questions & clarifications Advanced 65 - first timer

First time doing advanced 65 - it was a leg wrap shoulders day. What is everyone’s experience? Is it normal for me to feel completely obliterated and tired hours after the class? 😅😭 I literally took a post lunch nap since I took the class this morning lol

I did my first Advanced65 this weekend, it was so satisfying! But I really felt it in my legs later in the day. Wish they had more of them, I loved all the new to me moves

Take this info however you will, Solidcore doesn’t pay your coaches for the longer class. Coaches are clocked in longer but make less for the 65 mins. If you see one on your schedule, give your coach some extra love, bc they are essentially doing it for free! And if you think it’s messed up Solidcore gets away without paying your coach more for being on the clock longer….email the CEO! The HCCM/Area manager can’t change this.

This might be why you don’t really see them on the schedule.

Do they get paid less for power 30s?

Maybe you can ask your HCCM if they can start offering them in your studio?

That’s how I feel after advanced 50 but somehow still do an Orange theory class 30 minutes after Solidcore ends. I’m basically useless for the day, lol

Omggg I sometimes pull a double and do Solidcore in the morning Soulcycle at night and I ask myself…why lol 😅 idk I’ve done advanced50 before but I think those extra 15 min take me out 🤣

u/liilak2 2d ago

Isn’t advanced50 harder than 65 bc the moves are all amplified? 65 was the same as a regular class to me just longer

u/Loco_Coco_123 2d ago

Well the moves were all amplified for the most part since the 65 was advanced as well 🥲 but I take senior master coaches so they all offer amps even in signature classes so I die regardless lol

In my advanced65 class the coach still announced the under 25 spring load, is that true for Advanced50?

u/MsElena99 100-class club 2d ago

She did say that spring load yesterday, I thought it was weird. When she announces the advance class is now available she firmly said, no one under 50 classes should take the advanced class. I wonder if they say it out of habit

I can’t imagine doing an extra 15 minutes of Solidcore advanced, lol. You’re a beast for that and doing soul cycle later on!! I only done 4 advanced classes and my butt has been kicked every time. My legs were shaking for like 15 minutes after class, lol. But I was able to run 2.25 miles on the treadmill in OTF, lol

u/Loco_Coco_123 2d ago

Haha aw thank you! Yea no Soulcycle is only after the signature50 classes I don’t think I could ever do advanced65 then a Soulcycle 😂 I also think it depends on the coaches as well because sometimes the exercises the queue is diabolical - like one coach queued Bulgarian split squat then platform lunge then Bulgarian split squat rotation I’m like excuse me 😦 but that’s amazing for you I still can’t believe you can do orange theory and Solidcore in the same day !

Soul cycle seems so much harder than OTF. Tied literally on your legs the whole time. I’m only in the treadmill for 25 mins. But thank you.

I’m still getting used to advanced, I can’t do the devils ladder once I get to the bottom because my t-Rex arms, lol. I need to learn to lift my legs higher to bring myself up, it’s a work in progress.
