GRECO METHOD WORKOUT

HOW OLD DO YOU HAVE TO BE TO TAKE A CLASS?

We require participants to be at least 15 years old to participate in our Greco Method group workouts. We encourage everyone to first meet with one of our trainers to go over their Greco Game Plan to ensure they are moving safely and getting the most out of their workouts. For those younger than 15, we offer personal training, small group training and junior lean and fit at select locations. Please contact your preferred studio to learn more about their offerings.

IS THERE A BEGINNER CLASS?

We tailor all workouts to the specific needs of each individual through variations in our exercises and weight ranges. For the most individualized plan and best results, we recommend meeting with one of our trainers for a Game Plan session to map out your personalized plan and to ensure you are moving correctly through foundational movement patterns.

WHAT SHOES SHOULD I WEAR?

We recommend comfortable, close-toed footwear. Running or training shoes are best. The more you can feel the floor through your footwear, the more efficient you will be during your workouts.

WHAT IF I'M UNABLE TO DO EVERYTHING IN CLASS? I HAVEN'T WORKED OUT IN A WHILE.

We recommend meeting with one of our trainers for a Game Plan session to map out your personalized plan and to ensure you are moving correctly through foundational movement patterns. Your trainer will always be around to guide and encourage you to do your best, but members workout at their own pace. If there’s a movement you’re having difficulty with, we will adapt it to your fitness level so that you can complete it safely and effectively.

CAN I WORKOUT AT GRECO WHILE PREGNANT?

Please consult your doctor before you start with Greco to see if it is a good fit with your current fitness level and exercise routine. We have many members who have trained at Greco throughout their pregnancy without complications. Regardless of what you decide, Greco will be here for you after you welcome your little one(s) into the world!

I WANT TO DO CARDIO, BUT YOU SAY YOU HAVE NO MACHINES. WILL I STILL RECEIVE AN EFFECTIVE CARDIO WORKOUT AT GRECO?

The Greco Method incorporates cardiovascular training into each workout. It won’t be the traditional cardio you may be used to, but we are smart about how much and which movements are sprinkled into each workout to ensure you are getting the perfect dose every workout. And trust us, we’ll get your heart pumping!

WHEN WILL I SEE RESULTS?

Most members start to notice results within their first couple of workouts. We hear comments about muscles working they didn’t know they had, reduced stress and anxiety, improved mood, confidence, higher energy levels and reduced bloating and cravings. Positive stressors from our circuit style workouts do the body good! Our members generally see significant results in the first month but we encourage all members to stay consistent for 3 months to form new habits and to make true lifestyle changes.

WILL I GET BULKY?

The short answer is no. It is really tough to build muscle, let alone get “bulky”.  If you want to expose the muscle underneath, fat must be reduced. Toning happens when you reduce your body fat, exposing the lean muscle you have built underneath. Our workouts are curated to build LEAN muscle and to burn fat. Have no fear! You can lift weights, feel strong and confident WITHOUT getting bulky at Greco.

CAN I WORKOUT EVERYDAY?

We have designed the schedule so that you can workout everyday and not overtrain. We do not recommend this to everyone, but it is possible. The most important thing is to listen to your body and scale your workouts and rest days as needed. We always recommend meeting with one of our trainers for a Game Plan session so you can understand what your ideal week of training should look like at Greco.

DO I NEED TO BOOK AHEAD OF TIME TO ATTEND A CLASS?

We encourage all members to book their workouts in advance – it’s an appointment with yourself, so prioritize it! For those times when life happens and you forget to book ahead or decide last minute that you need a sweat sesh, in most cases, we will be able to squeeze you in. We cap our workouts at 40 people to keep the quality of the experience high for all memebrs.

WILL I BE CHARGED IF I DON'T SHOW UP TO A WORKOUT?

For Greco Method workouts, this policy will differ by studio, but will be very clear when you book your workout. We do require a 24-hour cancellation for any personal training appointments out of respect for our hardworking trainers.

INTELLIGENT BIOSCAN

DOES THE BIOSCAN HURT?

No, the bioscan is pain-free and non-invasive. Some members may feel a slight tingling sensation in their fingers, but most do not feel anything at all.

CAN ANYBODY USE THE BIOSCAN?

Those with heart monitors, pacemakers, or those who are pregnant are advised not to use the bioscan.

IS THERE ANYTHING I NEED TO KNOW BEFORE USING THE BIOSCAN?

Besides being ready to have your mind blown, you should always remember to scan in a consistent state. Consistency is key with the bioscan and to ensure we have an accurate basis for comparison. Your trainer will assist you at all times and will walk you through each step to ensure your safety. Your trainer will also explain your results and instruct you on how to use the information to reach your fitness goals.

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO COMPLETE THE BIOSCAN?

It takes around 15 seconds to complete your scan. Plan for 1 minute total once you have an active profile in our system. If it is your first time using the bioscan, please plan to come 15 minutes before your appointment, so we have time to create a profile and walk you through the process.

NUTRITION EDUCATION

DO YOU OFFER ADVICE ON NUTRITION?

Yes, we are able to have a very accurate nutritional profile thanks to our intelligent bioscan. You can book a session with one of our trainers to review your metrics and design a personalized plan to ensure you are fueling your body properly for your goals.

IS THERE A DIETING PLAN I HAVE TO FOLLOW TO SEE RESULTS?

Training is most effective with proper diet and exercise. We provide you with the knowledge to create and plan a balanced macro- and micronutrient-rich diet to get the best results possible. If at any time you’re having trouble or have questions about your nutrition, feel free to ask your trainer.

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW TO PLAN MY MEALS, CAN GRECO HELP?

While we do not prescribe specific meal plans, we’re happy to assist you in planning out a balanced diet by sharing our experiences, favorite recipes and educating you on exactly how to fuel your body for optimal results.
