Pound fitness is a combination cardio and weight training exercise approach that includes some of the rhythmic techniques used in Pilates. A full body workout that usually lasts 45 minutes to an hour, Pound includes exercises that involve alternate squatting and standing to strengthen the inner and outer thighs, buttock, core muscles, and back muscles. Many of the positions used in Pound are ideal for helping maintain and improve balance as well.

Colorful, lightweight drumsticks called ripstix add an element of fun to Pound classes while they help exercisers count out the length of time they hold certain positions. Although they are light weight, the ripstix also help tone forearms, upper arms, chest and shoulders.



The only thing you need to be successful in a pound class is comfortable light-weight workout attire, well-fitted sneakers, and motivation to improve your fitness! When you arrive at a Pound class, you will be given a mat and ripstix.
