Since 2007 we have been building technology for a community we respect and admire. We have lots to be grateful for. What started off as a casual conversation in our small garage gym has quickly transformed into a bootstrapped startup now used by thousands of people every day. We want to take this opportunity to say “thanks”. Thanks for the support. Thanks for believing in us (especially the early adopters). Thanks for being so awesome. The same way you strive to set new personal records in the gym every day is the same way we promise to keep striving for PRs in the office (some big features coming out soon). And, of course, Happy Cheat Meals!
Oh, and for those looking for workout ideas on the big day, below is a list of the most often performed workouts over the years, by our users, on Thanksgiving. Have fun.
