It’s not Pilates, it’s LAGREE! The Lagree Method is unlike any other workout in the market. It’s the ultimate full body burn using variable resistance exercises in time-under-tension training to get your heart pumping and awaken your senses. Slow, controlled movements means participants cannot use momentum, but instead must activate slow twitch muscle fibers which demands more metabolic work per unit of time. Slow twitch muscles are the fat burning muscles that will have you burning calories long after class. Each routine incorporates quick transitions between moves resulting in minimal downtime demanding cardiovascular growth, which in turn burns more calories. Class is performed on the patented Megaformer machine which utilizes springs as variable resistance. Traditional weight training can overload the joints and underload the muscles. Variable resistance does the opposite, protecting the muscles, joints, and tendons. It’s effective because you’re engaging and fatiguing more muscles than any other strength-based workout. Benefits of the Lagree workout includes muscular strength, elongated muscles, core stability, endurance, toning, fat loss, lower blood pressure, improved balance and body coordination, and a sense of accomplishment and pride. Each class can be adapted for the seasoned athlete or first time participant. The workout never gets easier, but you will get stronger!
