HOW OFTEN SHOULD I ATTEND?

You’ll feel real benefits from coming to a class just once each week but consider attending some other cardio classes too (e.g. Body Attack, Zumba, Body Fit, Body Combat, Boxercise), plus some strength and conditioning work such as Bums & Tums or Body Pump. Adding flexibility work such as Pilates or Body Balance will result in a fabulous, integrated workout.

WHEN WILL I NOTICE RESULTS?

Once you’ve started BODY ATTACK CHALLENGE you should see improvements in your level of fitness within about six weeks. As you progress you should also experience fat loss and improved muscle tone, especially when combined with a calorie controlled diet.

BODY ATTACK CHALLENGE... WHAT'S THAT?

BODYATTACK CHALLENGE is a simple, high-intensity group fitness class that’s fully optioned to cater for all levels. You’ll experience a high-energy workout for cardiovascular fitness, along with upper and lower body conditioning exercises for building strength. A new BODYATTACK CHALLENGE class is released every three months with new music and choreography.

SO DESCRIBE A TYPICAL CLASS

BODYATTACK CHALLENGE is designed around a 45-minute class incorporating tracks from Body Attack plus a Attack specific circuit. Each circuit station and Body Attack track has a different exercise focus to challenge your cardio fitness and stamina, and is made up from a selection of the following:
Warm-up - The focus in the opening track is on big, simple aerobic moves to get the body warm.
Mixed impact - This track will take you through an increasing range of moves and foot strikes, preparing the body for the aerobic action ahead.
Aerobic - Step up the intensity and range of movement and get into your personal training “zone” ahead of the peak track to follow.
Circuit Training - A variety of non complex, high intensity exercise to increase your fitness, shape, tone and strength
Plyometric - This is where the class hits its first intensity peak, putting the body under load through quick-fire plyometric exercises often used in sports training.
Power - The final peak where you dig deep and push through powerful moves for maximum effort.
Lower body conditioning - Time to recover the heart rate while conditioning the lower body for great shape, condition and tone.
Cool-down - Congratulations, you made it. Time to recover and stretch.

HOW DO I DO BODY ATTACK CHALLENGE SAFELY?

Your teacher is there to make sure you do everything correctly, but try to remember:

  • Good posture is the foundation of all exercise.
  • Focus on learning the right technique at the beginning.
  • Work continuously at perfecting your technique.
  • Perform the movements with control – smooth actions, not jerky.
  • Always keep your joints slightly bent, don’t lock out your arms or legs.
  • Listen to your body, it will tell you if something is not right.
  • Body Attack Challenge should feel challenging, but at any time you need to take a rest, that’s fine!

BODY ATTACK CHALLENGE is for everyone with moderate fitness levels. Because the moves are simple you don’t need to be especially well coordinated. Some muscle pain is natural at first, especially if it’s the same on both sides of your body. This is muscle soreness. Muscle soreness is typical when starting out on a training programme and normally occurs 24 to 48 hours after exercise. If you have pain down only one side or in the joints, check with the teacher. If the pain continues, see your doctor. 

BODY ATTACK CHALLENGE TESTIMONIAL

"I used to be a member of an expensive, plush health club which is located near my place of work. I went along to Rachael’s Body Attack Challenge class for what was going to be a one off whilst I had a week’s holiday. I was totally blown away by the quality of teaching and the amount of effort the instructors gave.

I had been paying over £60 per month at the gym for what I now consider to be a very average service. After attending a few more of Rachael’s classes, I cancelled my health club membership and now pay £30 for a 4-week pass at Rachael’s classes.

I realise that fancy sofas and a member’s bar are not everything! I am serious about my exercise regime, and I like that Rachael and her team of instructors are serious about helping you achieve you goals. I have experienced more weight loss, shape and tone in the last 3 months than I had in the last 2 years at the gym. Thank you!"
