

kicking off Sept. 10. To learn more and sign up, visit EnlivenWellbeing.com. Please consult

your physician before beginning any new exercise program.

The Benefits of Preventive Care + Preventive Care Incentive Reminder

Tackle heart disease with an annual preventive exam

Heart disease — closely linked with obesity — is already the biggest health problem in the U.S., and

the crisis is only getting worse. Here are some sobering statistics for you:

• Each year, about 610,000 Americans die of heart disease. That’s approximately 25 percent

of all deaths in the U.S.

• More than 700,000 Americans have a heart attack each year.

• Approximately 40 percent of Americans are considered overweight or obese.

That’s scary news. But there’s good news, too. With heart disease, your choices matter, and you

make an impact! Even if your current lifestyle and diet are hard on your heart, you can make a

number of changes to reduce your risk.

But how do you know if you’re already at risk? Each of the following increases your risk of

developing heart disease:

Trait Reason Approximate Target Number

A large, round

waistline

Excess fat around the stomach is a bigger

predictor of coronary heart disease than

excess fat stored in other parts of the body.

While body mass index (BMI)

doesn’t target your waistline alone,

it’s still a helpful statistic. A BMI

between 25 and 29.9 is considered

overweight. A BMI of 30 or higher is

considered obese.

High

triglyceride

levels

Your body converts calories it can’t

immediately use into triglycerides, which are

a type of fat found in the blood. High levels

also lead to coronary heart disease.

Triglycerides have a normal range of

less than 150 milligrams per deciliter

(mg/dL).

Low HDL

cholesterol

levels

High-density lipoprotein (HDL) is known as

the "good" cholesterol because it helps

remove other forms of cholesterol from your

bloodstream. Higher levels of HDL

cholesterol are associated with a lower risk

of heart disease.

HDL cholesterol level should be at

least 40 mg/dL, with 60 mg/dL

considered preventive against heart

disease.

High blood

pressure

Blood pressure is a measure of the force of

your blood pushing against the walls of your

arteries as your heart pumps. High blood

pressure can be a sign of tension or

abnormal stress, and if it stays high over

time, it can damage your heart.

A healthy blood pressure is a top

number (systolic) below 120 mm Hg

and a bottom number (diastolic)

below 80 mm Hg.

Family history If your family has a history of heart disease, it is important to take extra precaution.

Lack of

exercise

It is important to be physically active at least 150 minutes per week.

Stress Excess stress causes your body to release adrenaline, which temporarily raises your

blood pressure and speeds up your heart rate. In addition, many people’s response

to stress — poor diet, alcohol consumption and/or lack of sleep, for example — also

contribute to poor health that leads to heart disease.

You can know all these numbers, and where you stand against heart disease, by visiting your doctor

for your annual preventive exam. This annual preventive exam is covered at 100 percent in-network

for those enrolled in an Enable medical plan. To find an in-network doctor where you live, log in to

bcbsok.com and click on "Find a Doctor or Hospital." Then select your state from the drop-down

menu and click the BlueChoice PPO Network.

But wait, there’s more! If you or your spouse are covered under Enable’s benefits plan and complete

an annual preventive exam between Oct. 1, 2017, and Sept. 30, 2018, you’ll earn a $600 wellbeing

incentive in 2019 and get a free Enliven T-shirt. Visit Enlivenwellbeing.com or call the HR Service

Center at 844-OUR-HR4U (Option 7) for more details.
