Chalkboard

Vivienne and Vanessa took the fitness industry by storm when they opened H-Kore in 2011. A fitness regimen loved by the likes of Jennifer Aniston and Meghan Markle, Lagree Fitness is a high-intensity, low-impact workout adaptable to all fitness levels. The duo fell in love with the Lagree method while in London and decided to bring it to Hong Kong when they found themselves falling out of shape and missing the workout. As co-founder of the city’s first and only Lagree Fitness Studio, Mexico-born Vanessa is also a Lagree certified instructor who can be found at H-Kore’s locations in Central and Quarry Bay.

The best part about this intense full-body workout is that it is easy on the joints, which is particularly important postpartum (because ligaments and tendons are more supple than usual). A 45-minute session will get your heart pumping, make you stronger and stretch you like a yogi!

Tackling strength, cardio and flexibility all at once, the MegaKore class at H-Kore is no easy feat. At first glance, the Megaformer looks a lot like a medieval torture device (it certainly feels like one, too) but don’t let it put you off giving it a go. The weighted springs, hanging straps, pulleys are there to provide adjustable resistance and a broad range of exercise variations for a high-intensity, low-impact workout. The most brutal part of the workout is moving in a slow pace and holding each pose for at least four counts – the shake is what you’re after, whether you like it or not.
