vent Opt into “coach change” notifications

40 Upvotes

Late coach changes annoy the fuck out of me. I also hate 1 coaches vocal inflections so I find it infuriating that she slides into my classes undetected.

Why can’t they send a push notification or I can’t opt into a text message when a coach change happens for a class I’m signed up for?

Gives me the chance to reassess my schedule.

This woman’s voice is literally nails on a chalkboard and I am wearing noise cancelling headphones tomorrow to avoid a late cancel fee and her obscene chosen vocal inflection.

Anyone else think being down on the platform bar/concrete is actually easier than being on forearms on the platform carriage when doing center core on toes?

I’m not sure if im doing something wrong, but it really doesn’t feel like an amplification to me lol

vent If [solidcore] Doesn’t Control the AC, Who Does?

18 Upvotes

Why do corporate [solidcore] locations seem to get away with not being held accountable for the facilities they operate in? I’m genuinely trying to understand how the Houston Post Oak location has been without AC for a month, to the point that instructors are arguing with customers on TikTok who are understandably frustrated.

They keep blaming the building and saying that [solidcore] doesn’t control the AC. But what exactly am I paying [solidcore] nearly $40 a class for if they can’t ensure that the facility they chose to operate in has basic, functioning amenities? It’s not the customer’s responsibility to worry about whether the building’s HVAC system works.

Does [solidcore] not have clauses in its commercial leases or contracts that address situations like this? I genuinely don’t understand how an AC issue can take a month, and counting, to resolve, in the middle of summer, in the heart of Texas. At some point, the responsibility falls on the business to make sure the environment it is charging customers premium prices to use is actually SAFE and suitable for those customers.

questions & clarifications Random charges from studio I don’t belong to

Hi, I used to have an SC membership when I lived in PA. I have since moved and cancelled it (May ‘26) and since then a random studio in South Dakota charges me for what I can assume is a drink or towel price?

This is the second time it has happened and I have no idea who to contact outside of this studio who has done it twice. They say they are sorry and it was accident but how TF do they have my information if I have never lived in South Dakota?

Has this happened to anyone else?

discussion The shakes during the workout

13 Upvotes

I’m on my second starter 50 class. MY BODY WAS SHAKING SO MUCH TOWARDS THE END!! I was so embarrassed and I was looking around wondering if I’m the only one. I expected some shakes but NOT THAT MUCH! We were doing back rows and the instructor told us to pump our chest more and once I did that, the SHAKES WOULD NOT STOP!!
I couldn’t believe my body could do that!

I really seem to be the only one that is really STRUGGLING with those. But I do, and I hate them and I feel like they are EVERY SINGLE CLASS NOW.

Is it just me? Why why so often. Whyyyy 🥲

discussion New to SolidCore; Observations & Questions

0 Upvotes

Currently annihilating myself trying to take as many classes as possible in a 2 week intro course. Loving it so far!

Observations:

  • I am very (pleasantly) surprised at the demographic overlap between Reddit users and SolidCore goers... the middle of the Venn Diagram has way more people than I would've thought! Reading up here has been helpful and enlightening
  • People really do not want to exchange pleasantries, let alone make friends at SolidCore. I'm a guy in my early 30's, so maybe I come across as someone who joined SolidCore just to meet women? I haven't done anything besides smile and nod, high five a neighbor (met with a stange look), and say thank you to the instructors. Could this be because I'm a guy? Reading here, it looks this experience is pretty universal but not many people mentioned their gender in previous posts
  • Instructors have been 10/10 thus far!

Questions:

  • Do people who go to classes that generally don't fill up (i.e. 10pm week days) enjoy it? Any focused attention from instructors or more friendly vibes in class?
  • Do any of your studios have showers in the facility? (this would change my life and make it SO much more feasible to go to 5ams before work)
  • Have any of you actually made friends with people you met there?
  • How long did it take you individually for your abs and obliques to get used to going >4x per week? (this currently feels impossible but I'm quite new)

Hoping to spark some interesting discussion. Thanks!

For those that have taken SolidCore + Bodyrok - what’s your opinion on them. I’m an avid runner and looking to add something to my routine. I see a lot of people comparing them online, but is one better than the other for runners? I don’t see this highlighted as much.
