 July 5th, 2012
When I lived on the westside, Burn 60 in Brentwood was my favorite ultimate fitness regimen. A lot like West Hollywood’s Barry’s Bootcamp, Burn 60 provides towels, water, a cleaner and brighter studio as well different types of workout classes. I craved and loved Burn 60 since I always left feeling like I’d just worked out every possible muscle with their cardio and weight training one hour madness.
