Even before poking down the last forkful of sweet potatoes and stuffing, you were probably already thinking about the caloric expenditure you'd have to endure afterward. According to our most recent poll, you chose Shred415 (2156 N. Clybourn Ave., 773-360-8228) as your place to repent. The interval-style workout from Hollywood burns cals faster than your traditional sweat session. The Shred415 workout involves alternating cardio on Woodway treadmills (opt to walk, jog, or run) with weight training throughout the course of 60 minutes. While each class is a full-body workout, there are certain classes that focus more on those trouble spots we fret over: legs, tummy, arms, and back — pretty much anything that would affect the way you look in that little black dress, or bathing suit come Summer!

Drop-in classes are $24 each, but the more you sweat, the more you save! Discounted packages range from three to 20 classes, or there's an unlimited monthly option for $175-$205. Refer three peeps and you'll receive $24 toward your next class.
