Twentyfour at Virgin Active
Twentyfour is a high intensity interval training (HIIT) class that provides an intense, full body workout, with participants using their own body weight to achieve results in just 24 minutes.
LA20 at Fitness First
These new high intensity classes are designed to help you burn maximum calories in just 20 minutes. Choose between LA20 Bootcamp (which involves resistance training and body weight exercises), LA20 Triceps, Shoulders and Legs, Bums and Tums (which incorporates free weights), and LA20 Plyometric Movement (where you'll strengthen your muscles using squat jumps and bunny hops).
Tabata at Fitness First
This HIIT class lasts just 20 minutes, with only 4 minutes of intense activity in 20-second bursts, followed by 8 seconds of rest. The body weight exercises aim to get you up to your maximum heart rate.
Insanity at Soho Gyms
This class lasts either 30 or 45 minutes, and you can burn up to 1000 calories per session. Insanity aims to maximise the effects of the workout by giving you shorter rest periods so your heart rate remains high for longer.
Classes at Project Fit
This new City-based gym in London offers a range of high intensity fitness classes that last just 35 minutes, but work your whole body in that time so that you can burn up to 750 calories per session.
