As millions consider new fitness goals for the New Year, an innovative workout method is rising in popularity at a studio in St. Petersburg.
Beginning a new year often leads to a renewed focus on fitness, with many people opting to explore novel exercise routines. One such trend that has caught the attention of fitness enthusiasts is the Lagree method, now available at a studio in St. Petersburg, Florida.
The Lagree method, explained by Studio Physique trainer Dominique Baccani, is a high-intensity yet low-impact workout conducted on specialized equipment known as a Megaformer. “It’s really a new method. It’s only been around since 2009, 2010, but it’s definitely growing fast,” Baccani shared.
Baccani, who transitioned from being a swim coach to a Lagree trainer last year, describes the workout as efficiently tailored for individuals with tight schedules. “It’s so high intensity, low impact, but you also get it done in 50 minutes,” she noted. This makes it a suitable choice for those who want to fit a workout into a busy day.
The classes at Studio Physique, which offer group sessions, have been met with enthusiastic demand. “Classes that weren’t even on the schedule before, we added a few extra at night and a few extra in the morning, and lately, we’ve had all of those classes sold out,” Baccani said.
For beginners, Baccani aims to dispel any intimidation about trying Lagree. She emphasizes the diversity of the regimen, which combines elements of cardio, strength, flexibility, and endurance, making it appealing to a wide audience.
To maintain motivation and achieve potential fitness goals, Baccani suggests starting with manageable commitments. “Those smaller, attainable goals kind of build up your confidence, get you into the routine, and then you can make those bigger goals later on,” she advised.
Lagree’s growing popularity suggests it is ideally suited for busy individuals looking for a high-intensity workout that can be completed in less than an hour. With classes filling up rapidly at Studio Physique, this method reflects a modern approach to fitness that combines variety, effectiveness, and convenience.
