Peerfit: Workouts, Your Way.

The benefits of health, wellness, and regular exercise, are constantly the focus of recent news, articles, and daily life. However, for many, life can get in the way of developing a regular fitness routine. Luckily, there’s a new startup that aims to resolve this too common dilemma. Peerfit offers different levels of membership, beginning with creating an account. After the account is created, clients have the ability to purchase credits, which can then be used to purchase classes at local fitness studios. “Peerfit is a community that helps people discover the best fitness classes and motivates them to attend and share. For anyone who seeks freedom from the typical workout routine, Peerfit is the easy, flexible way to customize a premium fitness experience.” This innovative startup concept also allows for variety while also providing motivation to consistently get moving.

In addition to individual memberships, Peerfit offers corporate memberships. Recently, more employers have started to offer company sponsored memberships or reimbursements for spending on gyms or group classes. This is beneficial to companies for several reasons. First, it encourages activity and the overall well being of employees, saves money due to the fact that this service is “pay as you go,” and lastly, it serves as a method of socialization and team building for coworkers. In examining all of the benefits, it is safe to assume that involvement in an activity such as Peerfit is an obvious morale booster and activity in which coworkers can socialize, set, and meet goals. Additionally, this creates a more positive and engaged organizational culture.
