Chicago, IL (PRWEB) October 31, 2008

HolosFitness. com is helping individuals of all ages, backgrounds, and fitness levels stay healthy during this increasingly stressful economic time. Sweating out financial concerns on a treadmill is an ideal way for many people to quickly and effectively relieve stress and raise endorphin levels. Budget conscious individuals are looking to work out at home to avoid having to pay for gym memberships. Families find that exercises for both children and adults are a great way to spend time together and forget about economic turmoil.

Free fitness websites, such as http://www. HolosFitness. com (http://www. HolosFitness. com), are seeing a dramatic increase in members and catering content to stressed-out individuals. HolosFitness. com includes a "Keep Your Spirits Up, Even When the Markets Got You Down" workout, intended to make light of the souring economy and keep members healthy and in shape at the same time.
HolosFitness. com allows members to track their workouts which can provide more positive encouragement than tracking the declining value of their 401(K)s. Holos member Anton Finelli stated, "Its great to have a free resource like HolosFitness. com where I can find new workouts and share workouts with others. The group support the site provides really encourages me, which is something that is welcome amidst what seems like a never ending stream of bad economic news."

Understanding the current needs of its members, HolosFitness. com is taking it one step further by putting some spending money in one lucky member's pocket. In November, HolosFitness. com will be conducting a video contest where members can upload fitness - or health-related videos to the site for a chance to win $1,000. Holos Founder, Greg Stallkamp, stated, "The Video contest has two objectives in mind: First of all we want our members to share videos of their workout routines and the exercises that have led them to successful results. Second, we want to give away some much-needed cash during the holiday season."
