IRVINE, Calif. -- "Pump Up at the Gas Pump" could be the new catchphrase at gas stations across the country because an interactive workout programming is being broadcast at thousands of gasoline dispensers. The new exercise program was created by PumpTop TV, a major out-of-home digital media network reaching millions of motorists each month, and ExerciseTV, a leading digital fitness network that provides fitness videos, workout plans and exercise tips to support a healthy lifestyle through a cable video on demand channel, DVDs, iPhone app and online at www.ExerciseTV.tv. PumpTop TV will feature 30-second exercise videos at gas stations across the country.
Viewers will also be able to download 10 videos of exercises that can be done at the pump, or, anywhere else, at www.exercisetv.tv/pump. These 10 original videos were created exclusively for PumpTop TV by ExerciseTV, which was founded by Jake Steinfeld of "Body by Jake" fame.
ExerciseTV trainers provide a quick tutorial and then demonstrate in 30 seconds how the exercises are done.
"Pumping gas is five minutes of downtime that could be used to fuel a healthy lifestyle," said ExerciseTV general manager Chris Mansolillo. "So why not get pumped up at the pump with effective 30-second video programs in over 15 categories including abs, yoga, cardio, Pilates, pregnancy workouts and kickboxing?"
Doug Woo, executive vice president of AdtekMedia Inc., the parent company of PumpTop TV, added, "Drivers have about 5 minutes of downtime when filling their tanks with gas. Why not watch PumpTop TV's informative and entertaining programming and exercise at the same time? These new 30-second workout videos are a unique and interactive way to jumpstart the rest of your day. This reflects PumpTop TV's continuing commitment to millions of viewers at the pump to bring fun and freshness to the gas station experience."
