THE DIFFERENCE

What makes Arma Lift+Ride different?

Lift+Ride combines structured cycling intervals with focused free-weight strength training in one seamless session.
Members move between:
• Cardiovascular intervals on the bike
• Foundational barbell-based strength blocks

The result is a balanced, full-body session that develops endurance, strength and power - without high joint stress or complicated setups.

It’s efficient. It’s deliberate. It’s scalable.

THE DIFFERENCE FOR MEMBERS

Why it works for members

Members don’t have to choose between lifting and conditioning.

The bike keeps impact low and intimidation down. The strength blocks build real capability and confidence.

Lift+Ride develops:
• Cardiovascular endurance
• Muscular endurance
• Foundational strength
• Power output
• Elevated calorie burn

Two essential pillars. One class.

THE DIFFERENCE FOR BUSINESS

Why it works for your business

Designed for smaller studios and smart operators.
Lift+Ride uses a simple, compact setup – bikes, barbells, plates, steps and slamballs – with fast transitions and quick resets.

It delivers maximum variety in minimal space, without complex equipment.
Complements Ride, SD and Everest by adding strength, conditioning and a lower-impact hybrid option.

One setup. Multiple outcomes. Strong commercial efficiency.

Frequently asked questions

What space and equipment do we need?

All Arma programs are designed to maximise space and minimise setup cost.
Lift+Ride workouts require just 4m² per person.
Equipment requirements are: Bike, barbells, plates, steps, slamballs

Most studios run with:
• One or two screens for our workout
• One screen for our timers
• A music system

We’ll guide you on the best setup based on your space, budget and goals.

Do we still control our timetable and class layout?

Yes - completely.
Arma provides structured programming across the week - you choose how it fits your timetable.

You can:
• run selected programs only
• scale class frequency up or down
• adjust layout to suit your space

We provide layout guides and proven weekly structures, so you get efficiency and variety without guesswork.

How quickly can we train new coaches?

Fast.
Most coaches can be ready with foundation training in as little as 2 weeks. Ongoing development is built into the system.

This removes one of the biggest bottlenecks in group training:
• long certifications
• recruitment roadblocks
• expensive training pathways
• inconsistent delivery

Can we really launch in just 4 weeks?

Yes - if your space and equipment are ready.

Our system is built for speed:
• structured onboarding
• streamlined coach training
• ready-to-run programming

Most sites can be live within 4 weeks, with experienced coaches often ready even faster.

Do coaches need to be qualified?

No prior qualifications are required.

We train your coaches in:
• movement fundamentals
• coaching delivery
• presence, voice and connection
• session flow and energy

Coaches complete both online and in-person training, and must pass an assessment before delivering sessions.

How does Arma help improve member retention?

Arma is designed around what actually keeps people coming back:
• Connection - connection to coach and others in the workout
• Experience - energy and atmosphere
• Results - structured progression
• Variety - without randomness

We combine physical programming with psychological and social drivers, creating sessions people want to repeat.

This reduces drop-off and drives stronger long-term engagement.

How is Arma different from workouts like Les Mills and others?

Current group training systems require choreography (which can be expensive and difficult for coaches) or leave the experience to a PT and a screen.

Arma is built around the full experience:
• Progessive seasonal programming
• Coaching learning and delivery
• Music integration
• Member connection

Instead of relying on individual coaches to “make it work”, Arma provides a system that ensures consistency, energy and retention across every class.

Can another studio running Arma workouts open near me?

No.
When you license Arma, you receive territory protection, meaning no other Arma operators can launch in your agreed zone.

How much does it cost

Arma pricing is designed to be commercially strong from day one.
Costs vary depending on:
• programs selected
• number of sites
• level of support required

Most operators find Arma delivers:
• lower ongoing costs than traditional models
• faster return on setup
• stronger class utilisation

We’ll provide a tailored proposal based on your setup.

What support do we get after launch?

Ongoing support is a core part of Arma.

You get:
• continuous programming updates
• coach development and upskilling
• operational guidance
• marketing support

You’re not just buying workouts - you’re getting a system that evolves with your business.
