Exploring "Body Pump" Class at Goodlife Health Clubs, Mermaid Waters

It always good to mix up your training ladies and try something new.  So, although a tad bit nervous, I decided to test out this Body Pump class at Goodlife Health Club Mermaid Waters.  Now why are so many people addicted to Body Pump and just why is everyone raving about this class.  

I can tell you that straight away the lovely instructor came up and introduced herself and assisted me with my whole set up, which was absolutely fabulous.  Before I could even turn to run out the door, I was kitted out with my bar, appropriate weights, matt, etc.

A few minutes later all participants were in the room and ready to go.  The music was all encompassing and the vibe was super energetic.  Before I knew it I was doing my best lunges, squats, deadlifts, bicep curls some crunches and so pre-occupied with keeping up with everyone, the next minute time had flown by and the class was finished.  I felt great and everyone in the room was super supportive of the beginner in the room.

It's important to remember when you are at the gym that everyone in there at some point was a beginner at their chosen activity, especially if you are prone to feeling a bit intimidated.  

One of the advantages of joining Goodlife Health Clubs and in my case Goodlife Health Club, Mermaid Waters, is the capacity to go to a wide range of classes. The variety of classes on offer test your body in various ways and you can pick which class you wish to go to, in light of your ebb and flow, wellness level or the wellness level you are pursuing.

My Overall Experience, Body Pump Class, Goodlife Health Club, Mermaid Waters

It was perfect, music was stimulating, air in the room was fortifying. How testing was it? It tends to be just about as trying as you'd like it to be, with the capacity to stack or dump any load you'd like. Impressive all over body exercise, sore in all the right places the next day. Would I join the body pump class again, totally, it was so motivational.
