Go beyond cardio for physical change

Twice the results half the time!

Are you tired of the same old boring cardio?! So are we! How many times have you had to convince yourself to get to the gym to walk/run on the treadmill? How much physical progress have you seen as a result? Or what about convincing yourself you are NOT a hamster.

It's time to get off that hamster wheel and get on to some actual results.

The image to the left is the different physiques of a marathon runner and a sprinter. Which body type aligns with your goals? How does the same type of movement create such vastly different physiques?

Plain cardio (treadmill, biking, elliptical, etc.) only burns calories while you are performing the exercise, as soon as you're finished your metabolism goes back to steady-state. Steady-state is what is preventing you from reaching your goals! We want to metabolism to be "fired up" all day, this almost ensures we are burning fat from our trouble zones.

Just look at the sprinter's body, she has very lean muscle and great definition. She probably spends less time training than the marathon runner and has a way better physique (in my opinion). How can this be? Well when we push ourselves to perform anaerobic cardio (without oxygen, out-of-breath feeling), our metabolism has to work harder during and after to provide enough oxygen to the heart, lungs and muscles.

get results in beyond cardio class

The main focus of the Beyond Cardio class is to bring you to the fat burn zone. We will use various pieces of equipment; including, weights, bodyweight, hills, tires, steps, etc. to elevate the heart rate and the metabolism. Class design will vary, our training methods keep the mind and body guessing.

Examples formats are:

AMRAP (as many rounds as possible) within a given time frame
40s on/ 20 s off = a specific work to rest ratio
EMOM = every minute on the minute
30 seconds x 3 exercises = 90 sec total work bout of 3 different exercises
TABATA = 20 seconds of work w/ 10 seconds of rest
Repetition pyramids

You will always leave feeling accomplished and will develop a strong core, lower body and upper body - in less time than traditional workouts.

We always encourage use of modifications when needed and to listen to your body.
