Nicely Fit Co.

Two years ago today we closed the doors to our 3 month old gym, thinking we’d be closed for a few weeks, maybe a month. The reality was a little different - 6 months later we opened our doors to a new world. Small businesses like ours in the fitness space were hit incredibly hard by COVID shutdowns, and many of our competitors did not make it through. Despite all odds, our bootstrapped little gym not only survived, we thrived.

Two years later I write this in our new facility, almost twice the size of our original space - with a great view of midtown and the Queensboro bridge I might add. As folks make their way back out into the world, demand is the highest we’ve ever seen. There’s life and energy back on the streets of NYC, and we’re thrilled to be a part of it.

We have been incredibly fortunate to have an amazing group of clients who’ve supported us and put their trust in us from the start. Our families and friends have had our backs all along the way. We were even some of the lucky ones whose landlords were willing to accommodate.

I can’t stress enough how much of our success was due to luck and the goodwill of those around us.

With that all said, we’re growing like crazy and hanging on for the ride. If you want to know what we’re all about, come check us out! And if you or anyone you know is looking for work in the fitness world, we can use he help!

, aka High-Intensity Interval Training, is one form of exercise that sounds, well, INTENSE. 🔥 Before I started doing HIIT, I was intimidated but it became one of my favorite forms of exercise. Let's break it down so you feel comfortable taking on a HIIT class!

First of all, what is HIIT? It stands for High-Intensity Interval Training: A training technique where you use short bursts of energy, giving 100% to each exercise. The intervals of all-out energy immediately follow intervals of rest. Each working interval should leave you breathless, needing that interval of rest. HIIT is your solution if a lack of time to exercise is the biggest hindrance to creating a sustainable workout routine. It only requires 15-30 minutes and should only be done 2-3 times a week.

HIIT is quick: Quick intervals and a quick workout - but very effective. Training in this way gets your heart rate up and keeps it up. High-intensity exercise increases your body's need for oxygen, so while the workout itself may be short, your body will continue to need oxygen during your recovery. This ensures your body will continue to burn calories throughout the day, raise your metabolism, and burn fat. To learn more about the science behind this, check out the link in our blog.

The biggest reason I fell in love with HIIT and decided to create a class to share my passion for it is its ability for adaptation. When it comes to HIIT Me Up, adaptation is two-fold. First, EVERYONE is welcome, no matter your fitness level, your body, your gender, your age, or your reason for showing up. Throughout the class, I provide modifications to make each movement more accessible or more advanced. The beauty of HIIT is that it is simply about you giving your all with no comparison to the person next to you.

Second, no workout is the same. Your body will never get used to the same movement pattern. I love to incorporate Different movements, different workout structures, and even games (I know!) Not only does this keep our minds busy, but it lets us have some fun. If you're going to put 100% into something, have fun doing it! 

-Michelle

Happy everyone! First hike 🥾of the year in the books. What outdoor activities do you love to get you moving?
