At Astrafox, we support both professional and athletic development
We have our own rowing team and train regularly at the office, motivating one another and taking part in challenges. Our small office gym proved particularly useful during the pandemic, giving us the opportunity to train regularly on professional equipment while following all safety measures.
How did #ASFX Squad begin?
In 2019, after moving offices, we gained space for an employee fitness room. A rowing machine took center stage. At first, it was simply a pleasant alternative to a coffee break, but interest grew so quickly that we had to create a separate booking calendar. In the second half of the year, we entered the Virtual Team Challenge 2019 as a team and rowed nearly 1,000 km in one month. Rowing became the top conversation topic in the office kitchen.
Challenges
We row on Concept2 equipment and regularly take part in the manufacturer’s challenges as #ASFX Squad. The challenges motivate us to stay active. Team results are published on the Concept2 website, and we work hard to place as high as possible in the rankings. We compete with other teams and challenge one another to see who can row the greatest distance.
