The LAB DC

What is the LAB

A 75-minute full-body program designed to help you build strength, increase endurance, and enhance your overall well-being

The Workout

Class is broken down into four parts: Wake Up, Warm Up, Work, and Cashout

Wake Up

Mobilize the body for strength development and optimal joint function ensuring you move efficiently and effectively.

Warm Up

A circuit-style warm up that includes strength, conditioning, core and agility exercises to prime the body for the movement patterns and primary muscle groups of the day.

Work

The Lift! We’ll focus on 1-2 traditional complex barbell lifts per class. This is designed to accommodate individuals of varying skill levels.Upper Body will focus on chest, back, and shoulders. Lower Body will focus on glutes, hamstrings, and quads. Push and Pull  will focus on those two specific movement patterns, respectively.

Cashout

The CASHOUT is the conditioning and final piece of class. We’ll leverage both cardio equipment and free weights to challenge your cardio capacity, strength, and endurance. This section of class increases in duration and intensity as the week progresses.  

Speciality Classes

This class has a longer Wake Up, a strength-focused Warm Up, one primary barbell lift, and a high-volume lower body Cashout. The lower body barbell exercise follows a four week strength cycle. This class is designed to accommodate individuals of varying skill levels at any point in the cycle.

Wildcard

The workout outside of your normal strength training routine. Each WILDCARD workout has a name and a theme. Anything else goes, so be prepared to be challenged mentally and physically. No rules!
