Description
Small high intensity 35 minute sessions. These low impact, group sessions are specifically designed to build strength, fitness and stamina over a rolling 4 week period. Each participant's workout is scaled to their ability and fitness level.
You can join in any week you don't have to wait for week 1 to participate. A very time efficient and effective way to train and by nature very metabolic - ie. there is little rest between exercises, unless you need it, and therefore you'll work at a consistently higher heart rate with a relatively high caloric burn both during and after your workout.
We've tracked various workouts at between 250 - 300cals expended during each session. The post workout caloric burn will follow you through the rest of your day! This is technically known as excess post-exercise oxygen consumption or simply, EPOC. Several studies suggest there's a strong correlation between the number of calories burned post exercise and the activity's intensity.
