Bodypump

[zarbtron]

Girls in the office trying to get me to go - anyone know if it's good for bulking up a bit? Or is it better for girls wanting to slim down? Should I just stick to the weights?

It is just a weight lifting class to music. You can do as much or as little as you like.

@ sirens and grego


I think I'll give it a go just to see what happens if I'm in major pain all over the following (or next) day then I'll conclude it works

Zarbs it is really good, I enjoy it.

beware it hurts

From jj's website:

Beginners, or anyone returning to exercise after a lay-off, may gain a little muscle. However, Body Pump involves the use of light weights and high repetitions. This type of workout will increase muscular endurance rather than add a significant amount of muscle.


:x

Think I'll still have a go. Might be some fit boys for me to look at at least

I've been - great for toning - crap for bulking up.

Done in conjunction with your normal gym workout it can be good.

Someone your size wouldn't need to though - like cardio, that should be the first thing to go.

Concentrate on bulking up...high weight low repetition all the way.

Do it for a laugh though and post pictures of yourself in the leotard please!

It wouldn't take much imagination to think that was a picture of me to be honest

Actually I looked again and I'd like to retract that statement with immediate effect!

yea, for workout music, you basically need hard-hitting euro-dance music.... nothing else does the job

really. Search around on iTunes for "euro club hits" or check this link:
