What To Expect From A 1Rebel Rig Session
1Rebel’s Rig concept offers four stations combining cardio and strength training. On the cardio side, the Bike and Row stations use airbikes and concept 2 rowers to get you breathing hard and heavy.
The Rebel Bench station offers their signature dumbbell strength exercises, combined with the Rig station to round off the strength component, where you can expect bodyweight, kettlebell and pull up bar exercises.
Class types include Intensity, focusing on interval training; Engine, which is cardio-heavy; Strength, which focuses on building strength and power; Team, where you work with others to hit a common goal, and Benchmark, which is their monthly performance tracking class.
Find Rig at Hammersmith and High Street Kensington locations.
The Reception Service
Our pre-visit call to the branch was informative, with the friendly staff clearly explaining that the Rig class was no longer taught at the High Street Kensington branch, as well as other important information to do with the Ride classes that are taught at the location.
In branch, the service was satisfactory, with the basics covered but with little effort to connect beyond this.
The Class Experience
1Rebel High Street Kensington has achieved The Fit Guide 5-Star Class Experience award for an exceptional class, putting it amongst the best in London and the industry.
Our coach on the day was outstanding. He made a strong effort to really personalize the service and meaningfully connect with everyone. He was floating around the room to observe us from different angles, offering adjustments and advice where needed. His energy really fueled the atmosphere of the room, completing a true five-star experience.
