The science of lagree

  • Strength training

  • Cardio

  • Core stabilization

  • Endurance

  • Balance and flexibility

It’s performed on a machine called the Megaformer, which adds resistance, instability, and full-body control to every move — all with zero impact on joints.

Science-based. high-intensity. low-impact.

The Megaformer:

Lagree’s Secret Weapon

Invented by Sebastien Lagree, the Megaformer is a specialized machine designed to:

  • Add adjustable spring resistance

  • Create constant instability (activating core and stabilizers)

  • Allow multi-directional movement (front, back, lateral, rotational)

Megaformer Key Features:

  • Carriage (center platform that glides)

  • Stationary platforms (front and back, for stability)

  • Springs (control variable resistance)

  • Handles + Cables (target different body parts)

  • Micro-adjustments to load and tension, enabling universal scaling

HOw it works

Strength:

slow, resisted movement = deeper muscle fatigue

Core activation:

core is engaged on every single move

joint-friendly:

no jumping or impact = low risk of injury

flexibility + Balance:

lengthening and stabilizing during every exercise

Cardio Burn:

Continuous tension and short rest spike heart rate
