BodyStep by Les Mills – a full-body workout that will help tone up your entire body, combining step exercises with cardio moves.
Included with membership at the Village Gym Portsmouth.
Les Mills BodyStep in our Portsmouth gym will help you step up your game and engage yourself in a workout that helps the whole body. While the class has a focus on lower body muscle groups such as the calves, thighs, and glutes, it does also workout the core, arms, and shoulders due to the nature of the weight plate exercises. This helps you build up functional strength and muscular endurance while you burn off that stubborn fat.
Every BodyStep class at Village Gym Portsmouth is designed by fitness experts and led by professional instructors to make sure you get the best out of every workout. BodyStep consists of a blend of both cardio workouts and workouts focussed on building/toning muscle such as plate weight exercises, bodyweight exercises, push ups, step ups, burpees, and more.
Come along and get your step on to some bopping tunes and playlists to reach your fitness goals.
Les Mills BodyStep began when Les Mills designed the first class back in the 1990s. Originally, the class was designed to provide the high-energy, high-intensity workout of aerobics with the benefits of weight lifting. Not long after the first classes, BodyStep exploded in popularity around the world and remains a mainstay class in gyms and for personal trainers across the globe even to this day!
Les Mills BodyStep is a great class for beginners and fitness professionals alike; it is a great way to stay fit and have fun. BodyStep classes help to develop:
Cardiovascular health. When it comes to improving cardiovascular health and elevating your heart rate, BodyStep is fantastic at both. Keeping your heart rate elevated will help train your heart muscle and improve heart function. This improved heart function leads to better circulation, which is crucial for delivering oxygen to muscles throughout your body. Ultimately, enhanced cardiovascular health is essential for anyone striving to achieve their fitness goals.
Toned muscles. BodyStep incorporates plate weights and bodyweight exercises to effectively build and tone muscles. From your glutes, thighs, and calves to your core and upper torso, Les Mills BodyStep is a fantastic way to enhance and maintain muscular strength and definition. While the class has a focus on the lower body muscle groups, the upper body gets a workout too.
Improved balance and coordination. The bodyweight and plate weight exercises in BodyStep are brilliant for helping you improve your balance and coordination. BodyStep requires you to adjust your balance to compensate for the added weight, which can be challenging if you're new to the exercise. This constant adaptation is crucial for improving your overall balance and coordination.
Weight management. For those wanting to lose a few pounds or burn off that stubborn fat, BodyStep is great for helping you do both. Each BodyStep class will help you accelerate your metabolism, leading to increased calorie burn and weight management. This is perfect for those on a weight loss journey.
