While human fitness originated by running long distances to avoid being eaten, it now dictates that we run in place to avoid eating. Survive with the fittest thanks to today's Groupon: for $35, you get a 10-punch pass to the Coors Fitness Center on the University of Denver campus (an $80 value).
The Coors Fitness Center induces sweating in a spacious facility buzzing with collegiate energy. Home to Denver's only Olympic-size pool, the 14,500-square-foot gym also wraps its walls around a full-size basketball court, racquetball and squash courts, and more than 40 group fitness classes each week. The center's advanced weight and cardio equipment are replaced on an annual basis or every time a physics major successfully splits an atom.
Visitors can crash a Willpower and Grace class, which fuses together various exercises that teach muscles to temporarily ignore discomfort and push the body to new heights of fitness achievement. Or, check off both cardio and strength training in the specially designated circuit-training zone. Get-fitters can challenge treadmills to a race, climb stair steppers, shake hips, and burn calories in the Bollywood dance class or lift dumbbells to wake up slumbering deltoids in the weight room. Complimentary towel service eases wear and tear on gym bags, and free campus parking relieves drivers of the need to carry their cars into the gym with them.
