Without a variable workout, exercise quickly becomes nothing more than a Sisyphean routine of lifting boulders, running up hills, and running away from sudden boulder avalanches. Fend off a flattening with today's Groupon to CrossFit Oyster Point in Newport News. Choose between the following options:
- For $19, you get six drop-in boot-camp classes (a $90 value).

Housed in a 3,000-square-foot gym, CrossFit Oyster Point facilitates fitness with an intensive, total-body exercise style, attentive trainers, and ample space for each exerciser to perform safely. CrossFit boot camp folds in the sport's core methodologies while staying true to the high-energy style of traditional boot camps. Like a dance-a-thon held in an active volcano, coaches run participants through ever-changing routines that torch calories with nonstop movement during the course of one hour. Pulling from body-weight-resistance exercises, cardio moves such as running and jumping, and barbell training, trainers test clients of all fitness levels. Members and visitors alike can benefit from the camp's inclusive atmosphere and goal of ameliorating overall health. CrossFit boot-camp classes are usually less than 40 minutes long, and are scheduled Monday, Wednesday, and Friday at 6:30 a.m., Tuesdays and Thursdays at 1 p.m. and 7 p.m., and Saturdays at 9 a.m.
An unlimited monthly membership grants entry to all of the gym's regularly scheduled classes, with Essentials sessions for first-time CrossFitters and group classes for veteran gym clients. The gym's philosophy hones in on practical movements that increase functionality in every day life, eschewing extraneous bells and whistles like bicep curls and bus-stop-bench presses. Group classes are scheduled throughout the day every weekday and at 9 a.m. on Saturdays; beginners-only Essentials classes take place on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays at 10 a.m. and 7 p.m.

The Groupon Guide to: Safeguarding Your Computer
It's a world wild web out there, full of viruses, trojan horses, and cyber mummies. Consult this guide to keeping your computer squeaky clean:
A thumbprint on your monitor might be on the inside of the screen—use a screwdriver to get it out.
There are only three safe websites: robinwilliams.net, robinwilliams.org, and will.i.am.
Keep your computer "clean" by removing all the swears from your Excel documents and deleting any pictures of people kissing.
Look out for Trons!
Draw a picture of a scarecrow in MS Paint and set it as your background. It won't stop viruses, but it will kill filthy birds near your computer.
Crumbs between keys can become sustenance for viruses to breed. Replace your keyboard every three hours.
Cell phones are tiny computers that will fit in your dishwasher. You're welcome.
