OHM Fitness Cary

OHM Fitness is coming to Cary, and I have had the opportunity to experience it the past 3 weeks in the form of pop-up. It is a cool and interesting concept of wearing EMPowered suits that deliver EMS (electro muscle stimulation) for a fun low-impact 25 minute session. The future studio is currently under construction, so the owners (Liz and Luis) are sharing OHM Fitness with Triangle residents via pop-ups until the permanent location is ready.

First timers are encouraged to arrive 15 minutes early to allow the team to prepare them for the experience and to give them the properly sized EMPowered suit which is like a scuba suit that goes from knees to elbow. The suits work "best" with direct skin contact, so people can go "commando" or opt to wear a thong to allow optimal contact with your glutes. The class is 25 minutes from warm up to peak to cool down and change exercises every 25 to 45 seconds. During the class the team will go around to each individual to make sure the suit has been optimized to each individual, which I think is very cool. each session has been unique, and the team will play music that motivates me even more. I like to push myself when I exercise for my own benefit, so I have increased the intensity over the past few weeks including Thanksgiving day. Each time I have left feeling energized and ready for another fun session in the near future (AKA tomorrow).

I really like this concept because it's fast easy, and I feel good before during and after which you can't always say when exercising. I will likely need to update this review once the permanent location opens, but until then I encourage anyone who would like to try this new and cool concept to get in touch with OHM FitnessCary and experience it for yourself!
