The Megaformer has springs, cables, and a carriage that slides — your instructor will show you the basics before you start. **Dress tight.** Loose clothes catch on the machine. Wear leggings and a fitted top. Grip socks are required at most studios (buy them on-site or bring your own). **Expect to shake.** The 4-count tempo and constant tension make muscles fatigue fast. Shaking is normal and means you're working at the right intensity. Instructors will offer modifications if you need them. **Soreness peaks at 24–48 hours.** Don't be surprised if you're more sore two days later than the day after. That's typical for Lagree. Hydrate and allow recovery time before your next session. ## How to Choose the Right Lagree Studio Since Wisconsin has limited options, the choice is mostly about location. If you're near Madison, REFORMadison is your best bet. If you're elsewhere in the state, here's what to look for: - **Certified instructors** — Lagree-trained instructors know the method and can cue proper form - **Small class sizes** — 8–12 people max means more attention and better form checks - **Intro offer** — Don't pay full price your first time. Most studios discount starter packages - **Schedule fit** — Pick a studio with class times you can actually make consistently - **Drive time** — You won't stick with it if it's 45+ minutes away. Be realistic. ## Frequently Asked Questions **How much does Lagree cost in Wisconsin?** Single classes run $30–$45. Intro packs (3–5 classes) cost $50–$100.
