What the heck is TFT? Well, you could go two ways with that. One, it is the tension equipment that you see above (a patented product, I must add). Two, it's a fitness studio in Gahanna solely revolved around using the TFT equipment.

The Founder and Creator of TFT Fitness, Dr. Tremaine Young, has a background of being a Primary Care Physician, Chiropractor, Engineer and Division One Athlete. In other words, this shit is legit. TFT is used by athletes and normal folks around the world. It's widely used by the Ohio State Buckeye athletes.

"In less than 20 minutes, it offers the user a total body training including cardio that can be done virtually anywhere."

20 MINUTES FOLKS. So, how does it work? The TFT uses a closed chain tension system. When exercising with the TFT, the body is under a constant working tension force through every movement involving the body’s kinetic chain. It is this synchronization of muscle engagement that eliminates the possibility of wasted energy and elevates the total effectiveness of the body when using the TFT to perform exercise.

In our Babes HIIT exclusive class, we a boot camp-style class with the tension bands around us at all times. It sucked so good. I, personally, was dead after 5 minutes. We did push-ups, mountain climbers, high knees, bicep curls, etc. It was a true whole body experience. And, in our 25 minute class, we burned around 500 calories.

If you choose to become a member, you'll need to buy your own TFT bands to bring to class. However, you can use those TFT bands anywhere, not just in this studio. Dr. Young does pop-up classes all around Columbus. He'll attach the TFT bands to trees, poles, tires, you name it. But, if you need the extra push and motivation, head to the classes in the studio and you'll multiple coaches there pushing you and counting your reps for you.
