Bench Burn
An intense workout that increases fat burning and muscle endurance with high-tempo exercises on a bench.
Bench Burn is an intense 30-minute fat-burning class that combines high-tempo strength and cardio movements on a step/bench platform. With the 07:15 morning session at O’Hiit Studio, it gives you an energetic start to the day.
Class structure: a short dynamic warm-up, a lower-body series on the bench (step-up, Bulgarian split squat, box jump), an upper-body and core series (incline push-up, dips, mountain climber), an interval finisher and stretching.
With its short duration and high intensity, Bench Burn is the favourite morning class of our members who want to train before work.

For first-timers
- Since it is a morning class, don't skip the warm-up; your joints are cold.
- Step-up instead of box jump is always a valid alternative.
- Arriving at 07:05 for the 07:15 class lets you settle in without disrupting the flow.
