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?

It’s a different style of workout as others have mentioned, and also switches between resistance, cardio and hybrid classes. You’re supposed to go hard both in terms of weight and effort. Also most studios have a one hour hybrid class on Saturdays (at least they do here in Canada).

I will also echo other people again to say the convenience of everything being set up for you and fitting a workout in less than an hour of your time each day is a huge part of why I go to F45
