Vibrate your way to shape with power plates at this acclaimed gym.

The buzz: Popular power plate studio Croyez has expanded its range of classes into another outlet on Purvis Street and looks set to make this high frequency workout the next big thing.

The vibe: It’s not exactly a mega fitness center, what with it being half the size of a tennis court and with just one shower/toilet cubicle, but that’s exactly what we like about it. No fluff means work actually get done.

The goods: Croyez holds six to 12 (small) classes a day from Mondays to Saturdays, ranging from PowerZone (a basic conditioning class), PowerSculpt (great resistance training), PowerCardio, PowerStretch (who needs yoga?) and PowerBox (perfect for losing weight). With power ranging from 35 to 60 Hz, the power plate machine forces you to put in extra effort and pressure into your workout positions, making a simple 10-minute routine feel like it’s a half hour’s worth.

Why you’ll be back: Not many workout classes fulfill their promises, but the flood of registrations that have come in at Croyez prove that some things, like the formidable power plate, are worth a shot. The 10-minute “massage” at the end of each session is a great incentive too.

Register for a trial class for $18 at Croyez Studio, #02-01, 8 Purvis St., 6474-4140, www.croyezstudio.com. Open Mon-Fri 7am-10pm; Sat 9am-4pm.
