MZ-Burn classes are featured in the Myzone software and allow operators to easily deliver group cardio and functional training experience.
MZ-Burn is a selection of ‘classes’ featured within the Myzone software and allows operators to easily deliver a group cardio and functional training experience as seen in many boutique studios. Myzone has created five classes titled - ‘Unity’, ‘Orbit’, ‘Trilogy’, ‘Elevate’, and ‘Circuit’, all of which are available in the Myzone software right now. The MZ-Burn program centers around 5 different cardio stations to provide variety and to cater for all ages, shapes, sizes, and most of all, fitness levels.
MZ-Burn consists of 50% cardio equipment and 50% spent on the functional kit. (With the exception of Burn Trilogy which is 33% cardio and 67% on functional/ bodyweight exercises.)
What Is Required?
Clubs will need a Myzone Ultron Tablet, and it is suggested that 2 TV’s are visible in the main group training area, one for the cardio and one for the functional area. The Myzone computer
must be connected to the internet and if connected to an audio player, music can also be played through it.

How to Set Up MZ-Burn Classes
The number of pieces per cardio station will determine the overall capacity of the class. Ie. 2 pieces
of each cardio station will mean 10 pieces in total - amounting to either 20 or 30 maximum class sizes.
4 items per cardio station will mean 20 pieces in total and amounting to 40 or 60 maximum class sizes.
The total class size will depend on the desired space and budget. Cardio (2-10 of each item will allow a capacity class size of 30-150 people):
You will need the same pieces of equipment in your functional kit as you have in your cardio station. If you have 2 pieces in the cardio station, then you’d only need 2 pieces of functional equipment. (for Orbit, Trilogy, Elevate, and Circuit programs).
Examples of equipment: Plyo boxes, Battle Ropes, Punch bags, Skipping ropes, Suspension Trainers,
Vipers, Barbells, Plates, Steps, Performance Bags, Balance Trainers, Bosu Balls, Fixed Tyre Flips etc.
