Some of our class participants actually try combining all three: yoga, pilates and our classes. Setting up a weekly fitness routine that encompasses yoga, Pilates, and a gym membership in Omaha can be a great way to create a well-rounded regimen. A great starting point is to plan for your yoga and Pilates courses for different days of the week, for instance yoga on Mondays and Wednesdays and Pilates on Tuesdays and Thursdays. This will enable you to center on diverse elements of fitness on each day and give your body the opportunity to rest between classes. Aside from yoga and pilates, you can factor in our classes on Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, depending on your timetable and inclinations.

It is also essential to contemplate the timing and area of your classes when establishing your schedule. For example, if you would rather work out in the morning, you may want to plan your yoga and Pilates classes for earlier in the day, and your gym membership for later. On the other hand, if you lean towards exercising in the evening, you may want to plan your classes accordingly. Moreover, you may want to look into classes that are close to your home or work to make it convenient for you. Our instructors are here to help plan any of these ideas out.

Yes, our workouts can help improve posture and alignment. Ultimate Workout classes typically involve a variety of work outs that work the core, back and shoulder muscles, which are essential for maintaining good posture. Exercises like planks, push-ups, and squats require a proper alignment of the body and the engagement of core muscles. When these work outs are done consistently, it can help improve muscle strength and tone, which in turn can help improve posture. Additionally, our instructors are big on including exercises like lunges and step-ups, which can help with alignment of the hips and legs, thus promoting a better posture.

Yes, our workouts can be considered a combination of cardio, strength, and flexibility training.

Our programs are known to be highly effective for burning calories compared to other activities, due to their high-intensity nature.

During a HIIT workout, your body works at a high intensity level, which causes your heart rate to increase, and your body to burn more calories. Additionally, the high-intensity nature of HIIT style work outs cause your body to continue burning calories even after the workout is over, a phenomenon known as the “after-burn effect” or “excess post-exercise oxygen consumption (EPOC)”. This means that your metabolism is boosted for hours after your workout is done. 

Yes, our classes can help improve overall strength and core strength by including work outs that target multiple muscle groups s, as well as core-specific work outs.

That’s why we offer three stations during class; treadmills, spin bikes, and fit benches.
