SCULPT YOUR CORE & BURN FAT
This Class combines HiiT with some tough Core exercises to work on the mid-section in between the tough high-intensity exercises.
HiiT stands for High Intensity Interval Training. It’s great for building up your endurance as it adapts to the cellular structure of your muscles which in turn helps to boost your performance for other gym or general exercises. In fact, a recent study from the “Journal of Physiology” found that eight weeks of HiiT classes boosted endurance and allowed people to double the length of time they could ride a bike at the same pace. After a HiiT workout your body’s repair cycle goes into overdrive. Even after you have finished your body goes on burning calories and fat for 24 hours after the class has ended. A HiiT workout uses the body as a weight training aid so if you are dieting, you preserve muscle gain whilst losing fat.

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF HIIT & ABS BLAST CLASSES?
HIIT specifically targets belly fat. A 2018 meta-analysis by French researchers showed that “HIIT significantly reduced total, abdominal, and visceral fat mass” (the fat stored around your abdominal organs), backing up earlier findings from a smaller Italian study from 2016 that a combination of HIIT and steady-state workouts were the most effective in reducing fat around the midsection.
