Fancy Something New?

Getting fit is a battle, but it can be made that bit easier if you’re getting fit doing something you love, so why not try out one of these exercise classes and see if you discover a new passion!

Shred (seen above)

Shred is exclusive to Fitness First, combining compound lifting with a HIIT based class to drive calorie burn, performance, strength and conditioning. 

To start you’ll receive a warm up routine with coaching on each of the lifts included in the class. You’ll then work your way through 5 different compound lifts twice, with a performance based HIIT recovery in-between. Performing a 1 minute lift, followed by a 30 second HIIT, and followed by a repetition of the lift for 1 minute.

There will be 5 blocks with 5 different compound lifts and 5 different HIIT exercises, before a challenging ‘finisher’ activity, ending with bar stretches to assist you in releasing those large muscle groups worked in the class.
