Barry’s Bootcamp is the Tesla of the HIIT studio phenomenon. It's 50 minutes of very hard work. You can be sure the music is pumping, perfectly timed to the exercise of the second. As is the new-ish trend with fitness studios, the room is dim. Barry's signature lighting is deep red.
In order to exercise efficiently and effectively, knowing your percentages of body fat, muscle distribution and body water balance is a game changer. It’s the same as keeping your engine tuned for maximum fuel efficiency and performance. Without this information, the number on the scale is practically irrelevant.
Pilates reformer classes can be ideal, since they are short and the workout is complete. Also, the reformer machines are SO fun. You slide around and pull on straps and it feels like an amusement park ride…for about 3 seconds. Then you start shaking and sweating (in the best way, of course).
Orangetheory is on its game. The recording and tracking of heart rate and calories burned are music to the ears of the anal fitness fiend and is a great way to chronicle real results. If you live for a serious sweat and that feeling in your lungs that you pushed it to the limit, head to Orangetheory right now.
