Start your Friday mornings strong with our Outdoor Cardio Circuit Training—a dynamic, high-energy, one-hour workout designed to challenge your entire body while soaking in the fresh air and scenic views of the Eastside Promenade. Held weekly on Fridays at 9:00 AM, this class meets at Active Studios NYC, conveniently located at York Avenue and East 81st Street, just steps from the Promenade between E81st and E79th Streets.

This isn’t your average jog-in-the-park. The Outdoor Cardio Circuit Training is a professionally structured full-body conditioning class that fuses targeted strength training with cardiovascular endurance. Designed to push your limits, each session is programmed to train key muscle groups including your core, quads, glutes, delts, calves, and abs. The circuit-style format ensures your body is constantly moving, building strength while torching calories.

Expect to log an average of 5,000 steps during the hour, making this not only a strength training session but also a powerful cardio burn. Whether you’re working toward weight loss, building lean muscle, increasing stamina, or improving overall fitness, this class delivers results in a fast-paced, supportive environment.

The Eastside Promenade provides the ideal setting—an invigorating outdoor space with plenty of room to move, breathe, and train without limits. The energy of the river, the rhythm of the city, and the open skies add a motivating boost to every burpee, lunge, and sprint.

What to Expect:

• 1 Hour of Full-Body Functional Training

• Targeted muscle focus: core, glutes, quads, delts, calves, abs

• High step count: average 5,000 steps

• Built-in cardio: every circuit keeps your heart pumping

• Strength training using bodyweight, resistance bands, and more

• Outdoor setting: fresh air, scenic views, and plenty of space

• Motivating group atmosphere led by professional instructors

All fitness levels are welcome. Exercises are scalable and modifications are available for beginners and advanced participants alike. You’ll leave each session feeling accomplished, energized, and one step closer to your fitness goals.
