"I think everybody could start fitness at the new year because they are all really pumped up, but to stay pumped up you need more than yourself," he said. Lagree said the key to keeping New Year's workout pledges is to build a community, whether by regularly attending classes or finding a friend to work out with. "You get strength, endurance, core, balance, flexibility - all integrated into one workout." "This is, for the first time, a fitness methodology that integrates all of the elements," Lagree said.
"This combines weight training, it combines Pilates, yoga, cardiovascular all in one class."Ĭlasses are based on the Megaformer machine, which features a low-impact resistance system that stretches and works out the entire body.

The gym is offering a new client $99 special for the first month of unlimited classes.Īnother new boutique studio, which opened in December, features a hybrid type of workout. Many clients are women who are pregnant, who recently had a baby and are looking to lose weight, or who are preparing for a wedding, Gertz said. The classes follow the same flow of a warm-up, arm section, thigh section, butt section and ab section, but there is variety in the type of exercises each time. "It's for people who are really looking to tone up those different areas of the body," she said.
The exercises seek to tighten different areas of the body, such as the arms, thighs, abs and butt, during each 55-minute class. Gertz said it's all about a welcoming environment for new attendees, with positive reinforcement from the instructors and a sense of community within the studio.
