Frequently Asked Questions at Tempo the Studio Lagree

So glad you asked! Go Slow to Grow! The slower your tempo of the exercises the more advanced and challenging your practice becomes. Lagree Fitness utilizes slow, controlled movements. Momentum is avoided at all times. When working with and against resistance slowly, the tension on the muscles stays constant, recruiting more muscle fibers. Working the muscles with control keeps the joints safe and stimulates the intrinsic muscle fibers and connective tissues. Slow, controlled movements activate the body's slow-twitch, fat-burning muscle fibers. This effectively stimulates the body for maximum results

Lagree is a high intensity, low impact strength training. In Lagree we focus on precision in form and body alignment, as well as a controlled slow TEMPO, and the most effective range of motion to stimulate optimal muscle fiber recruitment. Pilates is low-impact, low intensity. Joseph Pilates designed the exercises as a regenerative or rehabilitative method, primarily focused on functional movement, breath and centering.
