FAQ

  • Men and women of all fitness levels can benefit from training at Core CLE. The low impact nature of the Megaformer minimizes unnecessary stress on your joints and makes it perfect for those who may be rehabbing injuries. Don't get us wrong, the workout is nothing short of intense! There will be an initial adjusment period, but trust us, stick with it and the results will speak for themselves!​

    YES!

  • Lagree Fitness is a full-body, HIIT alternative workout. While the Lagree Method embodies elements of Pilates, IT IS NOT! It’s athletic, fast-paced and intense, while incorporating low impact, controlled movements. The Lagree Method is an unparalleled full-body workout targeting all elements of physical fitness: strength, cardio, balance, endurance, body composition and flexibility in each 45 minute session.​

  • The Megaformer was inspired from the Pilates reformer more than a decade ago, and has significantly evolved and advanced into a multi-functional strength training machine. The Megaformer allows for more intensity and has a much broader range of applications than the Reformer. The Mega has double the amount of springs than the Reformer, creating more resistance and allowing for maximum intensity for even the strongest participant. It also has many more options than the Reformer for adjusting the angle of movement, targeting different muscle groups. This gives the Megaformer access to hundreds of exercise combinations. The exercises performed on the patented Megaformer simply cannot be performed on the Reformer. Making each workout comprehensive and full-body, while increasing the heart rate and stimulating more fat and calories burned per session.

  • Mega classes are 45 minutes long. Trust us. It’s plenty.​

  • Yay! Welcome to Core CLE! Please sign up for class by clicking "Schedule/Account" in the navigation bar. Plan to arrive 10 minutes prior to the start of class for a quick orientation and studio tour. New workouts can be intimidating- we promise the Megaformers don’t bite and we’re happy you're here! If you do not arrive at least 10 minutes prior to the start of class and the instructor feels there is not adequate time to explain the machine / workout, you will not be permitted to take the class. The class will be credited back into your account to reschedule for another time. This is for your safety! You will need a pair of grip socks for the Mega. If you do not have a pair, they're available for purchase at the studio.​

  • Our signature Mega classes are made for and welcome all fitness levels. So, you're welcome to just jump right in and take a class (for your first class plan to arrive 10 minutes prior to the start of class)! Our classes are team-oriented and motivating, and our encouraging atmosphere guarantees optimal fitness results. Core CLE is an intense workout that will bring your muscles to failure, and your last few seconds in each exercise should be a struggle! If you have any questions just give us a shout 440-688-1700.​

  • If you can hold a plank for 45 seconds, you’ll do great! We believe no other activity will help you get back into shape faster or with less chance of injury than Core CLE. Our classes are definitely challenging, however there are modifications to decrease the intensity of almost every exercise. Your instructor will show you how to level down during class, if necessary.​

  • YES! We are an athlete's workout. If you don't like a challenge, this workout is probably not for you! Our method focuses on slow-twitch muscle fibers and pushing them to failure while under constant tension. You’ll feel an intensity like you never have before! We get excited when we see you shakin' and quakin', so don't be surprised if you get a shout out during class!​

  • Running: Core CLE will build core and overall strength, improving pace and aiding in injury prevention. Think of it as an insurance policy!

    Yoga: Core CLE targets muscles rarely recruited in asana while being mindful.

    Boutique Fitness Enthusiasts: Core CLE enlists slow twitch muscle fibers increasing endurance levels.

  • Calories burned will depend on your weight, height and fitness level. Clients can burn anywhere from 150-700 calories! Other than calories burned, the true benefits of strength workouts like Core CLE come from increasing lean muscle mass. When you add muscle you get stronger, your heart works better, your immune system works better, your metabolism increases dramatically and you burn fat more effectively.​

  • It depends on your fitness regimen. If you are very active and want to supplement your routine with Core CLE, 2-3 classes a week will ensure that you maintain the neuromuscular connections that build your strength, endurance, balance and flexibility. When you drop-in once in awhile, it's as if you are starting from scratch every time. If Core CLE is your main source of fitness, we recommend taking class 3-5 times a week. Your mind-muscle connection will be constantly fired up and you'll be amazed at how fast you'll see results. You'll burn fat, increase flexibility and balance, jump-start your metabolism, strengthen your entire body and ultimately, be in the best shape of your life. When you start taking classes more than 5 times a week, you may not be getting enough rest and recovery. Core CLE will work your muscles to the point of fatigue, so your body will need rest and TLC. Relax and let your body do it's thing. A good indicator of working out too much is feeling super tired, getting injured and/or getting sick more often. Working out without enough rest can cause damage and inflammation to every region in your body, from your cells to your organs. Take your rest as seriously as your training!​

  • Some of our clients tell us they see results and feel stronger after just 2 to 3 classes, WOW! You will notice change taking class 2 to 3 times per week; others will notice the change taking 3 to 5 classes per week! For optimal results we recommend taking 3 to 5 classes per week.

  • Our workout does not require you to start with private sessions, as the classes are designed to work in a group setting. Beginners may find their first class confusing, but don’t be discouraged. It takes about 10 classes to gain the comfort level associated with a better understanding of the workout. Each class is designed to accommodate all fitness levels. Your instructor will introduce you to the Machine and discuss any potential limitations you might have before the class begins. Our classes are small, so you’ll receive a lot of personal attention during your workout. Modifications are possible for almost every exercise, to suit your current fitness level. However, if you have chronic back pain, painful joints or a severe medical condition, we advise consulting with your doctor before starting a new fitness program.​

  • YES! We welcome drop-ins. Our Mega drop-in rate is $35. If you walk-in to your first class without creating an online account, the instructor will ask you to create an online account before class begins. We STRONGLY recommend online sign-up through our Core CLE website whenever possible. If you walk-in we cannot guarantee a spot will be available in class.​

  • Your strong self..preferably in snug, breathable clothing with an open mind! Come prepared with a water bottle (you can fill it up at our water station), towel, and grip socks for the Mega, they are required for safety and sanitary reasons. Please do not wear strong scents or lotions...some are allergic. Silence cell phones and leave all jewelry / valuables at home.​

  • We recommend having a small snack 30-45 minutes before working out, such as an apple, a banana, or a handful of nuts. Eating before your workout will help keep your energy level high and help burn more fat rather than muscle. After your workout, we suggest you eat some protein within 45 minutes, which helps aid muscle recovery.​

  • Yes, even if it’s your first time. Due to the limited number of spaces available for each class. All classes require a 12 hour cancellation notice. Although we know life happens and things come up, there are no exceptions to our cancellation policy. As we have a limited amount of space available per class, the policy is in place to encourage members to make schedule changes in a timely manner, and to ensure that there are machines available as needed. Last minute schedule changes prevent others from having the opportunity to sign up. It also helps to motivate you to stick to your scheduled workout.

    Phone calls, texts, emails, and social media messages are not acceptable forms of canceling.

    Please cancel through your Core CLE app or your account online within the required timeline to avoid fees.

  • Yes! It is very important to arrive on time, to respect other members and your instructor. Very often when classes are full, clients will drop in to see if someone doesn’t show, allowing them a space in an otherwise full session. If you arrive late and are not present 3 minutes before class start time, your space may be given to someone who is waiting. There is no grace period in this situation. To avoid this situation, arrive at least 5 minutes before class. We realize life happens, please do your best to plan for traffic, weather, parking, etc...so you are not disappointed when you arrive late and someone else is on the machine you reserved.

  • Unfortunately, due to space constraints, we do not have showers or lockers in our studio. Please do not bring valuables into the studio, Core CLE is not liable for lost belongings.

  • Core CLE is not intended to be rehabilitative. Though there are certain rehabilitative-like benefits, such as increased flexibility and improved posture, the workout is intended for healthy individuals, cleared for exercise by their doctor. Should you have any specific needs or injuries please contact us before your first class.

  • If you are pregnant and new to Core CLE, we do not advise starting our classes. However, if you’ve been regularly attending classes at Core CLE (min. 3 consecutive months) you may continue with prior consent from your doctor. As always, consult your physician before starting any new exercise plan.
