YOUR BURNING QUESTIONS ANSWERED
We utilize anything and everything that will push you and challenge you in ways different from a typical gym. Some exercises may just use body weight, others may utilize dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, suspension trainers, bands, battle ropes, buckets, tractor tires, PVC pipe … when we say almost anything we mean almost anything! What you WONT see is boring treadmills, and huge intimidating weight machines. We don’t use machines, we build them!
At Route 20 Fitness we cater for all from beginner to advanced. You will work out hard and you will be pushed to be the best of your abilities but at your own pace. All our workouts in all classes are based around intervals, which means you are completing an exercise for a certain amount of time, not a certain number of reps. For example we may have Dumbbell Bicep curls set up at one station with an interval time of 1 minute. You may only get 10 reps in that 1 minute interval, the person next to you may get 20 reps, that’s okay! We never compete with each other and we provide different options for different fitness levels. Exercise should leave you feeling energized and happy, not exhausted.
For best results we recommend at least 3-4 sessions per week. While you can see progress with 1-2 sessions per week, our clients see a big difference in strength and fitness once they up their sessions to 3-4 sessions and beyond.
This will depend on which of our classes you choose, the intensity of the workout for the day, your height, weight, etc … but it usually be between 400-800 calories during the workout session. What sets our program apart from others is the metabolism boost that comes with our workouts. Because of the setup and style of workouts we offer at Route 20 Fitness your metabolism is kicked into overdrive during your workout and your body will burn additional calories in the 24-48 hours after your workout.
