WHAT IS HOURBLAST?

Hour Blast is a fun, fast paced, high intensity interval training workout that will have you in the best shape of your life! In an hour long class we combine cardio (on the treadmill) and strength/resistance training exercises (on the floor) to give you the most bang for your buck and a workout that will leave you dripping from head to toe. It is truly a full body workout. We offer a walking, jogging and running option in each class to fit a variety of fitness levels. We love to “sprint to the finish”, “race to the top”, “make every rep count” and continuously strive to “beat the burn”! Our instructors will motivate you to work harder than you’ve ever worked before, encouraging you to get stronger, faster, leaner and overall happier about exercising.
