*By Christian Smith* Streaming has taken the fitness industry by storm ー and FightCamp is among the latest services to bring the energy of an exercise class to users' living rooms. FightCamp is a new fitness company that streams boxing classes from top instructors direct to consumers. The classes can be tailored to the needs of boxers at all levels of expertise ー from newbies to punching pros said co-founder Tommy Duquette. "For people coming in with zero experience, we have workouts that will walk them through the technique and teach them how to box," Duquette told Cheddar. The FightCamp kit retails for $995, which includes a punching bag, gloves, hand wraps, and an exercise mat. The monthly class subscription costs $39 per month. FightCamp currently offers over 200 workouts in its library and adds about four new workouts per week. With six trainers, Duquette said FightCamp is able to focus its programming and ensure that every workout maintains a high level of quality. "Because we're not opening gyms all across the country, it really allows us to centralize that talent and get the best talent and bring it directly into the home," Duquette said.

Starbucks’ Change Flushes Out a Debate Over Public Restroom Access
Starbucks’ decision to restrict its restrooms to paying customers has flushed out a wider problem: a patchwork of restroom use policies that varies by state and city. Starbucks announced last week a new code of conduct that says people need to make a purchase if they want to hang out or use the restroom. The coffee chain's policy change for bathroom privileges has left Americans confused and divided over who gets to go and when. The American Restroom Association, a public toilet advocacy group, was among the critics. Rules about restroom access in restaurants vary by state, city and county. The National Retail Federation says private businesses have a right to limit restroom use.
Trump Highlights Partnership Investing $500 Billion in AI
President Donald Trump is talking up a joint venture investing up to $500 billion for infrastructure tied to artificial intelligence by a new partnership formed by OpenAI, Oracle and SoftBank. The new entity, Stargate, will start building out data centers and the electricity generation needed for the further development of the fast-evolving AI in Texas, according to the White House. The initial investment is expected to be $100 billion and could reach five times that sum. While Trump has seized on similar announcements to show that his presidency is boosting the economy, there were already expectations of a massive buildout of data centers and electricity plants needed for the development of AI.
