A good workout regimen provides the courage needed to march back into the office, take the clown nose off, and demand a smaller, funnier car. Fill oversized shoes with self-confidence with today's Groupon: for $59, you get a one-month membership (a $109 value, plus a waived $250 initiation fee) and three one-hour personal-training sessions (a $330 value) at Form Fitness in Palo Alto

The spacious brand-new Form Fitness facility hastens heart rates on two floors with state-of-the-art weight and cardio equipment, personal trainers, and group fitness classes. Experienced trainers facilitate decreases in corporal surface area by adapting personalized workout plans to suit individual needs, and the packed class schedule caters to busy schedules and amateur crime-fighting agendas. Tackle the barre in Form Flow, which mixes conditioning with ballet training to increase core strength and flexibility, or pedal to the beat during Hip-Hop Cycle.

A one-month membership offers exercisers access to an encouraging environment that fosters the confidence necessary to shed mass, improve bodily aerodynamics, and produce future zorbing champions. Form Fitness memberships also offer childcare services for $7 an hour, free three-hour parking in an adjacent eight-story parking garage, and locker rooms with private showers and complimentary towel service to help unprofessional body builders relax after boosting their body's muscle-farm yields.
