Group Exercise Classes and Their Benefits



When going to the gym, especially when joining, some members may not know what to do once they’re in the building. While some struggle with the exercises they need to do, others simply don’t know how to structure them. A great way to ease into exercising is by attending group exercise classes. Fitness classes are great fun as they offer something a bit more different to the gym in a relaxed, but competitive environment, in which class goers experience many benefits.

1. You can easily find your motivation

When seeing other members tackling various exercises and doing their best, the only way to carry on with the class is to give it your best as well. It is inspiring to be surrounded by like-minded individuals, who are willing to put in the work and encourage others at the same time. This is how many members find their motivation - either through encouragement from others including the class instructors, by encouraging others or just through some friendly competitiveness during the session.

2. Group exercise classes give more structure to your workouts

They are a great way to get a workout without doing any planning. Each class is  structured with a warm-up, a workout and a cool-down, and the knowledgeable instructors would have done all the planning in advance. The only thing you need to do is turn up.

3. You have and maintain good form throughout the session

Each group exercise instructor is there to help our members. They are there to help you achieve good form and to give you tips for performing the exercises or routines in the right way. This is where the benefits really start to show: good form is important for your muscles to make the most of each exercise, but also to help prevent injuries.

4. Fitness classes add variety to your workout

Box fitter, spin, Insanity, circuits, yoga, Zumba and the list goes on. Here at Synergy we offer a wide variety of classes, suited to individual needs and performance. Having some variety in your workouts helps limit the effects of plateaus, as not having a set routine that you perform every week will keep your body guessing what’s coming next. This will help ramp up your metabolism and burn more calories. Not to mention the added advantage of preventing boredom!

5. Accountability

The Synergy class booking system offers you the chance to book all your sessions for the following week in advance. This way, you can plan ways to challenge your body differently every day. Also, by doing this, you also commit to going to the sessions - increasing your accountability and reducing the chances of losing motivation and not turning up at the gym on the day.

6. Group classes are fun

By going to sessions regularly, you will meet people and build relationships with like-minded individuals, in a laid-back environment, with good beats, people who motivate you, as well as a structure to follow - which you didn’t have to create.
Why not pop in and experience something different? Synergy has the widest variety of sessions in the area, spread throughout the day, to suit everyone’s lifestyle and fitness level. And with instructors with years of experience, knowledge and passion behind them, you will be supported all the way to your results
