The Numbers Behind the Workout: Your Exact Calorie Burn in a Fit Factory Fitness

Whether your goal is to burn fat, gain muscle, or maintain a certain body type, there are benefits to knowing how many calories your body uses when you perform daily activities and workouts.
At Fit Factory Fitness, we offer a variety of online and in-studio classes to help you achieve your fitness goals in a fun and engaging environment. Whether you’re a beginner taking the first step to getting into shape or an intermediate fitness buff looking to build muscle or burn fat, you’ll find a class that’s right for you. Keep reading to learn how many calories you can burn in a Fit Factory Fitness class.

Calories Burnt for Men: 800 to 1200
Calories Burnt for Women: 500 to 800

Our boxing classes are another one of our intense classes meant to burn fat and build endurance. Each 50-minute class involves high endurance and cardio training and low strength training. Take this class only if you’re prepared to give 110 percent and want to learn how to throw a good punch.
Boxing classes turn into a non-stop fist-pumping party room in every session we host. You’ll be starting off with our heavy-duty teardrop-style Aqua Training Bags, where you’ll learn how to throw a proper jab, cross, and hook before moving onto individual and partner drills
Athletic Conditioning
Class Duration: 50 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 800 to 1200
Calories Burnt for Women: 500 to 800

Our Athletic Conditioning classes are meant for intense fitness fanatics who want to train like professional athletes. In just 50 minutes, your endurance and cardio are pushed to their limits, followed by mid-high strength training to build your muscles and tone your body.
We require everyone in Athletic Classes to give it their all. Each class is purely HIIT – which means keeping up with every one of our intense exercises. This is meant to impact your strength, explosiveness, agility, balance, and reaction time, so it’s definitely not for the faint of heart.
Strength
Class Duration: 60 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 700 to 1000
Calories Burnt for Women: 450 to 700

Ready to enhance your muscle definition and build up your strength? Our Strength class is an intermediate program that focuses less on cardio and endurance and more on strength training. Each 60-minute session consists of a medley of equipment and exercises designed to build up muscles throughout your body.
Our Strength classes are a good intermediate course for those looking for all-around strength and muscle-building programs. You’ll be using a variety of equipment to move, shake, and enhance your gains. Expect core, lower- and upper-body resistance exercises that focus on your major muscle groups. Our instructors will also teach you proper form and technique to ensure you’re building muscles effectively and maximizing your potential results.
Lower Combat
Class Duration: 60 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 700 to 1000
Calories Burnt for Women: 450 to 700
What to Expect
If your ideal body is just a firm booty and a pair of toned legs away from becoming a reality, then the Lower Combat classes are perfect for you. It has the same level of focus as the regular Strength classes – less on cardio and endurance and more on strength training – but focused exclusively on your lower-body muscle groups.
Each 60-minute session is an intense lower-body workout focusing on your butt and legs. Sculpting your lower body can be a challenge, so get ready to feel the burn as you tone and build to your limit. Indoor running shoes are required for this class.
Abs Assault
Class Duration: 45 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 525 to 750
Calories Burnt for Women: 350 to 575
What to Expect
The Ab Assault classes are 45-minute workout sessions for the person who wants to develop a well-defined set of abs. Although it’s slightly easier than our other strength and muscle-building classes and involves low levels of endurance, cardio, and strength, it’s still an intense class designed to enhance your core muscles through various techniques.
In our Ab Assault classes, you’ll be subjected to exercises that focus on your abdominals, obliques, and back muscles. By the end of every class, you’ll learn how to reduce your chances of plateauing and maximizing your results. Indoor running shoes are mandatory for this class.
Technical Boxing
Class Duration: 60 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 700 to 1000
Calories Burnt for Women: 450 to 700

Expect to workout with punching bags, interval training, and traditional boxing drills at a less intense pace. We recommend attending multiple sessions as we’ll be building up on those skills as we go. Be sure to bring your hand wraps and indoor running shoes. You can rent boxing gloves from us or bring your own pair.
New Recruit
Class Duration: 60 minutes
Calories Burnt for Men: 525 to 750
Calories Burnt for Women: 350 to 575

Intro Boxing
Class Duration: 60 minutes

- Correct footwork and body movement
- How to hit a punching bag and focus mitts correctly with precision
Combined, these skills will help you as you progress into technical boxing and later on boxing for fat burning and endurance. Knowing the basics can help you perform your best, especially for the high-intensity workouts that await you.

Calories, Fitness, and You
While there are many ways to get into shape, many have found calorie counting to be a good way to reach their fitness goals. But keep in mind that there’s no guarantee that you’ll be burning the max number of calories in any class you choose, as there are plenty of factors like age, metabolism, and biological sex that can affect how many calories your body burns.
Another important thing to remember is that working out is only half the battle of attaining your fitness goals. A healthy diet can help you achieve the body you want. It’s never a good idea to starve yourself, so make sure you’re eating the right number of calories per day: Around 2,000 calories for women and 2,500 for men.
Finally, consider your lifestyle as another factor that can affect your health and fitness. Outside of the gym, leading an active lifestyle at home can help you continue to burn calories. Something to take note of if your fitness goals include fat burning and weight loss.
