Les Miles Body Pump/Step

[[email protected]]

The gym I belong to uses the Les Miles Body Pump/Step classes. I've been doing them for the past few years and now would like to try some Cathe DVDs. Has anyone done Body Pump and Body Step? I'd like to know what Cathe items to purchase that would be the same intensity as the workout I'm doing now. Thanks!

Hi Robyn! Power Hour would be the closest fit to a Body Pump workout. Next in line would be Muscle Endurance. Some others that are similar, yet a bit different would be Maximum Intensity Strength and Muscle Max. Have Fun!

Thanks, Cathe. I'm so excited to start! Do you have any suggestions for a similar program to Body Step? Thanks so much!

I take Bodystep classes. I would say that Cathe doesn't have anything similiar to the the set-up that Les Mills does with Bodystep.

However, since Bodystep is considered interval training, you could use any of the Imax's, but these will still be very different in format. The Imax's will improve your cadio endurance even better than BodyStep.

Hi all - at the risk of being de-certified and banned from the Les Mills world, I teach Body Step. I have to say that Cathe's step programs are MUCH more fun and interesting! Sometimes I find Body Step to be a bit "behind" in the times, i.e. too basic and repetitive.
