With two Hamptons locations to choose from, we love Barry’s for their high-intensity interval training, carefully curated playlists, world-class instructors and welcoming community. Barry’s signature HIIT workout takes place in the Red Room, a studio full of red light and high energy, while the Double Floor workout is available for those who prefer not to run. Both workouts keep your heart rate elevated, allowing you to burn more calories and increase lean body mass.
