O44 FAQs
What is O44?
-At O44 Method we strongly believe that exercise is only one part of Wellbeing and that Whole Health encompasses: Body (Food + Exercise), Mind + Spirit, Family + Relationships and Work. O44 serves to Empower YOU with Tools, Facts and Community to better enhance your lifelong journey!
What are the O44 Methods?
-The O44 METHODS are comprised of two different formats that are extremely effective and efficient Whole Health Workouts. The program combines the best facets of Barre, Strength Conditioning and Cardio Centric movements (high & low impact) while concluding with Stretch + Mindfulness, allowing you to achieve optimal results for both body and mind in every 44ish-minute session.
What can I expect from an O44 session?
-O44 fuses the best facets of Barre, Pilates, Athletic Conditioning, Plyometrics and old-school Step Aerobics. It blends both large range dynamic movements and small isometric callanetics while integrating heavier resistance utilizing the proprietary O44 BOX . Cardio circuits break up the strength segments and can be done either Low or High-Impact, often on the O44 BOX. Every class ends with a Mindfulness/Breathing/Meditation - to help recenter, reconnect and realign with not only yourself but your community.
What is the O44 Box?
-The O44 BOX when sitting horizontally, allows for Plyometrics, Cardio and General Conditioning. When flipped, the O44 BOX stands vertically and is free-standing, allowing for endless strength exercises. The In-Studio Resistance Wall is now around the outside of the O44 BOX creating a simple way to integrate resistance into every movement.
Do I need the O44 Box/ any other equipment?
- Many of the O44 workouts are created with use of the box in mind. That being said, these workouts are do-able without the box. However, the box helps to add many elements to your workout, including both cardio and resistance. The majority of the workouts use hand weights, ankle weights, resistance bands, a mat and a pilates ball.
