The Original HIIT Workout
Barry’s combines science-backed intervals with the energy of the Red Room—low lights, loud music, and Instructors who know exactly when to push you.

Our workout splits time between weights on the floor (LIFT) and the treadmill (RUN) in the Red Room—where music, coaching, and energy stay dialed in.
WHAT TO EXPECT
Your First
Barry’s Workout
1. What to Expect:
Get to the studio 15 minutes before class. This gives us time to show you around, introduce you to your instructor, and help you get familiar with your Woodway treadmill and bench.
2. What to Bring:
We provide the towels and the premium amenities; you just bring the energy and a pair of supportive cross-training shoes.
3. Luxury Locker Rooms:
Lockers are available for your belongings, and most studios offer showers, towels, and getting-ready essentials like hair dryers and toiletries. Everything is designed to make it easy to fit Barry’s into your day—before work, after work, or anytime in between.
4. Your Pace, Your Race:
Our instructors will call out ranges for speed and incline, but you are always in control of your console. If you need to walk when the room is running, go for it—there is zero pressure here.
5. Fuel Up:
Visit the Fuel Bar before class to pre-order your protein shake. It’ll be waiting for you the moment you walk out of the Red Room so your recovery starts immediately.
