More about this category
What intense classes are
Intense classes are high-density group workouts that give you a full-body load in 45-60 minutes. This includes functional training with kettlebells, ropes, and bodyweight work, interval formats that alternate short bursts of maximum effort with rest, CrossFit and its variations, indoor cycling to music, circuit training, and strength aerobics. They all share one thing: a high heart rate for nearly the whole class and a high energy burn. A coach leads the program, setting the pace and watching your technique. The mix of formats and their intensity depends on the studio; check the partner's card in the 1Fit app for the current schedule and class descriptions.
Who intense classes are for
These classes appeal to people short on time: an hour of interval training can give you the workload that would take an hour and a half in the gym. It's the fastest way to boost endurance and burn calories, which is why the category is popular with anyone working on their weight. The group format helps you stick with it — other participants are training alongside you, and the coach keeps the pace up. Experienced athletes use intense classes as an addition to strength training. Beginners can join too, but carefully: pick a beginner-level class and don't try to match the group's pace. If you have heart, blood pressure, or joint issues, check with a doctor first.
How to choose a studio in the 1Fit app
Turn on the category filter in the 1Fit app — the map will show partner studios near your home or work. Classes run on a schedule, so first check whether there are sessions at a convenient time. In the studio's card, look at the formats: functional training, cycling, and CrossFit are all different intensities, and beginners should start with a class marked for beginners. Pay attention to group size — in smaller groups, the coach has time to correct everyone's technique, which matters for safety in intense formats. Reviews from other members will tell you about the coach and how intense the classes really are.
Why a single subscription is convenient for intense classes
Intense workouts shouldn't be done every day — your body needs recovery, and the right cycle alternates them with gentler activity. The 1Fit subscription works better for this than a single-studio pass: interval training on Monday, pool or stretching on Tuesday, the gym on Thursday, cycling on Saturday — all on the same plan. It also removes the guesswork of picking a format blind: you can try CrossFit, functional training, and cycling at different partner studios without paying extra for each one. And if a class at one studio doesn't fit your schedule, you'll find another.

Yes. A 1Fit membership isn't tied to one gym: you can go to the gym today and try yoga, boxing, or swimming tomorrow.
Yes, if you start with entry-level classes and slow down when it gets tough. It's better to focus on technique rather than going all-out in your first sessions. After a few weeks your endurance will improve, and you can move on to more demanding formats.
Two to three intense sessions a week with a rest day in between is usually recommended. On other days, it's better to stick to gentler activities: stretching, swimming, a walk. With a single 1Fit subscription, it's easy to combine these across different gyms.
Functional training builds movement patterns useful in everyday life, and the intensity is more moderate. CrossFit is built around competition and working against the clock with heavier weights and more complex movements. Beginners usually find it easier to start with functional classes.
Comfortable athletic clothing, shoes with good cushioning, a towel, and water — you'll need to drink a lot. For cycling, regular sneakers are fine; you don't need special shoes. The studio provides the equipment for the class.
