Solidcore: Long Island’s new
boutique fitness studio
By CHRISTA GANZ
Solidcore, the trendy new boutique
fitness studio that debuted last June
in Roslyn Heights, is planning to
open a new location in Manhattan
amid the Washington D.C.-based
company’s national expansion.
Founded by entrepreneur and
motivational speaker Anne
Mahlum, Solidcore offers a
50-minute Pilates-style class like no
other. By using springs and cables,
Solidcore allows members “high
-intensity, low-impact, slow and
controlled resistance training” to
make the most of their workout by
focusing on working every muscle
at a slow pace, she says.
“People think that you have to
beat up your body to get results,”
Mahlum says. “You have to jump,
you have to pound, you have to be
explosive, and it’s wrong.”
She said she got the idea after
completing 11 marathons. Mahlum
explains that she wasn’t receiving
satisfactory results for the time she
put into her exercises.
In 2013, Mahlum opened her first
Solidcore studio in the nation’s
capital, where former First
Lady Michelle Obama became
a fan. Solidcore now has over
30 locations nationwide,
with plans to have 50 studios
open by the end of this year.
Solidcore’s tagline says it all:
Helping people create the strongest
versions of themselves. Their
success is entirely results based.
“It’s a full-body workout that
challenges your muscles and your
mind in ways that you have not
experienced before,” says Mahlum.
“So once people find it, there’s just
no substitute for it.”
Mahlum explains why resistance
training is the key to weight loss
over cardio. While members are
sure to burn calories during the
class, most of the lean-muscle
building happens 24 hours after
Solidcore.
“It’s really an investment of your
time for what you can do for the
next 24 hours,” says Mahlum.
“You’re ripping the muscle fibers,
which is what causes the shaking
and soreness afterward. So your
body has to work overtime which
means your metabolism increases.
You’re burning more energy to
rebuild those muscles 24 hours
after the class is over.”
Solidcore’s Long Island studio is
located at 250 S. Service Rd., Roslyn
Heights. It can be reached at 516-
535-9205 or solidcore.com.
