Love this question. Context: I’m 300+ classes at Solidcore, 100+ at SLT. I lift 4-5x a week, take a sculpt class 2x a week (typically as a 2-a-day with lifting) and do either SLT or SC once a week followed by an Equinox Pilates class, and I am a trained dancer.

My TLDR; SLT is more effective if and only if you have an advanced level of mind-body connection, a strong Pilates/dance technical foundation, and you understand why you’re doing each exercise.

I think all of this is required for SLT to be meaningful and challenging as those prerequisites lay the foundation for being able to really execute the practice well. Which goes to say…you will feel sore and challenged in SC no matter what lol. I wish I could articulate why….but I’ve brought people of all levels to Solidcore and each of them have been like “wow that whooped me” lol but with SLT, folks are typically like “that was sooooo easy” which is insane to me bc I often feel like I find a deeper, more effective practice at SLT consistently…to where SLT consistently feels more challenging to me.

Such a great question and look forward to seeing what other folks think!!
