What We Do
HIIT MEETS
STRENGTH.
FIT is a dynamic fusion of High-Intensity Interval Training (HIIT) and strength training, designed to develop the hips and core that power everything you do.
By building multi-planar movement into functional training, FIT develops strength that carries over to real life. Muscles learn to work together efficiently, so members become stronger and more capable in their daily tasks and in their sports.
Every session is a fast-paced 45 to 60 minutes in a small group, so coaches can give personal attention while the group keeps the energy high. Workouts are scaled to each person and rotate between total-body strength and conditioning, power and plyometrics, core and stability, cardio intervals, and focused mind-muscle work.
FUNCTIONAL
Real-life movement in real-life positions. Exercises train your muscles to work together for the things you do at home, at work, and in sports.
INTENSE
Short, hard intervals that keep your heart rate up and your metabolism working long after you leave, scaled to where you are today.
TRAINING
Coached small-group sessions, multiple times a day, built to keep you progressing week after week.
Ages 7 to 88
