Wow, go you!! A friend just did it and she said it was a killer but great fun!
Round 2 tonight, think the music was a bit better but did the hour session (with lunges) OUCH!!!!! Had to revert to squats! It's really tough.

I know a coue of girls that did it this year, they said it was crazy but really good fun! Maybe one day...
Went back for round 3 of pump and I'm really enjoying it now, well the shorter class at least ;-)

Really like the new combat although the Beethoven track is somewhat naff!

was the les mills GFX03 yesterday in Sheffield, epic!
new body pump- shoulders. serious pain there, familiar with bottom halves yes, but top halves in shoulders.... OUCH! tip - go slightly lighter than normal. you will get DOMS after it.
triceps- more pain....
did 3 pumps yesterday, wasn't even using max weight and it was tough. prepare for pain after this release guys
remember this too, single single double. its a link in all the newest programmes

Are you trying to instill fear in us Gina?!!
I went back last week after a 4 week break (holidays then illness) and it was torturous. Had DOMS for days after but surprisingly found I needed to increase my squat weight! I love this current release with the exception of lunges.
Had to skip this morning as woke with a horrendous shoulder pain that I can't shift
Ibuprofen and paracetamol for breakfast!!

I've been doing pump for about 6 weeks now, recently increasing to twice a week. The lunge track for me is hell, I can't do it without weight, let alone with it!
Instructor said the new shoulder track was insane, something like 32 overhead presses. Surely they must realise most people cannot do that, not even with a 2.5 at each end?!
Not tried any of the others yet as trying to do C25k as well but maybe I will in the new year
