FIRST CLASS FAQs

BEFORE CLASS

  • We recommend arriving at the gym 10 minutes before the session. This will allow time to get you checked into session and show you around the facility.

  • Say hello to whoever is coaching the session and mention that it is your first time. They’ll take good care of you.

DURING CLASS

  • ABT sessions are coach-led group functional fitness sessions. Every session you will be guided through a workout specific warm-up, a strength block or conditioning block (depending on the day) and a cool-down stretch.

  • Drink bottle, gym towel and a great energy.

  • Wear athletic clothes that are comfortable for you to sweat and move in.

  • All of our sessions are beginner-friendly and allow everyone to train at their own pace.

    Our coaches are trained to modify and make adjustments to the program on the fly to meet you where you are.
