Powering Wellness at Work: A Longstanding Partnership with Kootenai Electric Cooperative
At Empathy Fitness, we believe that when companies invest in employee wellness, everyone wins—morale improves, energy rises, and cultures thrive.
That belief is at the heart of our continued partnership with Kootenai Electric Cooperative (KEC), where we recently completed another milestone: upgrading their corporate fitness space with brand new Freemotion T10.9b Reflex Treadmills.
A Relationship Rooted in Progress
Our collaboration with KEC has grown over several years, built on a shared commitment to continuous improvement. Together, we’ve enhanced their wellness space step by step—each upgrade driving greater employee participation and engagement.
This latest addition—premium-level Freemotion treadmills—has been especially impactful. Employees now have access to commercial-grade cardio equipment that’s not only performance-driven, but also engineered for durability and joint-friendly impact absorption. And the feedback? Let’s just say these treadmills are getting plenty of miles.
Sustainability That Moves With Purpose
In this install, we were proud to take things a step further—not just in wellness, but in sustainability.
We partnered once again with Assurance Fitness Repair, who handled both the installation of the new treadmills and the responsible removal of the previous units. Rather than sending those machines to a landfill, Assurance extracted them for refurbishment and resale—giving them a second life and reducing waste in the process.
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword here—it’s a principle. And we’re proud to align with partners like Assurance who make reuse and recycling a standard part of their process.
Why It Matters
Companies like KEC are setting an example—not just by investing in wellness, but by doing it with intention. This project reflects a larger truth: small choices, done consistently, lead to real impact—whether that’s healthier employees or less equipment ending up in a landfill.
We’re honored to keep supporting KEC’s vision for a healthier workplace and a more responsible future.
