Posted on fitness And tagged Group Class, Fitness, Spartans, Workout

Do you exercise regularly? Do you love a challenge? Do you flourish with good music in a pleasant environment? Then stop by the Spartan exercises in Holmes Place. Here's why it's just right for you.

There is nothing better than the thrill of developing yourself physically. Spartan from Holmes Place is a 45-minute, high-intensity workout that sculpts, strengthens, and tones your entire body.

Spartaner is for those who flourish during demanding group training sessions. It uses cardiovascular, agility and strength exercises and was developed specifically for an urban warrior. If you're already a fan of high-intensity training sessions, then now is probably the time to up the ante. Read on to see what the course includes (and why you'll be obsessed with it):

1. It is designed for the modern warrior:

In contrast to the Greek Spartans, who left their mark in history books, this training was inspired by an urban warrior. Someone who must prepare for daily functional challenges by training and increasing resistance, strength and endurance.

2. It's about the challenge:

Spartan is one of the most intensive group training that Holmes Place has to offer. Forget the other “challenging” classes you've tried before, this one will really test your skills and bring your fitness to warrior levels!

3. There is music in your ears:

With the modern daredevil in mind, Spartan brings a wave of extra adrenaline in the form of music. This takes you from the first phase of activation through a five-stage tour that includes medicine balls, coordination ladders, batting ropes and resistance fitness bands. Music will not only improve the overall experience, but it will also inspire and motivate you to work your way to peak fitness.

4. The pillars of strength:

Like any warrior, we all need mental and physical strength to survive — and modern society comes with its own challenges. Spartan training requires full concentration and a high level of energy so that you can complete the physical tasks with intensive repetitions - as a reward, you get toned muscles and extra strength. Spartan was developed with the four pillars of human movement in mind. They are:

● Movement (body movement from one place to another in a specific space)

● Pull and push (with rubber bands)

● Level changes (lunges and squats)

● Torso rotation

5. It is very demanding:

This super intensive workout delivers exactly what it promises, requires full commitment to training sessions and includes cardiovascular conditioning with exercises inspired by volleyball, basketball and American football. Spartans include units that require group interaction to use special equipment such as combat ropes (extremely fun). Needless to say, you get tired quickly from this workout.

6. It makes your heart race:

Don't doubt for a second that this high-intensity workout won't cause your blood to pump and your heart to beat like you've never experienced before in a Holmes Place group workout. Cardiovascular conditioning combined with resistance, strength and endurance training gives you the same feeling as a “runner's high.” That exhilaration that we all want to have.

Are you longing for that Spartan high? Book a trial lesson with us - then you will see how body and mind will gain strength.
