Are you ready to be part of something huge? BodyPump 100 launches globally on Saturday, January 14, and we’ve rounded up which gyms in Abu Dhabi are offering their schedule for the programme.
BodyPump is a group fitness class created by Les Mills International. The first class started in December 1991 in Auckland, New Zealand. The programme consist of using barbells at a low weight for high repetition to sculpt, tone and strengthen the entire body. The class is 55 minutes long (although there are express formats) and uses 10 music tracks, including a warm-up and cooldown and focuses on specific muscle groups during each track.
