What Is LES MILLS BODYPUMP HEAVY™?
For over 30 years, Les Mills has created some of the most popular group fitness workouts on the planet.
Millions of people around the world know and love LES MILLS BODYPUMP™, the iconic barbell workout designed to build lean muscle and strength endurance.
Now there’s a powerful new addition — and members across West Wood Club are already experiencing the results.
LES MILLS BODYPUMP HEAVY™.
This exciting new class takes the energy and motivation of group training and combines it with slower, heavier weightlifting designed to build serious strength.
Instead of racing through high repetitions, BODYPUMP HEAVY focuses on:
The result?
A workout that builds real strength, lean muscle, and measurable performance gains.
It’s traditional strength training.
But delivered with the music, coaching, and energy of a world-class group fitness experience.
Why BODYPUMP HEAVY Is Different
Traditional BODYPUMP focuses on the famous “Rep Effect” — high repetitions using lighter weights to develop muscular endurance and tone.
BODYPUMP HEAVY takes a different path.
It slows things down.
It lets you load the bar heavier.
It allows your muscles to work harder.
And it gives instructors more time to coach technique and form.
The result is a workout that feels powerful, focused, and incredibly effective.
Think of it as:
Strength training — made simple.
You will perform classic barbell movements that quickly get results:
Squats
Deadlifts
Presses
Rows
Lunges
Core work
Now you train with controlled tempo, heavier resistance, and a relentless focus on real strength.
This is lifting with purpose.
Weight training with precision.
And body sculpting with total confidence.
Serious Strength. Without the Intimidation.
One of the biggest barriers in weight training is something called “gymtimidation.”
Many people want to lift heavier weights…
But they feel unsure about technique. Or nervous about using the weights area. Or simply intimidated by the idea of strength training.
BODYPUMP HEAVY changes that completely.
Because you are never training alone.
You are training:
This combination makes weightlifting safe, structured, and accessible for everyone.
Beginners can start light and focus on learning technique.
Experienced members can challenge themselves with heavier loads.
Everyone progresses.
Everyone gets stronger.
What Results Can You Expect?
Let’s talk about results.
Because that’s what most members really want.
The beauty of BODYPUMP HEAVY is that it delivers real, measurable strength gains while still keeping the fun and energy of group training.
Members who train consistently can expect:
Increased Strength
Slower lifting and heavier weights challenge your muscles in a completely different way, helping you develop real functional strength.
Lean Muscle Development
Tempo-based strength training stimulates muscle growth and improves body composition.
Greater Training Confidence
You will learn proper weight training technique under expert coaching.
Improved Sports Performance
Stronger muscles improve performance in sports, running, cycling, tennis, swimming, and everyday life.
Faster Metabolism
You boost your metabolism, increase calorie burn, and support long-term fat loss with strength training.
A Stronger Body
Not just visually. But structurally. From bone density to posture to core strength.
This is the kind of training that changes bodies.
The Power of Group Energy
If you’ve ever taken a Les Mills class, you already know something powerful happens when people train together.
The energy builds.
The music drives you forward.
The instructor pushes you further than you thought possible.
That’s the magic of group fitness.
And BODYPUMP HEAVY captures it perfectly.
Traditional strength training can sometimes feel solitary.
But this class transforms lifting into a social, motivating, high-energy experience that keeps you coming back for more.
You push harder. You lift heavier. You finish your workout feeling stronger, proud, and energised.
Perfect For BODYPUMP Fans
If you already love BODYPUMP…
You’re going to love this class.
BODYPUMP HEAVY is not designed to replace the original class.
It’s designed to work alongside it.
BODYPUMP builds muscular endurance. BODYPUMP HEAVY builds strength.
Together they create a powerful training combination that allows members to:
In other words…
You get the best of both worlds.
