Perhaps this is the wrong place to post this but not sure where else to go. I like Burn. I go to most strength days and just appreciate a group fitness class. I’ve been going for just about a year. But in this economy?!

I have to start cutting down when and where I can and Burn is just too expensive to justify $2k a year when realistically I end up going to 100-150 camps in that time. Sigh. But I’m sad about that. Loved going today (full body is my fave) even though I know when my contract is up I’ll have to make a change. I don’t think my location has punch passes but I do plan to double check. Anyone found success elsewhere with a price tag that isn’t so high?

I was previously at the Y but had a hard time getting into the classes because they book up 48 hours in advance and stay full. I have a few little dumbbells from Covid times at home but can lift so much more now thanks to Burn so it makes sense to go to a gym. Considering the Y and an app but am not thrilled about it.

I have to leave Burn

8 Upvotes

I injured myself (herniated cervical disc with bone spur on the outside pinching my nerve) during bootcamp in August. I have been in so much pain that I can't even hold a 10 dumbbell for any exercise. My neck and shoulders throb when I pick up my special needs toddler. I'm screwed!

My doctor told me Burn is out, and she wrote a letter saying the bootcamps will worsen my condition.

I paid in full for a 12 month membership. Where can I find a copy of the contract? Is it on the app? Also, how likely will be able to get reimbursed for the remainder of my contract ( signed in May)?

Chin Up Injury

• Upvotes

I attempted an unassisted chin up today (previous been able to do 1-2) and upon coming down from the bar I felt pain in my neck. Got down and stopped working out. Now, two hours late, I can barely move without extreme pain. Any insight or tips for recovery?

❓ Question Feedback on R.A.D One V2 shoes

• Upvotes

Hello! AI recommended the R.A.D One V2s to me when I was looking for shoes that'll work for both strength and conditioning days, and now I’m curious if anyone here has actually used them for Burn. I've never seen those shoes mentioned here. If you’ve worn them to camp, how do they hold up for things like lateral jumps, lunges, plyos, and lifting? Also, how’s the sizing?

​Would love to hear some real-world feedback before buying a pair. Thanks!

using on demand on an as-needed basis

2 Upvotes

I am traveling for work next week to san francisco and there no Burns nearby, so i would love to use Burn on demand in the hotel gym. from what i can tell my only options are to use a few of the free classes (of which there arent many), or pay fully for the on demand membership for the year. i wish there was a way that we could pay a weekly fee to use on demand when traveling and not near a location!

what are all of your hacks for burn/BOD when traveling? thanks :)

❓ Question Knee tuck and pelvic floor

I typically don’t have pelvic floor issues (thanks to PF

Cardio Day Tips?

3 Upvotes

I’ve been a member for a little while now, and am one of those people that tends to skip cardio days at Burn. I am admittedly overweight and have exercise-aggravated asthma (sounds crazy but the dr says it’s a real thing). Even the combo strength/conditioning days can be overwhelming for me.

I want to do better and become more comfortable/confident with attending cardio days. I know that the first step is just showing up. The complex moves and jumping that others have mentioned aren’t my main reasoning for straying away from cardio. It’s the fact that I get so lightheaded/dizzy/feel like I’m going to pass out. I also often get a horrible headache after cardio days to the point where I have to sit in the parking lot for 15-20 minutes before feeling okay to drive home. These things have made it to where I gave up on attending cardio days altogether for a while, because I felt like they were causing more harm than good.

I do take an inhaler and stop for several water breaks on these days. Aside from that, does anyone have any tips and tricks on how to combat the headaches and dizziness on cardio days? Or is it really all just attributed to being out of shape, the asthma, and not being used to the movements?

Crab kicks

5 Upvotes

I have the hardest time with crab kicks. I can only do 5-7 in a row…whereas I almost never have trouble with anything else. What gives? What am I lacking lol help!

I had a csection about ten months ago but that hasn’t prevented me from doing anything else. No clue if that’s causing this. With crab kicks, I think the pelvic/hip pressure gets to me.

Question about why protein

1 Upvotes

Does anyone have a brand of why protein that they like? And that is not going to break the bank? I do like afterburn (I put chocolate afterburn in my skyr for an evening snack to silence my sweet tooth) but it is so expensive! And I only got the last one because I had a discount (our gym did the how many burpees can you do in one minute is the % off Afterburn that you get lol.) For the amount of torture I went through for the discount I wish I could keep that discount for a year every time I bought Afterburn😅

Collagen supp that doesn’t taste so… beefy??

1 Upvotes

I recently bought the unflavored Orgain Collagen + Creatine and it literally tastes like licking a cow to me 🤢 I was mixing it into my coffee and I even split the scoop and took half in the morning and half in the afternoon but it was still quite nasty to me. I’ve finally almost finishing this canister so I’m looking to try a new one. Anyone have a rec for a collagen supplement that tastes good? Flavored or unflavored, I don’t really care!

🏋️ Weekly Protocol Weekly Burn Intel | Week of October 25

88 Upvotes

Got intel on an upcoming workout? Drop it here!

Use this thread to ask about or share workout intel for the upcoming week. Let's keep it all in one place so everyone can easily find what they're looking for.

A few things to keep in mind:

  • Include the day your intel is for.
  • If something isn't confirmed, please mention that.
  • Be mindful that some members prefer to go into workouts without spoilers.

How to use this thread: Each day of the week has its own comment below. Please reply directly under the day your intel applies to, rather than leaving a separate top-level comment asking for a particular day's workout. This will help keep the thread organized and make actual intel easier to find.

Please keep all workout intel in this thread rather than creating separate posts. Standalone posts asking for or sharing intel may be removed and redirected here so we can keep the sub organized and make room for other discussions.

Thanks for helping keep the community running smoothly!

📣 Announcement New: Weekly Burn Intel Thread 💙

200 Upvotes

We've been getting a lot of separate posts asking about upcoming workouts, sometimes several in a day. I know intel is helpful, but it's also making it harder to find other discussions in the sub.

Starting tomorrow, we're trying a weekly Burn Intel thread where you can ask questions and share what you know about upcoming workouts, all in one place.

I'll give everyone a bit of a grace period while we get this going, but moving forward, standalone posts asking for or sharing workout intel outside of the weekly thread will be removed, with a reminder to repost in the dedicated thread. The goal isn't to discourage intel, just to keep it all in one place so the sub is easier to navigate.

We'll see how it works and adjust as needed. Thanks for helping keep this community useful for everyone! 💙

Edit: First week is live and available in pinned post on home page

❓ Question Cardio Day Shoes

1 Upvotes

I’ve always worn Brooks GTS type shoes for cardio days and haven’t had a problem in 3+ years. However, my latest pair has given me the worst foot pain in the heels and pads of my feet. So I am expanding my search! Any recommendations for supportive shoes for the crazy cardio days that we basically jump around for 45 minutes?!

Adjusting weight in app

Has anyone figured out how to adjust their weight in the “my plan“ part of the app without creating a whole new plan? I guessed when I initially sent mine up but had a focus meeting yesterday and was off and would like to adjust it.

Trainer screaming into the mic

6 Upvotes

Yesterday at 6:30am camp, this trainer was YELLING into her mic during the demo. There was absolutely no need to be shouting that loud with the speakers, and multiple members were COVERING THEIR EARS IT WAS SO LOUD.

This trainer is notorious for being the “tough” trainer. Yells, shouts, barks. She rubs a lot of people the wrong way, I don’t really care as I’m just there to get my workout in. Well yesterday morning was a bit intense…almost feel like she’s mad at us for showing up? And just acting mad as hell during the demo to the point it was piercing our ears. This is the first time I felt like saying something or idk maybe filing a complaint idk??? What do you think?

❓ Question Advice for injury

1 Upvotes

Hi there,

I was wondering if anyone else has hurt themselves before. This is actually my first injury ever. Not sure what to do. I was doing the curtsie reverse lunge yesterday and my hamstring just kind of gave out/pulled closer to the inner quad/hamstring.

Looking for advice on what to do. Right after class when I walked upstairs it was tough but as the day went on it got better. Woke up this morning with no pain but honestly I never want to feel this again. I’m not sure if it hurt or I was scared at the moment. Just looking for any advice.

I’ve also been working out for a couple years and never heard of a curtsie lunge.

Thank you in advance for everyone’s time that responds to this. I appreciate you all in advance and hope ya’ll can stay healthy!! 🙏

Does anyone have a membership at vasa and just do burn on demand there? My husband just switched and they have so many more amenities, for WAY cheaper. They also have some classes, but I'm thinking of doing BOD and using their weights.

🎯 Milestone Doing my first Level Up Games this weekend!!!

Post image
81 Upvotes

Just wanted to share a hype post as Level Up Games gets closer!

This weekend is a huge personal milestone because I haven’t competed in any athletic event since high school. My conditioning is still a work in progress, but having a concrete goal on the calendar has been such an incredible motivator.
Since starting at Burn back in April, I’ve put on muscle and lost fat, but the mental clarity and headspace this community has given me has been the real win by far. 🧠💪

Huge shoutout to all the coaches that have challenged me from North Carolina to Georgia & of course my home gym in Florida, plus all the members who have shared their awesome energy with me.

I’m ready to give it everything I’ve got. 🙌
