Can we make a Les Mills on demand thread?

986 replies

Upsidedownrightnow · 05/06/2020 14:54

I'm just wondering if others are using Les Mills on demand and if we could maybe check in with each other to discuss what we are doing and what our goals are etc?

I am trying to loose 1 stone and doing 5:2 but i eat too much on my non-fasting days so I don't really loose any weight, so I'm adding exercise in the hope of shifting some weight Smile

So far I have done bodycombat 3 times this week for about half an hour each and some weights and flexibility training, but I think from next week I will be adding in bodypump

Is anyone else using this? I am really enjoying it so far Smile

@sociallydistained it was 9pm Monday night BST. If you follow Rachael Newsham on insta then it popped up as a reminder. She said there was another one in the diary for July, and that she would try to arrange a live sh’bam too at some point.

You have to join the les mills Live streaming Facebook page I think. Actually, you can probably get a replay in that page too, though it’s not quite the same.

@gingerscot Gutted I missed this again. What time was it? I really just do the next one... hope she does another!

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 20:21

@nbee84 it's fab isn't it?? It's always my highest calorie burner

nbee84 · 02/07/2020 20:02

@MozzchopsThirty - I did your combat 66 tonight, great fun 😀 and I burnt 560 calories!
I haven't done pump for a couple of days as I'm hoping to beat my 5k run time tomorrow 🤞

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 18:36

GrinGrinGrin that sounds like perfection

Lottapianos · 02/07/2020 18:04

Good call Mozz! Sometimes that's just what your body needs. Mine needed cake and chocolate this afternoon Grin back to Body Pump tomorrow!

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 16:55

Decided against any exercise today! I need a rest

gingerscot · 02/07/2020 16:18

@scullie I think I’ll carry on with LMOD too, it’s so much easier to just nip to the next room when I have some time from work. I got the mirafit pump equipment and it does the job well.

Did anyone else join Rach for the live streaming combat on Monday night? It was fab, I think she said 80k people had joined.

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 14:24

@jerometheturnipking @Lottapianos thank you

I might go for a light jog then and have a really good stretch after Smile
I'll do another body pump tomorrow then when hopefully I'll be recovered

sociallydistained · 02/07/2020 12:29

Ben featured my story on his Instagram story! It's just a copy of my game changer print out with some ticks Grin I completed week one.

Today I have CX Works which I hate and have completely avoided mostly but here it is in this plan and I know it has good benefits. And benefits I need as I hate anything with core hence why I hate it. I will probably do Combat after it as it's next on the list and have a rest day tomorrow. Wish me luck

jerometheturnipking · 02/07/2020 10:50

Yeah I second that suggestion. A short body balance session if you really feel the need to do something “proper”.

Lottapianos · 02/07/2020 10:48

Mozz, I would go for a nice long walk if you can, followed by some stretching. No lifting today

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 10:20

Do you continue to exercise when suffering DOMS? I don't know whether to have a rest day today after 3 days in a row

Any suggestions??

jerometheturnipking · 02/07/2020 10:20

@Upsidedownrightnow I’m in Scotland - some of our LAs started their holidays last Friday but that’s us until the 12th of August now.

@WeKnowFrogsGoShaLaLaLaLa ah I always forget about the remixes! I’ll have a look at those. One of my favourite combats is the Fight Club remix.

WeKnowFrogsGoShaLaLaLaLa · 02/07/2020 10:04

@jerometheturnipking - I've been doing 111 for the last month, I love it but need to mix it up a bit now. I'm doing the pop party remix today.

Fairybatman · 02/07/2020 10:04

I don’t know what it is about pump but nothing else I’ve ever done has the same impact on thighs!

WeKnowFrogsGoShaLaLaLaLa · 02/07/2020 10:03

Morning All! Heavy day for me. Starting a new Bodypump class, will do a Sprint and a BodyBalance class too.

I've been combining this with a decent diet and my weight loss/change in shape has been epic. Although none of my work clothes now fit. 😂

i will give combat 66 a try on my next combat day Smile

and i will try body combat 111 today.

@jerometheturnipking- your summer holidays are starting early? are you in the uk?

@fairybatman - I was the same when i first did like half an hour lower body bump but now i don't seem to ache so much.

First pump this morning since before lockdown, and my thighs are like jelly already. Just dropped into my office chair like a stone Grin

jerometheturnipking · 02/07/2020 09:17

I’m interested to hear about favourite Pumps too 😊 my current favourite is 111 - the tricep track doesn’t have tricep push ups, the music is good and it’s a good mix of presenters (although no KG). But I haven’t tried that many different ones out because of the fear of not liking it as much.

I’m just about to do the 55 minute 111 before taking on our last day of home school before the summer holidays 🥳🏋️‍♂️

MozzchopsThirty · 02/07/2020 08:54

Combat 66 is my best and the one I can burn most calories to.
It's just Rach & Dan and more old skool Grin

I'd also be interested in the favourite body pump, I've only done one and my legs are still killing 2 days later

What's everyones favourite body pump? I'm lookong for a 55min one.

I love body combat 78 has anyone done that one? On the last tesco when we are all tired Marlon is giving this inspirational speech while we work out 🙂 it's actully really nice.

I think i prefer it when they arnt in the mountains or middle of the water 😁

@scullie thank you I will check out decathlon

I just watched a few of the intro the grit ones in bits. I am now terrified. Grin

jerometheturnipking · 01/07/2020 23:28

I had a day off today but back on it tomorrow Smile I tried Combat 76 the other day after it was recommended here and I think I need another shot now the choreography isn’t completely new to me to decide on how I feel about it.

flatoutpanic · 01/07/2020 22:48

Don’t know what a ‘tested run’ is... terrifying thought!
