BodyPump is a total-body strength workout that will shape and tone all major muscle groups, increase core strength, improve bone health, and leave you feeling strong and fit! The low-weight, high-repetition training of BodyPump™ is based on a formula called The Rep Effect™, which utilizes time under tension and fatigue to generate muscular adaptation. The fusion of science-backed moves, motivating instructors, and great music helps you achieve much more than you would on your own.
