You'll begin by warming up your body and mind, learning all the moves that will be used throughout the class, as you get ready for the battle ahead.
Visualise your opponent and unleash into a series of fight combinations. The focus is on speed, power and endurance. There will be time to recover as you prepare for each phase, with a final fight that will seal the deal on your fitness objectives.
Finally, you will take to the floor and cap off the workout with some strength training and ab work. Then it's payback time - stretch out those hard-worked muscles after your fight.
BODYCOMBAT is a high-energy martial-arts inspired workout that is totally non-contact. The instructor will challenge you to up the intensity and motivate you to make the most of every round. You’ll release stress, have a blast and feel like a champ.
BODYCOMBAT is available as either a 55, 45 or 30-minute workout. It is also available in some clubs as a virtual workout.
WHY DOES BODYCOMBAT WORK?
BODYCOMBAT™ features a science-backed combo of some of the most empowering and effective martial arts moves. The addition of motivating Instructors and amazing music is what pushes you to your true training potential. The workout is based on the science of Cardio Peak Training, which involves maintaining your heart rate at an aerobic training base (between 60 and 80 percent of your maximum heart rate) with interspersed peaks of intensity (pushing you to 85 to 90 percent of your max). This specific blend of steady-state and high-intensity builds cardio endurance, and also drives the transformative fat-burning effects associated with high-intensity interval training.
WHAT EXERCISES DO YOU DO DURING BODYCOMBAT?
BODYCOMBAT features moves from Karate, Taekwondo, Boxing, Muay Thai, Capoeira and Kung Fu. But don’t fret, you don’t need any martial arts experience – during the warm up you’ll be coached through all the different movements. You can expect to power through invigorating sets of hooks, jabs and uppercuts, and there are plenty of kicks and high knees too. You’ll also benefit from functional training moves such as lunges, squats and push ups.
Bodycombat is avalible at all LesMills clubs, check the timetable for details.
