Thanks to all who attended our Halloween party on Friday!  Who would have thought two guys would wear satchels?!?

 Now take that candy into the office to “share” with your colleagues.  Because then you won’t eat it all.

Solo vs Group Fitness

Do you prefer solo or team sports?  Studies suggest that group workouts may be the way to go.  CF is unique in providing the best of both worlds: everyone is accountable to the team, but it’s also very much on the individual to push herself / himself to get the most out of every workout.  The individual effort and group camaraderie combine to provide the best of both worlds!

You can read more about group vs solo fitness here, here and here.  Enjoy!
