Slow Resistance Training
THE METHOD
The Elev8 Method is a 45-minute, full-body workout that burns fat and sculpts lean muscle faster than any other fitness program. Our classes combine strength, endurance, cardiovascular, balance, flexibility, and core training, saving you time and maximizing results. Our method is all about activating your slow-twitch muscle fibers through slow, controlled movements.
The cardio element of our classes is reached by removing rest periods and making fast transitions from one exercise to the next. At Elev8, longevity is key. That’s why our classes are a high intensity, low-impact workout that is safe on the joints, spine, and connective tissues.
You can expect to burn up to 500-800 calories in each muscle-shaking class. You will begin to see changes in your body after one month by attending classes 2-3 times a week.

THE MACHINE
There are eight springs on each machine – three red and five yellow. When at full extension, each red spring bears 40 pounds of weight, while each yellow spring bears 7 pounds of weight.
