Description of the group fitness program Body Pump


Greetings to everyone who loves sports, health and a beautiful body. Today we will touch on an incredibly effective type of training, which is undeservedly deprived of popularity in the CIS countries. Pump or pump aerobics is the ideal combination of strength training and aerobics, which allows you to benefit from both types of exercise.

If you still believe that it is impossible to build muscle and burn fat at the same time (a popular misconception), then you probably haven’t tried a body pump. In this article I will talk about all the advantages of pump aerobics, the principles of constructing the training process and other features that will help you achieve an ideal figure and good health.

What it is

Body Pump (or simply pump) is an effective technique that can be called a strength-training branch of aerobics. It is calculated:

  • To improve tone and muscle volume.
  • To eliminate excess fat.
  • To strengthen the body and general health.

By the standards of modern fitness trends, pump aerobics is an intense and energy-consuming sport. The entry threshold for full-fledged long-term training is quite high, but today almost all clubs have groups for beginners, so difficulty will not be a serious obstacle.

The main difference between body pumps and other areas of fitness is the intensity of the training. It is achieved not by increasing the weight of the weights, but through almost continuous work (with minimal rest) and a large number of repetitions.

Moreover, during training, all the muscles of the body are involved in the work (I especially want to highlight that the movements in the pump are basic in nature, isolation exercises are not used). This type of work provides not only a powerful hormonal response, but also increased calorie expenditure. As a result, pump aerobics increases muscle mass and burns fat.

In most cases, pump training, like any type of sports aerobics, is carried out in a group format. No one will stop you from performing any pump complexes at home. To do this, it is enough to have a barbell or a pair of dumbbells, as well as a step platform (although if you really want, a couple of water bottles will do instead of weights).

Brief history of origin

The rights of the creators of the method belong to the Les Mills International brand, which was created by Philip Mills (the brand is named after Philip’s father, a famous New Zealand track and field athlete). This company brings together professional trainers, sports doctors and other specialists to develop innovative training methods. Body Pump was the company's first method, which appeared back in the 90s of the last century, although the program became popularized later.

A big leap in the development of pump was the adaptation of training to the conditions of ordinary fitness clubs and even at home. This was also facilitated by the development of functional sports.

Currently, Les Mills is a world-famous brand that has patented techniques (not counting the classic body pump). They are actively used in various sports: from correcting excess weight to training professional fighters.

The essence of training

The main goal of training is to perform almost continuous work with alternating intensities.

Often the training load alternates. For example, after performing a long strength complex of one or a couple of exercises, an active rest phase follows (to restore breathing and energy). During this phase, athletes perform exercises without weight (most often these are complex movements, from side-stepping lunges to burpees).

In addition to performing the required volume and sequence of exercises, an important task in pump training is to work in high pulse zones. This promotes fat burning and does not interfere with exercise to gain weight.

The entire workout takes from 45 to 60 minutes, including the warm-up and cool-down phase.

I want to immediately clarify that a body pump is not an ordinary pump in the bodybuilding format. Moreover, this is not the typical circuit training that is often used in the gym for weight loss. Pump is a special technique where exercises occur in strict sequence.

Every season the body pump program is updated, this includes changes in training patterns, exercises and even music. Therefore, it is important to immediately understand that pump is a technique that is built on science and years of practice, and not a banal series of exercises. It can only be like this in the hands of non-professional instructors.

Let's summarize and list the main advantages of the pump method:

  • Varied and exciting workouts (group exercises accompanied by dynamic music).
  • Simultaneously develops aerobic endurance, strength, coordination and balance.
  • Strengthening the cardiovascular system.
  • Development of muscles (although you will not achieve excessive hypertrophy, as in bodybuilding; rather, we are talking about the natural volume and general aesthetics of the figure).
  • Quickly burn excess fat.

I also want to note that the body pump method is designed for the general public, therefore it implies gradations of complexity. They manifest themselves both in the intensity of training and in the combination of exercises. The initial level of pump is accessible to almost all people, regardless of age and physical fitness, but more professional programs may seem difficult even for advanced athletes.

What muscles work

In order not to list all the working muscles, I will say briefly - the whole body works in the pump, and this is not an exaggeration. This is “built into” the essence of the pump method, which involves performing the most functional, energy-consuming and complex movements. Therefore, one of the main advantages of the program is the most comprehensive development of the body (not only all muscles, but also abilities). During body pump classes, even those muscles that are not included in the work during regular workouts in the gym will be used.

During most of body pump training, athletes actively work their core muscles in an active or passive mode. Therefore, a body pump is one of the best training options for men who want defined abs.

Kinds

When it comes to the types of pumps, even among trainers there is often confusion, which is associated with the spread of misconceptions. I want to upset those who signed up for various techniques in the style of X-pump and other similar names. This is not the original pump at all and may have nothing in common with the original workouts developed and continually improved by Les Mills. More often, such moves are used by fitness club chains to attract customers.

The reason for the tricks is simple - Body Pump (this is the name of the real pump program) requires mandatory certification of trainers at Les Mills, as well as the acquisition of a license to conduct classes. Unlike some “pamp” that was launched at a local fitness chain. Therefore, if your trainer cannot show such Les Mills certification, then you are training using an interpreted method, which may be very different from the original pump.

Among these are the following areas:

  • Pump Challenge.
  • Pump and Shred.
  • Pump Revolution (in Russia it is often called “longer” because of the maximum duration of the lesson).
  • Pump and Burn.
  • Flow.
  • Pump Extreme.
  • Pump Basics.
  • Hardcore Abs.
  • Sports Attack.
  • Les Mills step.
  • Combat.

Advantages of the Body Pump strength complex

Body Pump workout
What can be attributed to the undoubted advantages of the popular trend?

  • First of all, Body Pump ideally combines aerobic and strength training components. This is achieved by combining a high tempo of exercises and moderate weight of the barbells, and the result is the loss of extra pounds and the formation of a beautiful muscle relief.
  • Body Pump is able to find an individual approach to people with very different physiological constitutions and physical fitness. Thanks to the stable release of new versions of the system 4 times a year (now their number is approaching a hundred), any training involves a constant transition to the next load levels as soon as the previous one is mastered.
  • Body Pump is designed to work not with problem areas, but with all muscle groups as a whole. Only in this case can we talk about the effectiveness of the classes - which, in fact, was known in the East even during the emergence of ancient gymnastic systems and martial arts.
  • An important point (especially for women) is the fact that even the most intense exercise will not lead to excessive muscle growth. This requires completely different power loads - both in terms of the weight used and the duration of fixation of the weight.
  • At the same time, adjustment of the weight of the barbells, starting from a certain period, can be done without direct instructions from the instructor - the body itself will tell you what load becomes comfortable for it.
  • The Body Pump system is universal, which means it is completely suitable for both men and women.

Is it suitable for those losing weight

More than suitable. Pump is a super effective way to lose weight. It eliminates the main drawback of any fat burning program - loss of muscle mass.

Almost all fitness programs that are aimed at losing excess fat will inevitably burn out your muscles. Even regular jogging is not without this drawback. In pump aerobics there are no such losses, since strength exercises are performed to a greater extent with minor weights (insignificant - from the point of view of those already training, for beginners they can seem very heavy).

For example, girls squat with a weight of 20 kg, and for the bench press they take a barbell with weights of about 12-13 kg. Dumbbells in the body pump are used with a weight of 5-7 kg, sometimes barbell weights (2.5 kg) are used.

I want to assure you that body pump is more effective than most types of cardio and is almost twice as effective as regular aerobic training. The fact is that for effective fat burning you need both strength and long-term low-intensity loads.

The goal of strength work is to force the body to respond to stress by releasing large amounts of hormones (which will effectively burn fat even during a period of rest). They break down fat deposits and “release” fats into the bloodstream, after which they are used by muscles. And here the role of long-term cardio comes into play, since it is during aerobic exercise that the fat that is in the muscles burns. This tandem in the body pump ensures maximum speed of loss of excess fat without reducing (and even increasing) muscle mass.

Indications and contraindications

The list of indications for the pump is quite large and significantly exceeds even classical fitness.

The main indications include:

  • Correction of the figure and getting rid of excess fat.
  • A significant shift in the balance of fat and muscle mass (I want you to understand that the pump is not just a weight loss program, the technique is aimed at developing the entire body).
  • Strengthening the cardiovascular system.
  • Strengthening the immune system.
  • Increased endurance.
  • Improved muscle tone.
  • Prevention of physical inactivity.
  • Improved coordination of movements.

Contraindications should be divided into two categories:

  1. Absolute.
  2. Conditional.

With the first category, body pump classes are completely prohibited; with the second, compromises are possible (in the form of special groups or reducing the load).

Complete contraindications include:

  • Chronic diseases in the acute stage.
  • Pregnancy period (1st and 3rd trimesters) and breastfeeding.
  • Oncological diseases.
  • Hypertension and other problems of the cardiovascular system.

Conditional contraindications include problems of the musculoskeletal system (admission to training is assessed individually, depending on the state of health), varicose veins and too low a level of physical fitness.

The classic pump is quite complex in terms of intensity and load, so beginners may need to strengthen their muscles and cardiovascular system before starting to train using this method. The preparation period usually lasts from 2 to 6 months, although in special body pump groups for beginners the adaptation process may occur faster.

Benefits and harms of body pump

Assessing the pros and cons of pump aerobics, I can safely agree that Les Mills is not in vain known throughout the world and is considered the training elite. The program is truly built on science and numerous sports studies, and then adapted to people with different levels of physical fitness. The number of advantages many times overshadows any possible disadvantages, most of which are leveled out with a competent approach by the trainer to building a training scheme.

The clear advantages of pump include:

  1. Simultaneous muscle growth and fat burning.
  2. Generally accessible to people of different ages, levels of physical development and sports experience.
  3. Significant development of strength and aerobic types of endurance.
  4. Development of coordination and balance.
  5. Prevention of many diseases - from prostatitis in men to hormonal changes in women (I want you to understand that this is not about treatment, but about prevention).

There are only two disadvantages to the body pump method - the lack of experienced trainers and the complexity of classes for beginners. The first disadvantage can be corrected by enrolling in a gym that officially works with Les Mills and has certified trainers, and not some “author’s” techniques with a similar name, like Power Pump and others. The second disadvantage is solved by preliminary preparation, when you do not immediately “dive into the hole,” but gradually prepare your heart, muscles and central nervous system for the loads of a body pump.

Benefits of Body Pump Training

The benefits of Body Pump are so great that it's hard to resist the temptation to try the workout for yourself. After all, a number of advantages have made such intense power aerobics so popular all over the world. They are:

  • A complex approach. Synthesis of aerobic, strength exercises.
  • A fast pace of movements that will allow you to get rid of a couple of extra pounds and give your body a toned and slender look.
  • Exercises are updated every 3 months. In this situation, your muscles do not get used to one exercise, and the workout becomes more varied.
  • An hour-long exercise involves all the muscles of the buttocks, back, shoulders, legs, and arms.
  • Pump training is suitable for absolutely everyone. People who are not able to immediately start exercising with a heavy load can perform exercises with an empty bar.
  • Adjustable load intensity. You can increase or decrease the weight of the dumbbell at your discretion.

The simplicity of the exercises and smart approach will allow you to achieve an ideal healthy body. The benefits will make you think about the opportunity to join the ranks of those who have already experienced the effectiveness of the developed body pump program and start training.

How to practice at home correctly

Les Mills has an entire course designed for home workouts. It includes videos, theoretical materials and everything that can replace a trainer at home. But the course costs a lot of money, so it’s better to go to a one-time lesson (usually they are free), see the essence of the training, and then simply adapt the principles of the method to training at home. Next, I’ll look at an example of body pumping at home, which can be a good starting point for beginners.

Necessary inventory and equipment

Pump is an unpretentious sport when it comes to extra expenses. All you need for training is comfortable clothing and minimal equipment.

Suitable for body pump:

  1. Barbell (Olympic bar is not suitable for body pumps, “home” or EZ bars are required).
  2. A pair of dumbbells.
  3. One or two weights of the same weight (we are talking about small weights for aerobics and body pump).
  4. Sandbag (or one sandbag attachment, from 5 to 15 kg).
  5. Step platform (or any replacement thereof).
  6. If you have a desire to train, then the pump method can be used even without special equipment. Several bottles of water are suitable for this (6-8 liters to simulate a barbell and 2 liters for each hand).

There are no special restrictions regarding pump clothing. The T-shirt and pants/shorts should be comfortable, absorb sweat and not interfere with movement. Shoes - regular sneakers with soft soles (gel, foam or similar) and foot cushioning. Any special shoes, like the zpump from Reebok (who made a body pump model), are not necessary. This is ordinary marketing and such shoes do not provide a real advantage in body pumping.

Nutrition and supplements during exercise

The food should be dietary, there is no need to adhere to strict diets, you will already spend a lot of calories in the pump. But some supplements are preferable; they will help provide the body with everything it needs for training and recovery.

I consider the main additives for pump:

  1. Protein - for obtaining amino acids.
  2. Creatine - increases endurance and strength.
  3. BCAA - will help to further protect muscles from destruction during body pump training (can be excluded by replacing it with an additional portion of protein an hour to 30-60 minutes before training).
  4. Isotonic - to replenish electrolytes during training.

Vitamin-mineral complexes and omega-3 would be preferable for a pump, especially if you train in the autumn-winter period, when the diet is less varied. If you lack energy, you can use green tea extract or capsule caffeine.

Where to start first

I recommend starting your journey into body pumping by becoming familiar with the essence of the technique, its features and the principle of constructing the training process. If you work out in the gym, then the trainer will explain all this.

Pump workouts always begin with a full-body warm-up for 5-10 minutes, where attention is paid to each muscle group and joint group.

Number and duration of training

In body pump there is no single template, as in fitness - “go to the gym 3 times a week and work out for an hour.” Everything is determined by the features of the program, the intensity of classes and training in each season. But a certain standard in pump still exists. The duration of training rarely goes beyond 20-55 minutes, depending on the type of activity. And the number of workouts per week varies from 2 to 3 (2 for beginners and 3 for advanced).

What time to train

There is no single answer because everyone's biorhythms can be very different. The greatest productivity is demonstrated by:

  • Training in the morning (from 10 to 12 o'clock).
  • Evening classes (from 17.00 to 19.00).

It’s better to schedule pump classes around these hours, or do them when it’s convenient and you have the strength.

Review and testing of the ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero motherboard (page 6)

Monitoring system


The board has eight 4pin connectors for fans (several high-power ones for CBO pumps).
In addition to them, ASUS left an option in the form of expanding the number of fans. EXT_FAN is a connector for connecting a daughter board that adds three more turntables to the system. It is noteworthy that the company paid attention and prescribed the exact loads for all connectors, and also indicated exactly which fans are controlled and how. Although some values ​​​​do not coincide with reality.

  • CPU_Fan – up to 1 A and 12 W, supports control via Q-Fan;
  • CPU_Opt – up to 1 A and 12 W, supports control via Q-Fan (the setting is only available in ASUS software, the option is not available in the BIOS);
  • CHA FAN1 – up to 1 A and 12 W, supports control via Q-Fan;
  • CHA FAN2 – up to 1 A and 12 W, supports control via Q-Fan;
  • CHA FAN3 – up to 1 A and 12 W, supports control via Q-Fan;
  • AIO Pump – up to 1 A and 12 W, does not support control via Q-Fan, the maximum voltage is always supplied (there is a setting in the BIOS, you can select the link to the processor temperature);
  • W_Pump – up to 3 A and 36 W, does not support control via Q-Fan, the maximum voltage is always supplied (personal setting in the BIOS is combined with the AIO Pump setting);
  • H_AMP – up to 3 A and 36 W, supports control via Q-Fan.

The monitoring and fans section contains settings for the latter. And on the main page you can see the current parameters: voltage, speed of connected fans or pumps.

There are more tabs in Q-Fan Configuration, and for automatic configuration you need to use the Q-Fan Tuning mode. The board itself will test the capabilities of connected models and create profiles with optimal settings. In manual or semi-manual mode, go through the Chassis Fan(s) Configuration and Ext tabs.

  • W_PUMP+ Lower Temperature - the minimum temperature at which the pump speed will be set as a percentage of the maximum speed;
  • W_PUMP+ Lower Duty Cycle % - pump speed as a percentage of maximum speed.

Conclusion

The ASUS ROG Maximus X Hero motherboard can and does overclock absolutely everything - from the processor to RAM - and does it perfectly. You just need to know which slots to insert memory modules into, but this is described in detail in the instructions (second and fourth slots). Ready-made profiles for DDR4 are working, but it’s easier to do it yourself.

Surprisingly, the seemingly simple power supply scheme worked perfectly. At first there was a lot of joy in the LLC work function. Then I liked the additional option in the BIOS for setting up Svid. And in conclusion, the correct operation of XMP while maintaining the required range of processor multipliers.

As for overclocking itself, the only limiting factor is the processor's capabilities. Under load, the motherboard cooling system does not overheat, demonstrating the best performance among previously reviewed Intel Z370 motherboards.

There are few comments on the results of the review, and none significant at all. For some reason, the engineers placed the power/reboot/Safe_boot and Retry buttons very close to each other and created some confusion with the description and configuration of the fan connectors. Otherwise there are no complaints.

Behind the scenes

Correct technique and basic body pump exercises

Maintaining the correct technique is the main element of successful bodypump training. Given the high intensity and duration of classes, as you get tired, the technique in the exercises may deteriorate, so you must monitor your every movement.

Basic body pump movements include:

  • Barbell presses (performed both lying down and on a step platform).
  • Shvung press.
  • Squats.
  • Lunges.
  • Bent-over barbell row.
  • Romanian cravings.
  • Broach.
  • Barbell curls for biceps and presses for triceps.
  • Abdominal exercises.

Also often used in the body pump are planks, plyometric movements and various variations of all of the above exercises (with changes in grip, speed of execution).

Upper body programs

Coming to a sports club is associated with a specific goal: to tighten the buttocks, pump up the abs, biceps, etc. In any case, to get results in the shortest possible time, you need to select one of the Upper body fitness programs. To correct a specific area of ​​the body, you need to focus your efforts on specific muscles.

To correct problems in areas above the waist, the best choice would be the Upper body ABS complex, aimed at developing the muscles of the chest and back, abdominals, shoulders and arms. Contains exercises, the purpose of which is to qualitatively work out these particular muscle groups. Exercises consist of basic and isolated ones. During training, special equipment is used. The maximum effect is achieved by alternating modes when performing simple exercises. Improvement in posture is observed already during the first lesson, if the selection of exercises is done correctly.

Upper body programs

The Upper body stretch program is a universal set of exercises. Its goal is to strengthen the muscles of the upper body. For classes in this program, the level of physical fitness does not matter. The result will be:

  • beautiful posture;
  • slim stomach;
  • flexible and elastic muscles and ligaments;
  • improved mobility of articular joints.

A harmonious combination of strength approaches with stretching strengthens the muscle corset, helps get rid of back pain, and find a great mood.

Upper body video classes

Sample workout program at home

It is almost impossible to post a complete body pump workout program. Firstly, because pump is a licensed commercial product, and secondly, because it would be necessary to describe dozens of different training programs and hundreds of exercises (it’s not for nothing that they are sold only on DVD). I will give an approximate pump program for different levels of training as an example to understand the methodology itself.

For beginners

An example of body pump training for beginners. All exercises are performed in two approaches, 45 seconds each. The break between approaches is 15 seconds. Rest between exercises - 30 seconds. Exercises without changing the tempo are performed at an average speed, no more than 3 seconds for both phases of movement. Try to select a weight that will allow you to perform all the exercises in this mode until muscle failure.

Pump training scheme:

  • Warm up.
  • Bent-over barbell row.
  • Trusters.
  • A series of lunges on each leg.
  • Bench press at a slow pace (4-5 seconds lowering and explosively raising the bar).
  • Jumping up in place.
  • Pushups.
  • Swing to the sides while raising your arms up (with dumbbells or weights).
  • Burpee.
  • Press press (the lifting phase is forced, the lowering phase is slow).
  • Twisting.
  • Leg raises while lying on a step platform.

For advanced

The body pump program for advanced people often includes different cycles with changing load, tempo and other conditions. To master the program, it is executed one by one, one cycle after another. For each exercise, 45 seconds of work and 15 seconds of rest are allotted. Rest between cycles - 2 minutes.

For groups more experienced in body pumping, the first two cycles are performed 2 times (that is, 1, 2, 1, 2, after which the third is final). On the second repetition of the first and second cycles, all exercises are performed at the same pace, without delays or forced movements. Rest between exercises is 30 seconds. By this time, the muscles will be tired and acidified, so the use of various pump techniques will be unnecessary.

This is an example of an advanced body pump program.

First cycle:

  • A combination of a bent-over barbell row with a biceps press (the row is performed first, then the press, after straightening the back).
  • Alternate stretching with a push press.
  • Squats with alternating tempo (1 very slow through three fast).
  • Back lunges on each leg.


Second cycle (adds weight on the bar):

  • Squats with increasing speed (squats are performed from ultra-slow at the beginning to very fast for the last repetitions of the set).
  • Bench press on the steppe (1 slow through 3 fast).
  • Bent over arm abduction (triceps).
  • Slow barbell lift for biceps.

Third cycle (repeating the second with less weight on the bar).

Final cycle:

  • Jumping jack.
  • Standing power jumps.
  • Step platform push-ups.
  • Bent-over dumbbell raises.
  • Side crunches.
  • Leg raises in a lying position.
  • Plank with alternating support on the palms and elbows.

After the main body pump workout, stretching is performed on all muscle groups (2-3 minutes).

Video tutorials Les Mills in Russian

For those who don't really want to think through their workouts, there is a ready-made option - a series of Les Mills videos on disc or in digital format. A complete workout guide, music and instructions are included, along with proper exercise technique.

Training in specialized gyms has one important advantage - the programs are updated every season, and micro-changes are made in almost every training session. Therefore, this training option will be preferable if assessed from the point of view of maximum benefit.

Reviews and results

Oleg: “Before the body pump I did bb and thought that I was in good shape. At the very first training session, the pump died and suffered severe soreness! And this is after three years in the gym! After 5 months, the mass did not fall off, but the fat was very noticeably gone and the abs were clearly visible for the first time.”

Diana: “I absolutely love the fact that body pump training is done in large groups. There are 20 people working in ours, 4 of them are my friends. In the fitness club, everyone goes alone, but here we train as a single unit. It’s not only the coach that really pushes me, but also keeping up with others. I often caught myself thinking that I was working up a sweat just to keep up. Pump is super!”

Vikusya79: “I study at home. I didn’t make up my mind right away, but I finally bought the basic body pump course. I thought it was just another program that is sold everywhere. But in the end I didn’t regret it. Now my collection includes basic and advanced body pump courses. I don’t go to gyms; there are no qualified trainers in our area.”

Photos before and after

Photos of physical metamorphoses from pump exercises clearly show the effectiveness of this technique. This is the best confirmation of the professionalism of Les Mills and the fact that body pump is not a hyped dummy, but a truly innovative course.

Body pump – what is it in fitness?

Doing fitness is fashionable, interesting and healthy. Those who want to get an incomparable sculpted figure, those who want to lose weight, and simply those who strive to always be in shape go to sports clubs.

Nowadays, every fitness club strives to offer clients as many different workouts as possible. Body pump quickly found itself in the leading position. This situation is due to the fact that this is a highly effective workout that combines elements of strength and aerobic exercise .
