Strength Training

Kettlebell Crusher with Kenta S.
Full Body + Kettlebells: Warm up with arm circles, tricep stretches, and more. Then, work through five strength circuits, with movements such as kettlebell swings, sumo squats, rear lunges, deadlifts, and more.

Hell’s Bells with Amanda B.
Full Body + Kettlebells: This kettlebell strength workout is designed around unilateral training, meaning working one limb at a time. This helps to improve muscle imbalances and incorporates extra core strengthening. You’ll work through three sets of strength work and finish off with an AMRAP to spike up your heart rate and give you that post metabolic burn! Grab your bells, and let’s go!

Everything in the Middle with Mary O.
Core: This is a core-focused strength training workout. There is a quick 3-minute warmup, followed by three exercises completed for 1 minute each for three rounds. Exercises include sit-ups with rotation, barrel rolls and v-ups, and the beloved mountain climbers.

Compound Movements with Mary O.
Full Body + Dumbbells: This is full body, dumbbell circuit targets your total body, with a focus on your abs. After a 5-minute warmup, you’ll complete a circuit of seven exercises.

Compliment My Body with Ackeem E.
Full Body + Kettlebells: Warm up, then work through several rounds of supersets, in which you’ll have one strength kettlebell movement, complemented with a bodyweight movement.

Yoga

Move For Release with Jade A.
Restorative: This short, restorative flow has lots of stretching that will allow you to get into your quads, hip flexors, and deep into your hips. This class is a runner’s dream, a cardio junkie’s perfect solution, and a yogi’s chance to get even deeper into the asanas (postures).

Unshakable Trust with Jess R.
Vinyasa: Using the unshakable trust mudra throughout this meditation will strengthen the hands, shoulders, and arms to work towards taking a leap of trust and trying a handstand or other challenge pose in yoga or in life! You’re stronger than you think, but use your wisdom not blind courage. Fear holds us back and trust gives us freedom to grow and overcome.

Stretching

Rock the Roll with Kenta S.
Full Body + Foam Roller: Release tension in your muscles with this foam rolling and dynamic stretching class.

No Drama with Amanda B.
Lower Body + Foam Roller: This foam rolling stretch focuses on your lower body to loosen up aching muscles and keep you performing at your best. Grab a roller and let’s roll!

Sublime with Amanda B.
Upper Body + Foam Roller: The benefits of foam rolling include increasing range of motion and shortening recovery time—not to mention it’s a free mini massage! Grab your roller and let’s do it!

Lower Body Remedy with Ackeem E.
Lower Body + Foam Roller: Foam roll your lower body to recover and release any tension in your muscles. It’s important to take some time to stretch and recover, so you can bounce back stronger for your next workout!

Treadmill

Unstoppable with John T.
Intervals: Find your workout sweet spot in this all levels treadmill workout. Start with a steady paced warmup for three songs, then progress through three rounds of threshold paces with equal recovery in between. This will be followed by a steady paced jog for three songs, with a final push at the end.

Rhythmic Breathing with John T.
Intervals: Learn the benefits of rhythmic breathing in this all levels treadmill workout. Rather than given specific speeds, you’ll work through intensity scales and rates of perceived exertion. Start with a 12-minute conversational pace jog, then find your speed for a trio of 3-minute intervals, followed by 3 minutes of recovery walking or jogging. Then finish with a 10-minute jog. This class is excellent for race training, so let’s crush it!

Aaptiv Relays with Ackeem E.
Intervals: This class aims to give you a track and field experience. You’ll work in intervals, and your races will range from 100 meters to 800 meters.

Elliptical

A Thing Called Sweat with Katie H.
Intervals: Sweat to a playlist of your ‘00s alt-rock faves! This interval-based class is split into two parts. In the first part, you’ll hone your intensity levels. In the second part, you’ll do the same work in half the time. Let’s go!

Indoor Cycling

You’re the Boss with Katie H.
Intervals: You’ve got three blocks of work to conquer in this ride: 8 minutes, 9 minutes, and 10 minutes to finish off with a bang. Each block will involve a round of quick intervals and a round of hard to breathless work. One factor will change each round, but one thing will remain the same: that you are the boss of you. Stay strong, stay accountable, and stay sweaty!

Steady and Strong with Jeimy B.
Endurance: This beat-based, endurance ride has you staying in the music for longer, while still pushing past the rhythm.

All About That Beat with Jeimy B.
Intervals: This beat-based, interval cycling class will challenge you to push past the beat a number of times, but how hard you push is up to you.

Meditation

I Am Unstoppable with Jess R.
Guided Meditation: This is a meditation to reignite your self-confidence. When you clear the space around you of negativity, you create room for success.
