What is the best fitness class for beginners?
Gym FAQs › Fitness classes
The best fitness class for beginners is one led by a coach who shows you each exercise and offers easier options, so you can work at your own pace. Mobility, Pilates and circuit-style strength classes are good places to start, because they build a base of strength and movement before you add intensity.
Good first classes to try
- Movement and mobility classes to build flexibility and control
- Pilates to strengthen your core and improve posture
- Circuit or strength classes where each exercise can be scaled
- Small group personal training for extra coaching attention
Tips for your first class
Arrive a few minutes early and tell the coach you are new and about any injuries. Wear comfortable clothes and trainers, bring water, and do not worry about keeping up with anyone else. A good coach will make sure you leave feeling you can come back.
