FAQ
Our FAQ will help you to find all the answers to your ALPHA31-related questions.
ALPHA31 is a high-end boutique gym. We offer three types of 45-minute full-body workout sessions – Reset, Ignite and Strength. These are all uniquely designed in experience and outcome, intelligently integrating rowing and other impactful routines.
To make sure that your studio visit is pleasant and as rewarding as possible, we kindly ask you to adhere to the following guidelines:
α: Respect your ALPHA team members.
α: Once you’re inside our studio, set your phone to silent. Need to make a phone call or receive an emergency call? Feel free to leave your phone at the front desk and please keep your voice to a minimum.
α: Conversing with other participants during an exercise session is not recommended as it may be distracting to others. You can always catch up before or after a session in our comfortable lounge in the lobby.
α: We recommend seeing through your class until the end. Leaving early may be disturbing for others and it’s also a hindrance to your overall fitness results.
We offer three kinds of workout sessions – ALPHA RESET, ALPHA IGNITE and ALPHA STRENGTH. You can discover everything about each workout session on our classes page.
There is a save phone storage system on your Skillrow.
ALPHA31 sessions are supported with real-time, tech-enhanced personal fitness insights, which will be shown to you during your workout session to maximize performance.
During your workout session, we will be using the Skillrow and a workout mat. Depending upon your chosen class, we also integrate dumbbells, sandbags, elastics, Pilates balls, and hip bands.
In a nutshell, rowing enables us to maximize your fitness results through the following:
– Activate the total body
– 85% of your muscles are active.
– Burn up to 800 – 1000 calories per session.
– Improve your posture.
– Improve endurance with high intensity.
– Avoid stress on your joints through low-impact movement.
Depending on the class you have chosen, the rowing interval will repeat three or four times for four to seven minutes.
Low, medium and high resistance options help to improve power, while speed levels from 1 to 10 focus on cardiovascular health (heart and lung function). For more information about the Skillrow check this link.
Our workout sessions cater to all, varying from low intensity (α Reset) to high intensity (α Ignite & Strength). We encourage you to discover more about each class and to tackle each session at your own pace. Our instructors are always there to guide you.
In most cases, yes. But, always listen to your body, adjusting the intensity of your workout to suit, while avoiding uncomfortable positions. If there is any doubt, contact your GP to evaluate your condition.
