SCARSDALE, NY, November 28, 2010
/24-7PressRelease/ -- Six years of research has led to the development of Tread-X, a new fitness class developed by Michelle Lichtman of Bodyfit Studio in Scarsdale, NY. In the specially designed Tread-X room, class members rotate between interval training on state-of-the-art treadmills, TRX three-dimensional suspension training, and interval cardio floor work. Clients burn up to hundreds of calories while simultaneously strengthening, stretching and sculpting - and always leave energized and eager for the next class!
Cardio classes that help sculpt and lose weight simultaneously are limited, and classes such as spinning build extra, unwanted bulk in thigh muscles. Tread-X sculpts and tones all muscles evenly and is for all fitness levels, from the inexperienced to the "iron men and women," as each member works at his or her own level and is pushed to his personal best. With an initial student to teacher ratio of ten to one, Tread-X provides the benefit of a personal trainer without the added expense.
Lichtman, owner of Bodyfit Studio and creator of Tread-X, traveled the world, taking fitness classes in China, Japan, Brazil, France, Italy and England, and combined the best and most effective weight loss and body toning techniques from each class.
"The most important factors for weight loss are high intensity interval training and a change of routine. When doing the same exercise repeatedly, your body gets used to it and you reach a plateau. With Tread-X, both the routine and pace are ever-changing, ensuring that every muscle of the body is constantly strengthened and challenged, and you are constantly burning fat," says Lichtman. "The class was created because our clients wanted to lose weight. Other types of cardio like spinning, build bulky thighs, which are difficult to fix once built up. What might be good for men is not necessarily good for women and we needed to address that." Taken in conjunction with the original Bodyfit classes, people will lose weight and develop strong, lean muscles. "Our clients are hooked because they have never seen anything quite like it," continues Lichtman. Classes that focus solely on the TRX apparatus are also being developed, and specialized classes designed for men will be coming shortly.
Lichtman recommends taking a Tread-X class three times per week and taking a class with less cardio and a larger focus on strengthening and sculpting on the "off days", such as the barre class offered by Bodyfit. (Note that this frequency may change depending on the person.)
Tread-X costs $30 per class, and discounted packages are available. For more information, visit http://www.tread-x.com.
The studio is located at 858 Scarsdale Avenue in Scarsdale, New York.
