The Megaformer workout is on top

The Megaformer

Efficient, effective, intense.

According to a December 2019 USA Today article, ClassPass determined that the Megaformer workout was the fastest growing fitness trend in America. Check out the article here.

We don’t do ‘trends’ but we’re stoked that the Megaformer workout is gaining broader appeal.  We have known this for years! Lagree Fitness is simply the most efficient workout one can achieve in a relatively short amount of time - more intensity, less time.  

What makes Lagree Fitness so efficient?

At the forefront, the foundation of Lagree Fitness is the patented Megaformer.  With it’s center carriage, front and rear platforms, and various spring tension options each workout delivers a high intense, low impact workout engaging multiple muscles and muscle groups all at once. The workout forces a greater awareness in movement resulting in stimulated neuromuscular activity.  It is why we have a deliberately slow pace. You’ll hear us repeat this phrase constantly during class - “the slower you go, the more muscle you use, the greater the result.” 

The American Council on Exercise defines movement as the result of muscle force, where actions at one body segment affect successive body segments along the kinetic chain.  The ability of an individual to move efficiently requires that his or her body possesses appropriate levels of both stability and mobility. The Megaformer addresses stability and mobility in every move.  

For too long, fitness has been dominated by cardio centric formats with limited muscle activation movements and narrow benefits.  The body’s everyday movements are multiplanar.  At BURN, we favor integration over isolation - we train movements, not singular muscles.
