  • Got to agree with this. [Edit: Agreeing with Hell_Flower] These are my two regular classes and I think they work really well together. Combat is great cardio and I can see the difference pump makes to tone.
  • The customer service from Fitbit is amazing - I lost my One and they replaced it, free of charge, within a week which I thought was pretty awesome of them. I am happy with my One, but I will probably go for a Flex if I have to buy another in the furture - mainly because I'd never really have to take it off and so wouldn't…
  • I'm pretty new to the gym too.

  • ^ Agreed, it is fairly low intensity. The weight of the poi is pretty light and there isn't normally any impact from jumping or footwork. I know I can break a light sweat after a while and sometimes my muscles feel the work if I've been repeating a new move, but generally, low intensity dance should cover it.
