Whether you’re serious about fitness or just looking for an effective workout, there’s a new trend that may soon come to a gym near you. It’s called BODYCOMBAT and is just as intense as it is effective. The BODYCOMBAT workout was designed by instructors at the Les Mills gym, which was named after a famous New Zealand track and field athlete.
Although the name might sound scary, there isn’t actually any combat or striking involved, so the risk of injury is low. You don’t need any experience in martial arts to enjoy it. BODYCOMBAT is essentially an aerobic routine consisting of martial arts moves, including punches, kicks, jumps, and lunges. The routine takes moves from karate, taekwondo, kung fu, boxing, and Muay Thai.
