Has anyone taken a class called Bodypump at the gym. It is a class that involves weights and is really challenging. It is trademarked and is supposed to be offered around the US. I was wondering how to log it in the exercise log.

  • I do the class 3 times a week and love it! The website for Body Pump says you can burn up to 600 calories during the class but I usually log it under circuit training and think its about right as far as how many calories I burn.

    I used to love body pump! Then I got bored of it (unfortunately as it's such a damn beneficial workout!).

    I have never in my life been more sore than the first time I did body pump but it's amazing how quickly your body gets used to it :)
