Blast is a small, upscale personal-training-oriented gym located in Buckhead's West Village area, upstairs in the East Andrews shopping center. Blast offers unique personal-training programs built around the goal of burning 900 calories per workout. The programs at Blast are based on the scientific fitness concept of interval training, in which high- and relatively low-intensity exercises are alternated. This "circuit-training meets boot camp" style of training pushes the body to continue burning calories long after the workout. The friendly and enthusiastic staff at Blast includes 10 instructors, and the cutting-edge facility includes showers and towel service.
