Aerobic exercise is one of the best ways to keep your heart (and your whole body) in shape - so get on out to your local EōS Fitness and get at it, dudes!

This Veteran’s Day, we salute the brave people who have served our country. Today we’d like to honor retired U.S. Army Staff Sergeant Jason Tabansky, a CAF Operation Rebound Athlete who spent over 15 years in the Army as a helicopter crew member and instructor before suffering a spinal cord injury. He won the gold medal in Para Archery with a perfect 10 this summer!
