Goforit Fitness

Peference list $-$ Ap

$-$table of $($ontina$)$

The Goforit Fitness is one of Canada's largest fitness organizations. It hopes that Ganadians can live a healthy, active life $-$ and feel better about themselves. It has gyms in every major Canadian city. Its facilities are large and focus on fitness for the entire family.

The $\frac{C}{O}O$ for The Goodlife is responsible for making certain that all facilities are running smoothly, deciding on the fitness programs offered, and expanding the locations. There are currently $275$ locations across Canada. The Waterloo Goforit is becoming a very popular location. The $\frac{C}{O}O$ has two ideas for overcoming this problem. One is to expand the currently location into the recently vacated business supply store attached to the club. This expansion would include a pool and larger fitness rooms. Another idea is to build a new facility in the new development in an expanding neighbourhood. This would be the riskier option because of the additional expense.
