Get fit or die trying. Are you looking for the best studio workouts in 2021? We still haven’t joined a gym this year. As former gym junkies since we were 18, we changed the way we worked out to stay fit during Covid-19. We combined running outside, using our apartment gyms and streaming P.volve classes. P.volve just reopened their Soho studio and invited us to take a class. We are excited to share the best studio workouts in 2021 and P.volve updates with you.
Best Studio Workouts in 2021: P.volve
We have been active users of P.volve’s streaming classes over the past 2 years. We consider it one of the best studio workouts in 2021. P.volve is a functional movement-based method developed by Stephen Pasterino that elongates muscles and builds strength. We visited their studio a few times pre-pandemic. We added their streaming sessions to our weekly workout routines. P.volve’s low-impact training method strengthens, sculpts and tones targeted muscles. This workout complements the HIIT and cardio sessions that we’ve been doing for years. It’s great to workout on on your own schedule with their streaming app.
We recommend combining P.volve streaming classes with some in-person classes to improve technique and form. If you are vaccinated, you can take their classes mask-free in NYC (just show your vaccination card to the front desk). The high energy, loud music, camaraderie and hands-on instruction are something we miss while working out at home.
Best Studio Workouts in 2021: P.volve’s Proprietary Equipment
P.volve’s proprietary equipment includes the P.3 trainer, P-ball and P-band. We recommend the Total Transformation Kit, which includes proprietary equipment plus resistance bands, ankle weights, light dumbbells, slant board, foam roller and gliders.
Best Studio Workouts in 2021: What a P.volve Class Looks Like?
We used a few pieces of P.volve equipment during our 55 minute in-person class. The P.3 trainer is one of their newer pieces, so we welcome any advice on correcting our form. The P.3 uses resistance training with two, ankle straps, an attachable handle and attachable 1.5-lb ball. This equipment targets the arms, legs and abs and you can use it while standing up or on the mat.
Light dumbbells and ankle weights never felt so heavy. P.volve’s slow movements really target and tone. In HIIT workouts we usually use 8-10 pounds, but with P.volve, all you need is 2 pounds to feel the burn.
This year, try a P.volve class in the studio and / or the app. Streaming costs $19.99 monthly (or $95.88 annually) and classes range from 15 minutes to an hour. We recommend streaming the app to our TV. P.volve launched the Phase and Function series to work with the ebb and flow of your hormones to help you feel empowered. The app will give you a personalized workout and meal plan based on your cycle. You can also sign up for a 7-day free trial.
Exercise to stimulate, not to annihilate. The world wasn’t formed in a day, and neither were we. Set small goals and build upon them.
