Work those Abs

The treadmill isn’t for everyone. Here are five alternatives to get fit for the big day.
Pop Physique

Established in California, the Mount Vernon studio, casually known as “Butt School,” is one of only two Pop Physique outposts on the East Coast. Though Baltimore may not have the climate that necessitates a year-round bikini body, this twist on a traditional barre class will leave you with shaking muscles and a seriously toned booty.

 

InSync Cycle
