SculptHouse wants you to meet Pete Chambers! Pete has been a huge part of SculptHouse’s growth since before we even opened. We can’t thank him enough for his continued support and spreading the word to the ATLFit community about the House! Meet Pete:
How did you hear about SculptHouse?
The Lead Trainer, Megan has been one of my favorite instructors for the past several years in other fitness classes. So three or four months before even opening, she contacted me about SculptHouse; and said “Pete, you are going to LOVE this workout.”. Boy was she right! From the moment I started doing the pre-opening/mock classes, I was hooked.
What would you tell another guy looking to try SculptHouse?
That this is by far THE MOST challenging workout or class I have ever done; and is THE BEST core work you can do, period! I’ve brought several buddies of mine who are in incredible shape to try a class. They all loved it, and said it was an incredibly tough workout and the best core work they have ever done. So don’t think that SculptHouse is just for women! It will challenge and push you to the limit . . . but you WILL see the results you want, if you stick with it.
How is the SH workout different from other group classes you’ve done?
First, the Megaformer is different from any other piece of equipment I have ever worked on. It forces you to isolate the muscle(s) you are supposed to be working and minimizes your ability to “cheat”. The number of movements and different parts of the body you can work on the Megaformer are endless. Second, the cardio portion on the Curve treadmill is incredible! The combination of Megaformer and Curve is a perfect workout . . . in only 50 minutes. Third, the chic studio, music, great energy, and beautiful instructors make SculptHouse a VERY unique place.
What is your favorite move(s) on the Megaformer? Favorite Curve block?
I love ALL of the core and oblique moves on the Megaformer, so it’s hard to pick just one, because they are all killer! But “French Twist” is probably one of my favorites. I have a definite love/hate relationship with the Curve . . . hate it while I’m on it, but LOVE it when I’m done. The final block is my favorite with the 45 builds.
What physical changes have you noticed the most?
The shaping, toning and strength to my entire core (not just abs, but the entire core area) have been amazing! I feel stronger everywhere, because I have strengthened my core area so much! Also I have noticed huge changes in my legs, both in tone and strength.
How often to you visit the House?
At least 4 times per week minimum, but on the average 5 times per week.
Can you tell us a little bit more about your exercise experience throughout your life and how the SH workout has been accessible even while recovering from any injuries? And also, do you think this workout can be for anyone of any age?
Even though this is an intense workout . . . don’t be scared to try it! SculptHouse is for anyone and everyone. I’m in my late 50’s, and I’ve had three back surgeries, one torn rotator cuff, one dislocated shoulder, one completely shattered wrist and permanent sciatic nerve damage in my left leg . . . yet I can still do SculptHouse and achieve great results. So if I can do it, anyone can! You just have to be willing to try, to push yourself and to take that first step! SculptHouse is exactly what the Atlanta fitness community has needed! It is a unique workout that provides definite results if you do it right and stick with it. It is NOT easy! But the results are rewarding!
Pete is right…you have to find a workout that works for you and stick with it! We are so happy to have Pete at the House several days a week in both formats: CardioSculpt and StrengthSculpt classes. Thanks Pete!
Love,
The SculptSquad
