Hey! I have been Pumping for awhile and just officailly signed up for a BodyPump initial training. I am so excited and nervous. Not sure what I have gotten myself into but I am stoked     ..... Any suggestions for the newbe? Thanks

Hey.....U reminded me of how I felt right after I signed up for my initial training as well...hehehe
Well, I suggest that you keep going for PUMP class regularly before your initial training starts. Master your technique and chorey. (Ask the instructors to help/watch your technique.) Listen to how the instructors coach. When it's time for your course, go in with a learning attitude, enjoy it and soon it will be over!

Kia Kaha!

Also, have fun.

good luck

i also intend to sign up for initial training once i lose enough weight, meanwhile i'm working on perfecting my technique

Advice from someone who has recently completed the training:

1. bring plenty of healthy mini-meals, protein shakes, and re-hydration fluids.  You'll be doing roughly 2.5 pump classes per day, so you'll need energy to perform for all.

2. bring at least 2 changes of gym clothes as well something warm to wear.  You'll be doing roughly 2.5 pump classes per day, and will be sweating for all.  Gym studios are usually cold with the a/c on.

3. WARNING:  the BodyPump Challenge is a REAL challenge.  Grit your teeth and go for gold!

Good luck

Agree with the above.  I also packed some baby wipes, felt great to change clothes and freshen up when there's no time for a shower! Above all have fun :)
