I'v been doing martial arts for 10yrs, and i just now got introduced to Body Combat through the YMCA in Texas, USA. I love it!!! I just ifnished my initial training, i wanted to die... 3500 calories burned on the second day. Anyway, i'm developing shin splints, where your muscle fibers are ripping away from the bone, literally, it hurts as bad as ...

To be honest, I'm an infrequent participant of BC. But I sometimes feel the urge to practice continuous quick upper cuts which were demonstrated to the music such as ''Believe In Me'' (BC34) or ''What Hurts The Most'' (BC38), or quick body hooks with ''Welcome To The Black Parade'' (BC32). And once it hits me, I cannot stop such kind of ...

Thank you very mush for a hearty comment! This is the very answer that I really wanted most. You must be a natural entertainer and be highly talented. And I love talented people. As I'm just a participant, I'm always wondering whether it is appropriate or not to talk to the instructor just after the class. Of course, some of instructors are very ...

Thank you very much for a quick response! This night I'll have a BC class presented by one of my favaourite instructors. Usually, I just shake hands with him at the exit. But tonight, I'll try to say something nice if it helps to make the instructor and, of course, me to be happy.

As a shy participant, this thread is as informative and significant as ever.   After the class, just before the exit where the talented instructor is standing to greet, I always pretend to be indifferent! I bow politely without saying anything and at most shake his or her hand stretched towards me. What I really want to do is much ...

Let me first say that BC 38 is off the charts (that's nothing new)!!!  I love it!  I have found people don't just come to class to get into shape.  I have started a BC community with my participants and I have found BC has taught a lot of them disciplined that has traveled into their lives outside of the gym.  It is amazing to ...

we are only doing BodyPump at my club right now.  what type of population do you find likes Body Combat?  is there a typical age group?  is the choreography too much for the evening after work group? Thanks Rachel, Billings MT.

Hey to all of my enthusiasts across the globe who are fighting globesity with fitness fervor!  Peace and love.....these are two words I live by and I cannot describe how they have been absorbed by Body Combat.  For smigden of time I wasn't at peace becaue I could not find something to be excited about and then I found BC and even though ...

Hello my name is Curtis and I live in the US!  Since I have been certified BC has morphed my life into someting that I have yet to explain.  I have implemented the disciplines it takes to hold the name of a lesmills instructor into other facets of my life and it has made me a better person.  Without BC, I still would be looking for ...

This is one of those posts saying this stuff works, hopefully to convince someone it’s a great way to get fitter. I was in my late 20s with an office job and after a couple of years of not doing a lot of activity I was a bit over weight. Wasn’t heaps over weight, but given my age and was getting bigger, knew needed to do something. So ...
