Zumba not cutting it...anyone tried body body combat!?!

[JO28172]

I've tried 2 different Zumba classes and still am of the mind it's not enough intensity..fun..nice..but I want to come away shattered!

Next mission...thinking body combat..anyone tried this? If so be great to hear your comments

I will keep on trying all the many classes out there until I find the one that works for me!! However crazy it turns me lol x

Yep I love body combat. Spinning / rpm is fantastic too. You can work at your own pace but if you push yourself you will burn loads of cals, you will sweat and you will feel shattered!!

I love the martial arts. I've done several of them and I think I like Kung Fu and Thai Kickboxing the best. TK is faster and more intense but Kung Fu is deceptive. It feels really slow but at the end you feel like you went ten rounds against a gorilla

Best of all, at the beginning levels, there's no actual contact so no fear about what it might do to your insides until you're confident they can take it...

Have you had a look at bokwa? That's supposed to be a mix of dance and combat x

All i can say is come to our Zumba class EVERYONE finishes sweating and shattered !!!
Body pump s great for toning up but body combat does not appeal to me but go for it if you like the look of it
Have you had an assesment at the gym lately ?? you may need your settings changed and other things added, im due one soon as im finding a lot of it getting to easy.
Sometimes its less high impact and more intense low impact that does the most

I don't even go to the gym Hun, so never been assessed, all what I've done has just been off my own back. Off to try it in 50mins!

Hi Jo,
I love combat and hope you did too. I've done it for years on and off and think the results are fantastic! Also body attack is a great calorie burner!
Let me know what you thought! I'd better get my butt back to it too!

Love Combat - Zumba - Yoga - Body pump and for the more elderly of us...aqua aerobics!! I do get scared in Body combat though as one of the girls (not even the teacher) is a black belt master so does all the shouting with it! I do have to move away from her as I keep thinking she is going to come at me with one of those poles like in Pink Panther!!
Good luck and enjoy! x

Jo started this thread in June, she has already partaken in body combat
