Welcome to Racked's Fitness Week: five days of workout coverage, so that you can start your New Year's resolutions off right.

We've already broken down what NYC's chain gyms will run you, now we're tackling what it costs to work out at NYC's hottest fitness studios. We selected a range across all workout styles—from barre to CrossFit—including the bigger names with enduring fan bases (SoulCycle, Physique 57) as well as some so hot right now studios like Brooklyn Bodyburn and The Fhitting Room.

After the jump, we break down the studios by price per class, what $150 a month will buy you (spoiler alert: it's not much more than a class per week), and how much it would cost to work out three times a week for a month at each studio. Sticker shock? Check out this map of where to workout on a budget.
