Helix Gym's Small Group Classes - Where Transformation Happens
The Importance of Elevating Your Fitness
- Robust Health: Regular, structured exercise strengthens the cardiovascular system, mitigates disease risks, and boosts overall vitality.
- Vigorous Energy: With enhanced stamina, daily tasks become effortless, amplifying life's enjoyment.
- Mental Fortitude: Fitness fosters mental resilience. The endorphins released act as natural mood lifters, combating daily stresses.
Cardio Zones Demystified
- Zone 1 (50-60% of max heart rate): Ideal for warming up, this zone sets the stage.
- Zone 2 (60-70% of max heart rate): Dubbed the 'fat-burning zone', it refines endurance and optimises fat utilisation.
- Zone 3 (70-80% of max heart rate): The aerobic or 'cardio zone' vital for comprehensive cardiovascular health.
- Zone 4 (80-90% of max heart rate): The high-intensity, anaerobic zone designed for those pushing limits.
