The method

The Résistance, explained

Slow Resistance Training on the XFormer: strength built the hard way, on purpose.

The machine

The XFormer is a spring-loaded strength machine that loads you on the push and on the return, so no inch of the rep is free. Over 200 exercises live on it, and every one scales from first class to athlete.

Slow Resistance Training

We slow every rep until momentum dies and your muscles carry the whole load: time under tension, progressive loading, zero coasting. Slow movements, fast results: train 3 to 5 times a week and you feel it within a month. That is exactly what your 2 unlimited weeks are for.

High-Intensity. Low-Impact.

Full intensity for your muscles, low impact for your joints. No jumping, no pounding: 50 minutes of pure tension you can recover from and repeat.

No mystery

Your first class, step by step

No guesswork. Here is exactly how it goes.

Book it

Checkout takes two minutes on Momence, then you pick your first class in the app. Classes book fast and waitlists are common, so lock in your first week right away.

Arrive 10 minutes early

Your coach gives you a proper machine intro before class starts: springs, handles, positions. You will know your way around the XFormer before the first rep.

Train. We handle the rest.

We program, you progress. Your coach calls every setup, corrects your form and scales each exercise to your level, rep by rep.

What to bring: water and grip socks. No grip socks yet? They are available for purchase at the studio.

Before you book

Questions, answered

I'm a total beginner. Will I keep up?
Yes. Every exercise on the XFormer scales, over 200 of them, from first-timer to athlete. Your coach sets you up before class and adjusts your load rep by rep. Nobody is born knowing the machine. Everybody starts at class one.
What do I bring?
Grip socks and water. Grip socks are available for purchase at the studio if you don't own a pair. Arrive 10 minutes early to your first class for your machine intro. One more thing: class time is adult time, so no children during class.
How do I book classes?
Through the Momence app, right after checkout. Book your first week as soon as you're in to get the times you want. Plans change? Cancel up to 6 hours before class starts to free your spot.
Which studio is my intro valid at?
All three. Griffintown, DIX30 in Brossard, and Place Ville Marie downtown. Mix them however your week demands: downtown at lunch, South Shore on Saturday.
I'm pregnant or managing an injury. Can I train?
With medical clearance, yes. Bring the green light from your doctor and tell your coach before class: they will adapt the programming around you. Questions first? Email info@studioresistance.com.
What happens after my 2 weeks?
The intro ends and the decision is yours. If you keep going: REfine at $116 a month for 4 classes, REinforce at $208 for 8, REmaster at $310 for unlimited. Drop-ins are $40. No pressure play here. The results make the argument.

Momentum doesn't
book itself.

Two weeks, three studios, unlimited classes. Enough to learn the machine, feel the results and join the crew.
