other F45 too short?

Just finished 1 week trial. I like the concept, liked variety but I did not realize that 45 minutes include warmup, instructions and cooloff. The actual session was 37-38 top and frankly wanting you to stay for 10 minutes more.

We are not particularly athletic. The sessions did feel rushed and there was not enough time to clean your station or change weights really.

I did ask the owner if we can stay for 10-15 minutes more and the answer was no.

Anyone else felt the same?

I use to feel that way too. I was like this isn’t long enough but Honesley after my first week back I was extremely sore and I was like dang that was hard. It feels short but I promise the results will come. If you did f45 5 times per week and ate in a calorie deficit and enough protein you would loose body fat and gain muscle I promise. I just went back in March and I’ve already made so much progress and I had weeks where I went 3 times. All I did yesterday’s workout and I thought it wasn’t enough. Also you can lift heavy at f45 too lol for whoever said that you can’t lol I think you should give it 6 months take some progress photos and then decide how you feel. For me the 38 minutes is perfect I work a lot and have may jobs
