Fall Into A New Routine At These 7 NYC Fitness Studios

Fall is officially underway in New York City, which means people are looking to get back into their routine after an eventful summer – and with a new season, comes new fitness opportunities. Between new studio openings and revamped class formats from some of New York’s hottest studios, the options are endless this fall and we couldn’t be more excited to share them with you.

With 36 studio locations across the country, it’s about time this 50-minute intense and body changing workout came to New York City. [solidcore] is pilates [intensified], bootcamp [redefined], and resistance training like you’ve never experienced before. Through slow, deliberate movements based upon planks, squats or lunges and executed on the patented [sweatlana] machine, participants leverage spring cables for resistance (between 2 and 300 pounds) to strengthen the entire body through a series of controlled movements with quick transitions to ensure muscles maximum time under tension. Every muscle group is taken to muscle failure, and failure is success at [solidcore]. This workout combines multiple disciplines: the intensity of Crossfit without the high impact that can lead to injury; the use of body weight and spring loads to create just the right amount of resistance, as with TRX and Pilates; and the strengthening benefits of weight lifting without unsafe, improper form.

JABS x Project By Equinox

Don’t let the name fool you – you don’t have to be an Equinox member to take either of Gina DiNapoli‘s “feel yo-self” inspired workouts. The first , JABS x Tone, is done through a a kickboxing workout made up of mini routines that incorporate punches, kicks, and toning exercises with a medium set of dumbbells and medium-to-high number of reps. And to add to the intensity, 2/3 of the workout uses an exercise bench… Needless to say, plan your rest day to be the following day. She makes it fun at the end with some floor work and boxing drills, and won’t let you walk out of the studio without your abs in flames. The second class, JABS x Cardio, is a choreography-based workout utilizing 2lb or 3lb wrist weights. In both of her classes, you’re invited and encouraged to channel your inner bad-ass, get lost in your workout, let out any and all frustrations, and have so much fun and be so mentally focused that you forget you’re working out.

BRRRN

While heat based workouts are abundant in NYC, BRRRN is hitting the other end of the spectrum with three 50-minute workouts done in rooms set at 60-degree temperatures or below. Why the cold? In short, when you exercise in cooler temperatures, you optimize the fitness experience because you burn more calories than in ambient or hot, you burn fat, you can grow a tolerance to cold, and cooler temperatures provide the optimal temperature for working out – heat can limit your body’s ability to perform at its best.

The first workout, FLOW, is a yoga inspired mobility and strength series that features dynamic-yogic movement patterns fused with breath-focused, mobility, and meditative exercises to strengthen, lengthen, and better align the mind-body connection. The class is set in a 60-degree room but finishes with a dose of well-deserved heat from the overhead infrared panels in the studio.

The second class, SLIDE, is a core and cardio slide board circuit based class that is focused on core and total body conditioning in a 55-degree room. The slide board is utilized as a means to improve balance, mobility, sculpt legs (with an emphasis on the glutes), strengthen inner thighs, improve core strength and overall muscular endurance, Their third and final class, HIT, is a battle rope infused high impact class that combines both dumbbell circuit training with battle rope exercises to improve overall strength and conditioning. Set in a 45-degree room, BRRRN encourages participants to wear light layers.
