CARMEL, Ind. In college, there was the Freshman 15 but nowadays were hearing more and more about the dreaded Quarantine 15. And when it comes to fitness, there are plenty of options out there but do they fit your schedule?

Originally co-founded in 2014 by Olympic decathlon gold and silver medalist, Bryan Clay, Eat The Frog Fitness is a high-tech, personalized group fitness studio that sets itself apart by offering classes 24-hours a day.

We decided to check out the Carmel location which opened just over a year ago off Pennsylvania Street near Carmel Driveto see what its all about.

Were hopping back into fitness on this tripIn Your Neighborhood.

Eat The Frog is actually a quote from Mark Twain, who said If your job is to eat a frog, its best to do it first thing in the morning, explained Eat The Frog Fitness Carmel owner and general manager, Daniel Frausto. Which basically means that you have to do the most difficult task of the day first and the day is only going to get better after that so stop procrastinating and just do it.

For some, that first task is a workout.

And since not all schedules are the same, Eat The Frog Fitness is open 24-hours a day, 7 days a week, with both in-person coach led-classes and in-studio virtual classes.

We have 2 big IMAX screens in the room so they can follow the prompt from those IMAX screens, said Frausto. The IMAX screens are prescribing the class, how much time you have left of a particular exercise, how many repetitions, what exercise is coming up next and what your heart rate target should be at.

Four Things You Need to Know About Eat The Frog Fitness:

The studio itself is divided in two different sides.

On the right side, we have what you call the traditional side, where we have the low-impact equipment including Keiser spin bikes and Concept2 rollers, he said. On the other side of the studio, thats what we call the functional side. We have TRX straps and Alpha sandbags to do the functional component.

Classes are about 55-minutes long and differentiated by three different formats: cardio, strength and agility.

During the workout, you can monitor your heart rate and progress on the big screens using their Frog Pod heart rate monitor.

But Frausto says the monitoring feature is less about the competition aspect than it is about tracking their effort and progress.

All of our members go through a fitness assessment so we can understand the baseline fitness level, their fitness goals, and based on that we give them a personalized fitness plan for the next 8 weeks, he said. And we continue to reassess every 8 weeks so they can track their progress objectively.
