The Perfect Workout

Slow-motion strength training with the support and accountability of a personal trainer.

Campus Dr, Newport Beach

Trainer: Tyler Mathews

Today I sampled a new weightlifting gym, The Perfect Workout. One on One training sessions are 20 minutes of specific ‘time under tension’ sets of weightlifting on Nautilus machines…10 seconds contraction and 10 seconds of release, for at least 90 seconds of work until failure. The movement is designed to build muscle faster than typical movements. I was sore after just 20 minutes of work. Outstanding, quick workout!

I train 4x/wk at Kinetic!

I’ve been dong the Zone workouts for the past 15 years, and I love it! Kinetic workouts are 60 minutes of high-intensity (HIIT) circuits that change everyday. and are designed to work every muscle during the week. Burn 500–1000 calories during each of heart-rate monitored, team-based classes using highly-varied functional training equipment like ropes, TRX®, boxing, rowing, kettlebells and more. Designed to make the best use of time and effort, it’s the most efficient, results-based workout. I always wear the MyZone heart-monitor, so I always know my heart-rate, calories burned, etc.

And to complement functional training classes, they also offer indoor cycling, heavy bag boxing and yoga classes. Conveniently located across the street from Fashion Island in KINETIC at Newport Center.
