AIRBORNE ORIGINALS
Your signature Airborne Fit sweat session. The HIIT workouts are what our members fitness levels are built on. This is a station-based class of relentless intensity where you perform one exercise (this might be bodyweight, weight-based or on a machine) for anywhere between 30 seconds to a minute for multiple rounds. You’ll then move forward to the next station. Be prepared; once you start this full-body blast, you won’t stop for the next 45 minutes. If you want to get a real feel for an Airborne Fit class, ORIGINALS is a must.
RELAY
Our first team-based class, where you’ll work hard in small groups to chip away at some mega calories and reps with the goal of getting them done by the final buzzer! Communication and camaraderie are key, as well as putting in a shift for the person next to you. We’ve always said the Airborne Fit community is stronger TOGETHER and RELAY will truly showcase that.
COMPOUND
A class specifically programmed to push your strength through the roof and really focus on slowing down and nailing your form. Large compound movements, where you’re using multiple muscle groups at once are the backbone of these sessions. Learn to squat, deadlift, press and row correctly, using the barbell, cable machines and more! You’ll then feel confident lifting heavier with great form in other classes. Remember, you control the weights, don’t let them control you!
BUILD AND BURN
Combing the best of two fitness modalities. First you’ll ‘BUILD’ – working on slower, strength movements with dumbbells and kettlebells, challenging yourself with heavier weights on a mission for building muscle. Then in the second half of the class you’ll ‘BURN’, hitting high-intensity circuits and crushing serious calories with short, sharp efforts. This is the perfect class if you want a full-body blast.
HYBRID STRENGTH
If you’re looking to balance your running with specific strength training to improve your performance and reduce your risk of injury, HYBRID STRENGTH is a must-book class. Targeting muscle groups that power our PBs, here you’ll work smarter not harder to build resilience and belief in your bodies ability to not just withstand the demands of running, but thrive when the miles rack up.
ENDURANCE+
Our one hour long sweat-fest! Take your fitness to the next level in a class that is all about ‘YOU vs YOU’. Grab the stamina-boosting benefits from being on the cardio machines for longer periods, whilst combining this with weighted circuits. Building mental toughness and lethal lung capacity, Endurance+ is not one to miss if you’re in the market for performance-enhancing endorphins.
MOBILITY & CORE
An ideal midweek invigorator. This Wednesday workout takes a 360 approach to your health by focussing on two fundamentals; core strength and mobility. The class starts with a 15 minute full-body MOT of dynamic mobility moves to wake you up after just rolling out of bed. You’ll then swiftly move into an all-out 30 minute abs assault. You’ll shock your mid-section with creative core moves every week to chisel never before seen definition in your abs. Six-pack definition incoming…
BREATHE
Airborne Fit’s active recovery class and midweek mover for the mind, as well as body. If you feel a bit sore from classes earlier in the week, BREATHE will promote blood flow to tired muscles and optimise recovery with a combination of clever protocols on our conditioning machines mixed with bodyweight movements. You’ll leave physically and mentally rejuvenated and ready to go 100% in your next high-intensity class later in the week.
HYROX
Every Friday evening and Sunday morning come and train specifically for getting better at the ever-growing in popularity sport of HYROX. Hyrox is a fitness competition combining 8km of running (broken in 1km efforts) with eight different functional fitness stations: SkiErg, Sled Push & Pull, Burpee Broad Jumps, Rowing, Kettlebell Farmers Carries, Sandbag Walking Lunges and Wall Balls. In this one hour class you will have the opportunity to try out all of these stations in simulation style workouts to get you ready to race at the real thing one day.
Small Group Personal Training (SGPT)
Benefit from the tailored, bespoke and hands-on nature of 1-1 personal training, but also utilising the power, motivation and accountability you get from training alongside someone else. The one-hour long sessions cover all bases from building form-perfect, foundational, full-body strength through to developing your aerobic capacity and endurance. Watch your fitness levels go through the roof with weekly SGPT, all while having a load of fun working out among other like-minded people in the process.
AIRBORNE RUN CLUB
Every other Tuesday morning and Thursday night we get together to tackle a different run route in the local area. Whether you pick the 5 or 10km option, it’s always a brilliant start or end to the day and a fantastic way to get out running if you find it hard to motivate yourself or don’t enjoy pounding the pavements alone.
OVER 60s
These classes are for anyone over 60 years old who wants to keep fit, healthy, happy and feel a sense of community, friendship and fun. You will be among a brilliant group of like-minded people for the 45 minute session that introduces you to using weights such as dumbbells and kettlebells, as well as cardiovascular machines such as rowers and bikes. As we know, exercise will improve not only your cardiovascular health, but also stimulate your mind and strengthen your body to help you reduce the likelihood of bones weakening and your chances of picking up an injury. This is for all abilities and all exercises can be adapted so that everyone can take part. There’s no need to book in advance. You can simply turn up and pay £7 on the day (via contactless payment only).
