‘Scalable’ refers to matching the ability for athletes to adapt the workout or exercise depending on their abilities, ensuring it is a safe environment for them to train in.

What should I expect in my first session?

During each session, the coach will guide the class through a warm-up consisting of a run/row and mobility exercises.
