    I'm doing a body pump class for the first time in a year this eve. Any tips on how I can avoid the terrible DOMS (delayed onset muscle soreness) I usually get when starting out?

    Sorry, just saw this. Hydrating and stretching brgore hand with a protein based breakfast helps. And bananas a great to eat before a work out !! Go light on the weights to start. Then adjust accordingly. If you don't lift weights and you are just starting pump, post soreness is inevitable unfortunately. Protein shakes also help with recovery and muscle building ! I usually do a scoop or two (depending on the intensity of my workout) 30 min to an hour after pump!

    But in reality, that looks pretty cool!

    Yep, when I first saw the name I assumed it was pronounced Frenchly, but no. It's some guy whose name is Les.

    Hi! Just found your post.. I'm a Les Mills addict! Combat, Attack, Pump, RPM, and my favorite..Grit Strength and Cardio! Grit is very expensive for Gyms to have. Something like $1,700 per month, just for one location. My local Gold's is awesome, but they only have one location offering grit. I go out of my way for these!
