When that final timer rings you should not walk out of there feeling like a limp noodle. The goal is to feel completely emptied out in the best possible way. You want your skin to be humming with that post workout heat and your muscles to have that deep heavy vibration that tells you they actually did some real work today. It is a strange contrast because your legs might feel like they weigh a hundred pounds yet your head feels clearer than it has all morning.

You want to reach a state where you are physically spent but mentally charged. You know you gave every ounce of effort you had in that room so there is zero guilt about taking the rest of the day easy if you have to. It is the feeling of having flushed out all the stress of your morning commute and all the tension of sitting in your office chair. Instead of dragging your feet to the car you should feel like you are walking on solid ground because you are finally connected to your physical self again.

It should feel like you have been wrung out like a sponge and left clean. Your heart should still be racing just a bit so you know you were actually pushing your limits but you are in total control of your breath again. That is the magic of the training there. You are not walking out broken because you are walking out built. It is about reaching that sweet spot where you are tired enough to sleep soundly tonight but alert enough to handle whatever else life throws at you before the sun goes down.

Our programs

The Sweat Standard: The perfect workout in one hour.
This class combines cardiovascular training with strength training using a variety of equipment such as barbells, kettlebells, dumbbells, battle ropes, and resistance bands. You will spend 50% of the class working with weights and the other 50% on a cardio machine. The definitive workout for real results!

Sweat Express:
A 45 minute class. The format is very similar to the Standard class but with shorter sets.
Great for those who want to burn calories but are short on time!

Sweat Just Lift:
A 60 minute class for those looking to focus exclusively on strength training.
The programming for this class is aligned with the Standard class to ensure you do not miss any of the primary lifts. For example, on Mondays the focus is on quads and abs. This is a great option for those who have other cardiovascular training options during the week.
