Let’s Get Fit

Barry’s

Where: 2920 NE 207th St., Suite 105, Aventura

What: It’s all about the aptly named Red Room at Barry’s. Top-flight instructors get your heart pumping on the treadmill and focus on different muscle groups during strength training, amid rhythmic beats and, yes, red lights, during a balanced workout session that lasts roughly an hour—and that burns upward of 1,000 calories.

Body20

Where: Locations in Delray Beach, Boca Raton (3), Fort Lauderdale and Pinecrest

What: Thanks to advanced technology, Body20 packs the benefits of a two-hour fitness routine into 20 minutes. The boutique studios deliver customized one-on-one training that incorporates an electro-muscle stimulation suit. The targeted stimulation, according to Body20, produces some 150 times more muscle contractions than a typical workout.

Sol Yoga

Where: 835 NE Second Ave., Fort Lauderdale; 48 NW 25th St., Suite 104, Miami

What: Feel the burn, and the bliss, at the franchise founded by Cathy DeFrancesco.

Equinox

Where: Locations in Aventura, Brickell, Coral Gables, and South Beach

The Office

Where: 5907 NE 27th Ave., Fort Lauderdale

What: Owner Jamie Maitland and her instructors push you to the limit with group classes designed to “maintain the perfect balance of consistency and confusion for your muscles.” In layman’s terms, that means you’re in for exhilarating sessions that use boxing heavy bags, ballet barre, light weights and heavy weights and more, all complemented by mood lighting and pulsating music.
