What Makes Fitclub's HIIT Classes Different
Not all group fitness classes are created equal. At Fitclub, our approach to HIIT training is rooted in education, community, and proven exercise science.

What sets our HIIT classes apart from other options in the Hendersonville area:
- 30 minutes or less per session, including warm-up and workout, so you can fit training into even the busiest schedule
- Modifications provided for every exercise, ensuring that beginners and advanced members train side by side with equal effectiveness

- A supportive community atmosphere where members encourage one another and celebrate progress together
- Classes for ages 5 and up, making Fitclub a place where the entire family can train
Our trainers bring a combination of education, athletic background, and genuine care for every member who walks through the door. Junior Vargus leads afternoon classes Monday through Friday, and Brooke Ballard leads Saturday morning sessions at 8 AM. Each trainer shares a passion for helping others and a willingness to go the extra mile for your success.
Understanding High Intensity Interval Training
High intensity interval training, or HIIT, alternates between short bursts of intense exercise and brief recovery periods. This training method has become one of the most popular and well-researched approaches to fitness for good reason.
The benefits of HIIT training include:
- Improved cardiovascular health through challenging your heart rate in controlled intervals
- Increased calorie burn both during and after your workout, thanks to the metabolic demand of interval training
- Greater muscle endurance and functional strength from movements that translate to real-world activities
- Time efficiency that delivers results comparable to longer, moderate-intensity workouts
- Adaptability that allows beginners to work at their own pace while experienced exercisers push their limits in the same session

Class Schedule: Morning and Evening Options
One of the biggest obstacles to sticking with a fitness routine is finding class times that work around your life. Fitclub offers group fitness classes at times designed for early risers, working professionals, parents, and students.
We have morning and evening classes, typically between 5am and 9am, and 4pm to 5:30pm. Please visit our classes page for specific times. Many members prefer early morning classes to start their day with energy and focus, while others find that evening sessions help them decompress after work.
Who Our HIIT Classes Are For
Fitclub's group fitness classes serve a wide range of people from across the Hendersonville and Flat Rock communities. You do not need to be in great shape to start. You just need to show up.
Beginners
If you have never tried HIIT before, or if you are new to working out entirely, our classes are built with you in mind. Every exercise includes a modification so that you can build strength and confidence at your own pace. Our trainers pay close attention to form and will guide you through each movement to make sure you are training safely.
Experienced Athletes
If you have been training for years and want a class that still challenges you, our HIIT programming delivers. The interval-based structure means you control your own intensity. Push harder during work intervals, use heavier weights, or increase your range of motion to scale up.
Families
Fitclub offers classes for ages 5 and up, which means parents and kids can train in the same environment. Physical fitness at any age builds self-confidence, discipline, and healthy habits that last a lifetime.
Busy Professionals
With sessions that clock in at 30 minutes or less, our HIIT classes are designed for people who do not have hours to spend at the gym. You get a full-body workout in a fraction of the time, which makes it easier to stay consistent even during the busiest weeks.
Beyond the Class: Complete Fitness Support
HIIT classes are the foundation of the Fitclub experience, but they are not the only way we support your fitness goals. Our facility also offers additional programs to complement your training.
Open Gym
Need extra time to work on specific skills, practice lifts, or simply get in an additional workout? Our open gym hours are available Monday through Friday from 12 PM to 2 PM and Saturday through Sunday from 8 AM to 10 AM.
