Frequently Asked Questions

All you need to know about BODYPUMP HEAVY

What’s BODYPUMP HEAVY?

BODYPUMP HEAVY™ is tempo-based weightlifting that switches on your metabolic engine to build lean muscle like nothing else. Drawing on traditional lifting techniques, this powerful class challenges strength, builds lean muscle, and drives measurable performance gains. It’s simple to do and the slow tempo with lots of recovery periods allows for expert coaching, so you master form and technique.

Where can I try BODYPUMP HEAVY?

We’re previewing this new class at Les Mills Live in Amsterdam, Paris and Tokyo. More details around when BODYPUMP HEAVY will be available in clubs and on LES MILLS+ will be coming soon.

What’s the difference between BODYPUMP and BODYPUMP HEAVY?

While BODYPUMP™ builds strength endurance and lean muscle growth using the Rep Effect (over 1,000 reps in a single class), BODYPUMP HEAVY takes the proven psychology of group training and combines it with slower weightlifting. You focus on the same foundational lifts, but the slower speeds and recoveries allow for increased focus on technique and the ability to lift heavier.

Will BODYPUMP HEAVY replace regular BODYPUMP?

No. BODYPUMP HEAVY is not designed to replace BODYPUMP but to run alongside it, providing a natural next step for those who want to lift heavier. BODYPUMP HEAVY and BODYPUMP, meet different training needs and work best when scheduled together to provide both endurance and progression pathways.

Can I become a BODYPUMP HEAVY instructor?

Yes! We’ll share more information on this mid October. Keep an eye on our Les Mills channels to get the latest updates.
