Metabolic Effect Workout Explained

Topics

If you're short on time or what to see results quickly then Metabolic Effect workouts might just be the thing for you. We asked instructor Steve Owen to explain how it all works (and he's even created a quick workout for you!)

St Michaels is the perfect balance

After 10 years of being a member and having been going to other gyms since I was 16 I can honestly say St Michaels for me just feels the perfect balance. 

The instructors are not only very experienced and approachable in what they teach they are also, very importantly, just so human. They make everyone feel so welcome and included .. that vibe is so important. Every member matters. 

Amanda Hewitt,
It's friendly, not intimidating and I get results!

Being a ‘member’ of St Michaels Health Club is more than the word suggests. You will find a community of like-minded people who just want to try their best to be consistent in their endeavours to keep as fit and healthy as they can. Fellow triers and the incredible team behind us at the club keep me motivated endlessly. The gym equipment and layout allows you to go your own way however I will say guidance is on hand easily.

Always you will be inspired and supported from both the team at the club and members alike. It’s friendly, I don’t feel intimidated and I’m getting results!

I've made lots of friends

I’ve been a member of St Michaels for over 2 years and absolutely love it. Mainly doing classes, I invested in a PT session and now have a bespoke gym programme which I really enjoy. The range of classes is phenomenal and I do everything from spin to strength & conditioning to body combat, fascia release, body balance and yoga. The fact that body balance and yoga are held outside during the summer months is an extra bonus; yoga on Gylly beach is just sublime! I really like the fact that I am challenged in the classes and the standard of training is the best that I have encountered. 

I’ve made lots of friends as everyone is so friendly. Changing areas are fab and the ability to have a post class shower is the icing on the cake!

Elizabeth Francis,
The wellness membership offers everything I need

As a longstanding member of St Michaels, I continue to choose to train and relax here due to the club's friendly and knowledgeable staff, both at the health club reception and those who take fitness classes. The proximity of the facilities to Gyllyngvase beach is a huge plus, as I swim and train in the sea as much as I can. Outdoor classes are a great idea and I find running and exercising near the coast uplifting. For me, the wellness membership offers everything I need to balance treating myself to time in the spa, staying motivated to become stronger and fitter with Lauren's personal training, plus gym sessions and classes and regular use of the sauna and steam rooms to wind down and catch up with friends. The club is an important part of my life.

Combine body weight compound exercises in sequences to promote muscular and core strength balance in your body and give you the maximal metabolic effect.

What is Metabolic Effect and how does it work?

ME training is a unique type of exercise utilizing multiple joint movements and full body exercises to create a “ripple effect” on the metabolism. ME training provides results in less time by:

Using full body exercises so you burn maximum calories in minimum time

Generating the correct intensity to release hormones for fat burning.

Creating an increased metabolism that lasts hours and even days after exercise (the metabolic “ripple” effect)

Adding fat burning “machinery” to the body so you can burn more calories at rest.

Using exercises that develop enhanced body function and increased fitness

Constantly changing the workout so the body never knows what’s coming

Try combining these two beauties! Ratio 1:2

Pull Up and Squat
