the LAGREE method
Focusing on core, strength, and endurance, Lagree is a high-intensity, low-impact, anti-inflammatory exercise method that tightens, strengthens, and tones in as little as 20-minutes a session by incorporating bodybuilding principles and movements that incorporate up to 600 muscles at once. Created by Sebastien Lagree for his model and acting clients in LA, the Lagree Method is extremely time-efficient for those looking for quick, long-lasting results.
Effective SEQUENCE
With the Lagree Method, the orchestration of exercise is paramount to the effectiveness of the training. Our instructors will put you through the correct sequence of exercises which is critical for optimizing the method.
EFFECTIVE RESISTANCE
The Lagree Method utilizes two types of resistance: Variable and Isometric. Variable (springs) eases the tension on connective tissues. Isometric, or the “holds”, guarantees serious muscle burn and what we refer to as “The Lagree shakes.” Both types protect the joints.

Effective form
We can’t stress this enough—good form is essential! It’s all about nailing the basics to get the most out of your workout while keeping injuries at bay.
EFFECTIVE TEMPO
Embrace the slow. Holding those movements longer builds serious strength and endurance, making every second count. Our instructors will start with a paced, four-count base for each exercise.
EFFECTIVE TRANSITION
We aim for as little transition time as possible between exercises, creating sequences that balance pushing, pulling, and stabilizing movements. Minimal transition times will keep that heart rate up!
EFFECTIVE PLANES OF MOTION
The moves in the Lagree Method are designed to ensure we train for real-life movement. Our instructors will ensure you receive a balanced workout, targeting all muscle groups to strengthen, lengthen and tone your body. Get ready to sweat, shake, sculpt, and be sore!
EFFECTIVE RANGE OF MOTION
In most cases, users notice a wider range of motion and better control over exercises within two to three sessions. This range of motion will continue to improve over time.
EFFECTIVE DURATION
Forget counting reps! Each exercise is designed to keep you under tension for a minimum amount of time—1 minute for arms, core, and obliques, and 2 minutes for legs. Quality over quantity!

No! Pilates is wonderful, but this is not the same. Unlike Pilates, which focuses on breathing and precision, Lagree Fitness emphasizes their “magic 8” principles: effective form, range of motion, tempo, duration, sequence, transition, tension, and plane of motion.

Spring resistance and free weights share key benefits: they both provide resistance, allow free range of motion, support variable speeds, and stimulate muscle and bone growth. However, while many believe free weights are superior, spring resistance offers a more effective alternative for those looking to tone and strengthen. The gentle tension on joints and connective tissues allows for perfect form and prolonged engagement, keeping movements controlled to prevent injury.
