Body Combat 35
It’s been about 3 weeks since the New Zealand release of Body Combat 35. Plenty of time to get use to the moves and start getting some real power behind it, even if just starting out with it.
Had a pretty packed Wellington launch event at Les Mills. Followed by a couple of blitz weeks of team instructors at the usual time slots.
BC35 has a pile of leg work to it, with some kick heavy tracks also set of one legged squats. The promo for BC35 gives a good idea of what to expect.

Beginners guide to Les Mills Body Combat
Ok, so mentioned it before, Body Combat is a great fun way to get fit. The hard bit when starting out with it if as un-coordinated as me, is getting the technique right.
The first class I did was great! Although I was left at the end of it wondering how the hell the rest of the people manage to do all the kicks etc so gracefully.
The short answer is practice. Being pretty un-fit when start and not very flexible or coordinated it took 3-4 class before started getting a feel of the correct technique, and about another dozen before I looked like I sort of know what I’m going.
Although it is largely practice, there are a few ticks to help improve….

Gym
It’s been about two months since joined the gym. Was a great idea doing it and should have much earlier.
Never considered myself the type of person that would like going to the gym, but now getting regularly am really enjoying it.
Have started to notice getting a lot fitter, so must be paying off… Lost about 8kg as well...

Body Combat
A couple weeks ago decided I need to get a bit fitter. So off I went to the local Les Mills and joined.
Interesting getting joined up the gym considering have never really used one. A few people around pretty much posers and a few seriously bulking up, but most just in there few times a week excise.
In the weekend, thought better try out their classes too and now have been along a couple of time to their Body Combat class.
Basically fast, hard, shadow boxing and kicking to music for an hour. Think going to be along to that once a week.
Starting to get my jab and cross down… Still need a bit of work on my hook though.
