Busy Students and Professionals Use Daily Fitness Challenges to Navigate Finals and Holiday Season

Online, December 11, 2013 (Newswire.com) - 12 days of Christmas cues instant nostalgia and pictures of sugar plums… which is exactly why this magical time of the year can also be the most challenging for anyone trying to get or stay in shape!

For college students, the weeks preceding finals wreak havoc on healthy lifestyles. Long nights of studying leave no time for normal routines, so workouts and healthy meals give way to holiday sweets and skipped gym time.

"During finals, even students that are pretty dedicated to their fitness regimens have a hard time fitting it in when they arguably need it the most," says Karen Jashinsky, founder of O2 MAX, a Los Angeles based Fitness company that creates personalized lifestyle solutions for students and busy people.

Luckily, O2 MAX knows the challenges of busy students and professionals well, and designs all of their programs and products accordingly. They have become widely recognized around the LA area and beyond for innovative methods of engaging people in healthy, simple lifestyle changes.

On December 9th, O2 MAX kicked off its #12DaysofFitness campaign, to help students find ways to maintain fitness goals amidst finals stress and holiday temptation. The same can be said of everyone struggling through the holiday season!

O2 MAX #iamfit coaches are active college students who demonstrate the ease of working cumulative exercise in over the course of the day in short time investments. Challenge participants get a prize for their FREE entry at any point in the 12-day challenge, and a chance at MAXbox samplers for participating, as well as the GRAND PRIZE of a Dorm Fit Kit!

To further its mission of revolutionizing the way busy people and students experience fitness, O2 MAX recently teamed up with Cody. "Cody" provides a dead simple way for coaches to publish training plans with video, photo, and text instruction. Coaches can decide to list their plans for free or, if they want to use Cody to earn income, they can list a paid plan. Once published, the plans are available on the FREE Cody iPhone App as well as the website. O2 MAX launched their #12DaysofFitness training plan on Cody to give participants a place to log their daily workouts and to interact with a community of like-minded, ambitious self-starters!

Between survival kits, daily workout challenges, and constant advice, encouragement and interaction, O2 MAX is aggressively seeking to help busy people with individual goals and struggles, and to promote wellness in a life-changing way by redefining the possibilities of fitness.
