I'm not sure which workout would be best for me. I'm worried about the equipment that is required for body beast because I live in a small apartment (grad student). Also, body beast seems to be geared towards men (judging from the commercial videos). Thoughts? I need a steady weight lifting program because I won't have access to the school's gym this summer. Thank you! :flowerforyou:

    There is a HUGE difference in the two. I have completed Pump and I'm on Day 51 of Beast right now.

    LMP is low weights, high reps set to music. (In one 55 minute routine, you do over 800 reps) The trainers are fun, upbeat and cheer you on. If you purchase the set, you have everything you need to complete the 90 days. You get the feeling it is geared more towards women, but men do the course too. I did it as an intro to weights since I had never done any lifting before.

    Body Beast, although it is geared towards men, I know many women doing the program. But, the trainers are three guys lifting big weights for smaller reps (15, 12, 8) The gear is the big thing with Beast. You need a weight bench or stability ball. You need a good selection of dumbbells, some type of bar (straight or EZ curl) with weight plates and a chin up bar or resistance bands with door attachment. The Beast is an awesome program if you have the gear for it.

    Hope this helps some.
