Getting (and staying) healthy is ideally something that we’d all like to do, especially in light of recent events! If you’re planning on giving your fitness a boost, then HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training) might just be the thing for you!
HIIT is a cardio workout that focusses on short bursts of intense exercise with periods of rest or low intensity training. This improves your cardio-respiratory health, leads to greater gains, and raises your metabolic rate, so you keep burning calories even after your session! We’ve got our expat fitness experts to ‘work out’ the best HIIT gyms and studios in Singapore – so get training!
Ground Zero

Choose from three different types of workouts, Ride, Rumble, and Resistance, at Ground Zero! Ride consists of a 45 to 60 minute full-body bike workout set to some insane lighting, and thumping beats. With Rumble, you can box your way to fitness with BOXHIIT, or you can try the total body workout experience with Resistance! If you’re the competitive type, try the Showdown workout as a part of your Resistance training and compete to be on top of the leaderboard at the end of the month! As a plus, Ground Zero has great facilities; after a workout head to their locker rooms stocked with Ashley & Co. hair and skincare products.

Since we all live busy lives, it’s all about optimization at Ritual! 30 minutes in and out, and you don’t have to bring, clothes, shoes, or toiletries – just yourself! They specialize in small group sessions of 10 people or less every half hour, and you can cancel 15 minutes before class starts so you have no excuse for not getting your workout in somehow. The focus is on free weights and bodyweight movements to work up a sweat – and, since the class size is small, you get your own fully equipped pod, so you don’t have to worry about sharing sweaty weights.

The OG high-intensity workout frequented by celebs in LA, at Barry’s Bootcamp you can burn up to 1,000 calories per class! Their original workout involves 25 minutes of cardio on the treadmill, along with 25 minutes of strength training on the floor – for that knockout combo! If you prefer to nix the running, try the double floor workout focusing on strength! Although, we guarantee that either workout will leave you sore.
