As often as you can! Each BLITZ class is different to ensure you are always working different muscle groups and areas of your fitness. We can guarantee that in each BLITZ workout, your body will be pushed, your fitness levels will improve and you will leave feeling proud of what you have achieved!
How many calories will I burn?
The actual amount of calories that you will burn during any BLITZ workout depends on many factors including your weight and your ability to sustain a high level of intensity throughout the workout and will be very much specific to yourself. However, you should be aiming to burn 700+ calories in every BLITZ workout and we get a lot of BLITZ class participants who break the 1000 calorie figure! Not bad for 45 minutes of work!
Why do days of the week focus on different muscle groups?
Exercise variation is an important factor when designing an exercise program and this concept has been a key part of the BLITZ workout programming. It's important to change exercises regularly to ensure maximal impact on performance and avoid any chance of overtraining.
I have injuries, can I still do the workout?
All of the BLITZ workouts are designed with carefully planned exercises, however we always recommend you to speak with your doctor and discussing any injuries specifically prior to taking part in any workout.
I’m pregnant can I still workout?
Many studies have shown that typically active women can safely exercise without harming themselves or their baby. However, as with all medical conditions, injuries or pregnancies, we advise you to speak to your doctor in order to get full medical advice that will be specific to your own body and medical history prior to taking part in any exercise routine.

How early should I arrive for my first BLITZ class?
Make sure you turn up at least 15 minutes prior to the start of your BLITZ class. You will need to make sure you are booked in to the class through the GymNation app - available for download from the IOS or Play Stores. This will give you time to get your heart rate monitor synced up to the FitMetrix system and ensure BLITZ instructor can get the class started on time.
What should I bring to the class?
Make sure you bring a towel and some water to every BLITZ class. If it is your first BLITZ class we will lend you a FitMetrix heart rate device so you can experience the full BLITZ experience and see your BLITZ performance during and after the class. After your first BLITZ class, we advise you to buy your own FitMetrix device from the GymNation main reception.
