The Playlist That’ll Make Even Your Toughest Workouts Less Intimidating

Every week, Your New Favorite Playlist introduces you to workout-worthy tunes from a different fitness brand. This week, Tone House shares a playlist from a recent class.

Tone House, a fitness studio that a former pro athlete opened in New York City last year, has a reputation...for being kind of terrifying. "It's dark, there's red lights, and we have our scary music going in the beginning, so a lot of people are instantly intimdated," says head coach Tamara Pridgett. "But then you speak to the people, and you're like, 'Oh, my gosh, these are quite possibly the best people I've ever met.' ... It's not even just the people you're working out with; it's the coaches." The supportive nature of the workout (you're instantly put onto a team) sets it apart from the ones at other studios, says Pridgett.

The routine mixes up explosive exercises, resistance training, speed training, and periods of active recovery to bring out your inner athlete—and each session starts and ends with a team chant. "Basically, it's a lot of learning how to use the muscle you have and become a functional athlete," says Pridgett.

Music is key in keeping you pumped up throughout the tough workout. "If we turn on a really fast-paced song, you just see everything change," says Pridgett. Here's the mix from a recent class:
