MostFit to Hold 2017 ‘Pushups for Puppies’ Fitness Fundraiser for Southern California Animal Rescue Organization

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- MostFit Founder and Owner, Andrew Gavigan, will hold the 6th annual "Pushups for Puppies" workout event to benefit L.A.-based animal rescue organization, Shelter Transport Animal Rescue Team ("START"; http://startrescue.org/). The event will take place on Saturday, Sept. 9, 2017 at The Balboa Sports Center in Encino (see Event details below).

All of the proceeds - one hundred percent - from "Pushups for Puppies" will benefit START to support the rescue and transport of dogs from high euthanasia shelters in Southern California to safe havens in the Pacific Northwest, where they are re-homed.

This year, MostFit will partner with our friends Marc, Younjee and The RKR Charitable Fund ("RKR") to fund an entire transport of animals on START's recently renovated transport vehicle, affectionately nicknamed The Beast. The Beast can transport approximately 90-100 animals at a time and the cost to save the life of each animal is approximately $65.00. RKR has agreed to match all donations made to START in connection with Pushups for Puppies up to $6,000.

"We held our first 'Pushups for Puppies' fitness fundraiser in 2012 with the goal of raising enough money to provide safe-haven for a handful of at-risk dogs," said Andrew Gavigan of MostFit. "This year, together with RKR Charitable, we have already received a commitment to fund an entire START transport in September and we are hoping to raise as much additional money as possible to support the many great things that our friends at START are doing - their efforts truly give these wonderful animals 'a new lease on life.'"

The event consists of a one-hour, moderate and family-friendly workout hosted by some of L.A.'s leading trainers and yoga instructors. Each year Pushups for Puppies gets bigger and raises more money for START - it's a fun workout and great time to support a worthy cause.

LOS ANGELES, Calif. /ScoopCloud/ -- On March 9 and 10, MostFit will join more than 350 fitness equipment and technology exhibitors from around the world to network and meet with thousands of health club operators at the IHRSA Annual International Trade Show and Convention in Los Angeles.

MOSTFIT PRODUCTS INCLUDE:

The MostFit Core Hammer is a first of its kind, finally making sledgehammer workouts possible without the tire. The Core Hammer is designed just like a sledgehammer, but the head is round and composed of solid urethane, providing the right amount of rebound so the user can establish a rhythm that exactly mimics traditional sledgehammer swings. This means that sledgehammer workouts can now be done anywhere...in a park, gym, Crossfit box or at home and multiple users can workout together in small spaces with the Core Hammer, which fits in nicely with MostFit's mantra of helping the user be the "Most Fit" they can be - anywhere, any time.

The MostFit SYN Rings allow the user to suspend weight plates or kettlebells from an Olympic weightlifting bar creating instability; forcing the user to engage more core and stability muscles and increase overall strength. The rings allow the weight plates to move in all directions, including forward, back, side-to-side, up-and-down and in circular motions. Portable and easy to store, the SYN Rings can go with you anywhere, fit in a drawer or small spot on the functional training zone floor.
