Colorado alone has roughly 25 studios. Members rave about the results and about the challenge of the workouts. \u201cI absolutely love everything about it,\u201d said Member Stephanie Jepsen. \u201cI really enjoy the workouts, and love how it tracks what you are doing. Really gives you that sense of accomplishment when you are done.\u201d Troy McFarlane agrees. \u201cI enjoy the intense atmosphere,\u201d said McFarlane. \u201cThe group environment is neat as well. And I like that it allows you to compete with yourself and really push yourself.\u201d But don\u2019t let the good times fool you. The classes are meant to be hard. \u201cThey are definitely killer workouts,\u201d said Jepsen. \u201cI have done all sorts of exercise regiments, and they really work you.\u201d In fact, according to McFarlane, the only thing harder than the class, is finding space in a class that works with your schedule. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<!--more-->\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cA lot of people who work have similar schedules,\u201d said McFarlane. \u201cSo, we all try to get into the same classes, which makes it incredibly hard to get into a class time that works for you. I mean, if you are trying to sign up for the 6:30 class the day before, forget about it. You have no chance. And that\u2019s pretty much the same with the 11:45 and the 5:30. Those are just really hard times to get into a class there. In fact, I think getting a preferred time in the class is harder than the class itself, and the classes are pretty hard.\u201d Jepsen agrees. \u201cI\u2019m not a morning person, but the 6:30 class is perfect, given my schedule. I mean, no way I\u2019m getting up at five. But, apparently, several hundred other people feel the same way, so getting into that class is almost impossible. Sometimes, I work from home just so I can go to the 9:15 class, which doesn\u2019t seem as hard to get into.\u201d McFarlane and Jepsen both agree they will continue to work hard to get into the classes. \u201cYou know, it just adds to the challenge,\u201d said McFarlane. \u201cIt\u2019s a reminder of how great the class is and how hard it is. Which starts with getting into a class in the first place.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\t\t\t\t<![CDATA[]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_coblocks_attr":"","_coblocks_dimensions":"","_coblocks_responsive_height":"","_coblocks_accordion_ie_support":"","_genesis_hide_title":false,"_genesis_hide_breadcrumbs":false,"_genesis_hide_singular_image":false,"_genesis_hide_footer_widgets":false,"_genesis_custom_body_class":"","_genesis_custom_post_class":"","_genesis_layout":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[52],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-6812","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-issue-142","7":"entry"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6812","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=6812"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6812\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":8044,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6812\/revisions\/8044"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=6812"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=6812"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/stapletonion.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=6812"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
