What is LesMills BODYPUMP?
BODYPUMP is ideal for those new to exercise and particularly strength training. It is the ultimate resistance training workout and can easily be modified to meet your level. Studies also show that BODYPUMP can generate athleticism; improving strength, power and speed. There is also evidence that the high-repetition, low-load training of BODYPUMP can increase bone density and reduce the risk of osteoporosis. And, BODYPUMP has been shown to reduce inflammatory markers and drive significant gains in functional ability.
While you can expect to burn an average of 400 calories during a 55-minute BODYPUMP workout, scientists now advise gauging the impact of your workouts by looking beyond the immediate calorie burn. It's the building of lean muscle mass that provides long-term benefits, as when you increase lean muscle mass the extra muscle will raise your metabolism, so you increase your body’s ability to effectively burn calories beyond your workout.
In a BODYPUMP workout there are options to suit every ability. If you're new to the workout start with very light weights (or even just the bar). Perhaps just do the first four or five tracks a couple of times a week. You'll find your fitness and strength improve over a number of sessions. There’s no pressure to lift heavy during a BODYPUMP workout. In fact, the whole workout is structured around high repetitions using light weights. However, the strength gains only come when you challenge yourself, and that relies on something called progressive overload. Progressive overload is the ongoing adaptation that occurs when you escalate the stress placed on your muscles. Lifting incrementally heavier loads is one of the most powerful ways to benefit from progressive overload and in some cases sparks hypertrophic muscle growth.

What is LesMills CORE?
Inspired by elite athletic training principles, LES MILLS CORE is a scientific core workout for incredible core tone and sports performance. You build strength, stability and endurance in the muscles that support your core, improve balance, assist injury prevention, and become better at everything you do.
All the moves in LES MILLS CORE have options, so it’s challenging but achievable whatever your level of fitness. During the workout, trained instructors guide you through correct technique as you work with resistance tubes and weight plates, as well as bodyweight exercises like crunches, and hovers. Plus there are some hip, butt and lower back exercises too. For best results, it is recommended to take this class 2-3 per week.
