RPM 45 - Sizzler

RPM™ 45 is all about creating awareness of how to use resistance. Show your class how much resistance to use, how to find it, what it feels like and what the benefits are. Also coach your class to ride fast – find the working load and ride the beat! Set off on the open road to the uplifting classic Life Is A Highway. Your heart rate will pick up in Track 2 with three fast sprints and one small climb.

Use this track to find the right working load. Listen to the lyrics in Track 4! Take a leap of faith and close your eyes when you hit the fast sprints to All On Our Own by New Zealand band Midnight Youth. Power equals force times speed. The more resistance you use, the further distance you are going to travel and the more calories you’re going to burn. So switch on to power up! Track 5 is all about razor-sharp attacks. Don’t be fooled by the fun nature of The Prodigy’s Piranha – this is intense and you will be challenged! Quadruple resistance turns and Standing Attacks will push your heart rate through the roof. Speed is the focus for Track 6. Gradually increase your leg speed to this iconic RPM™ track – Bruised Water by Chicane featuring Natasha Bedingfield. Switch from speed to strength in Track 7. Look out for the heavy Power Climbs!
Recover to The Man Who Can’t Be Moved from Irish band The Script. Let the heartbeat drop before stretching and lengthening your muscles to Adele’s beautiful Chasing Pavements.

BodyAttack 67 - Sizzler

BODYATTACK® 67 is about having fun and finishing the class together as a team! Chart-topper Closer by Chris Crew will get the show on the road leading into the huge hit for track number 2, Release Me . Amp it up in Track 3! Turn up the energy and make the moves bigger in four blocks of work. There is a new combo consisting of three Knee Crossovers and two Single Knees. When you’re ready, add a turn! You’ll finish off this track with 30 seconds of Jumping Jacks to Gimme More. Surrender to the music and Rock It to your peak in the insanely intense Track 4.

Single Lunges, High Knees and Jumping Jacks will push your heart rate through the roof! Come down to the floor to get some Boom Boom Pow in your shoulders, chest and triceps with Pushups, before getting ready for the second cardio block. First, be Number 1 on the studio floor and then it’s off to soccer practice. The class splits into two squads for some agility training and football-inspired moves. Get ready – you are now entering the high-energy phase of BODYATTACK®! Take Me To The Clouds Above will inspire you to reach the clouds and take the intensity higher than you have ever been before! Stay in the zone to push your body through Tuck Jumps, High Knees and Jumping Jacks, while singing along to the cover of The Cranberries’ monster hit Zombie.

BodyPump 72 - Sizzler

BODYPUMP® 72 is all about making your class stronger,faster. How? By focusing on Bottom Halves and Partial Range movements, the rest phase is eliminated and the muscles are kept under tension for longer. Look forward to a challenging workout and an overall strength blast where active recovery is your only break! Brace your abs and prepare for more Bottom Halves than you bargained for in the Squats Track. Kelly Clarkson will motivate you to keep going with her huge hit I Do Not Hook Up. New Zealand’s own Dane Rumble sings Track 3 – Always Be There. Bottom Halves and Slow Bottom Halves will put your chest muscles under tension for a little bit longer than usual. Ouch! The good news is this will give you results faster. The Triceps Track is sweet like Sugar! Again, Bottom Halves are the name of the game.

Challenge yourself and go a bit heavier than normal in the rocky and upbeat Biceps Track. The Bicep Row returns, attacking your guns from a different direction. It’s back to the legs in the intense Track 7. The Lunges stick with the theme of the release – you guessed it – lots of Bottom Halves that will push up your heart and burn calories. The
Shoulders Track is a tribute to the legend that is Michael Jackson – make sure you watch the DVD for this one! The range of motion in the Singles has been shortened to ¾ Range. Grit your teeth and hang on! Ciara and Justin Timberlake will take you through the Abdominals Track with Love Sex Magic. The mix of deep, lower abdominals work and the Walking Hover will chisel your six-pack and at the same time strengthen your core.

BodyCombat 42 - Sizzler

The Muay Thai inspired BODYCOMBAT® 42 transports the class to Bangkok! This release will take you on a Martial Arts journey, from Karate and Tae kwon do to the boxing ring. Fight your way through and hope you’ve got enough left in the tank for the epic Muay Thai onslaught that is Track 7! Sing along to Kelly Clarkson’s I Do Not Hook Up while warming up with Side, Front and Roundhouse Kicks.

Then get ready for Karate and Tae kwon do in a battle of Martial Arts in Track 2! Find out how fit you really are in Track 3. Boxing is the name of the game in six rounds of interval training. You are in the ring and you don’t stop!

Watch out for the new move in Track 4 – the Sweep will knock your opponent out of the way and work your inner thighs at the same time. The class splits into two groups for some social interaction, fighting style, before you’re whisked away to Brazil. You will be practicing the art of defense and attack in authentic Capoeira to The Prodigy’s Warrior’s Dance. Now, what we’ve all been waiting for – eight minutes of Muay Thai! This track will transport you to a dark fight club in Thailand and push your heart rate to unknown heights. It would be a Miracle if you could do the last Power Training Track with the same energy you started with. Your speed and endurance are certainly tested in this track.

BodyCombat 41

The theme for BodyCombat 41 is 'Backyard Brawl'. Numa Numa (also in BodyAttack 66), in a O-Zone (Dragostea Din Tei) remix, will prepare you for the workout ahead starting the upper body warm up with a jab, cross and bob combo. Kelly Clarkson's My Life Would Suck Without You take cares of the lower body with a back kick in the warm up.

The first combat starts with a treble elbow and double knee combo, just think on We Will Survive from BC 37 this time on Music Is Pumpin by Radical Rhythm.
Track 3 is all about the contrast between speed and power, Slow & Steady Rush by Random Attack, a remix of Faith Hill’s Breathe

As a usual format since BodyCombat 37, track 4 has an intermezzo. It starts with Enter Sandman by Spock, and features a new move a double handed plyo push followed by a push kick. In the intermezzo (P.O.D’s Boom ) the track continues with a ginga – knee combination, to build up via a ginga - side kick combo to the ginga – evasive side kick. This gives you the feeling of two totally different workouts. It’s an opportunity to show what you’ve got, ready or not! As for the evasive side kick it always gives mixed feelings, it is an impressive kick to see, but difficult to perform. For this reason Dan decided to modified the e-kick as he feels that not everyone could jump that high while doing the kick. So it's just a little hop instead of a super high jump that was used to do previously.

Flush your legs and spike your heart rate in track 5 with three rounds of boxing, running is the keyword, as you will do a lot of running forward and back. Ballroom Blitz is featuring again in this release, as it is recycled form BodyCombat 6. The chorey is not a brain training, quite similar to Tutti Fruitti of BC 40.

Tae Kwon Do is in the house in track 6. For the ladies imagine you just went summer sale shopping and your both hands are full with bags. Four opponents appear . . . you don’t put this expansive bags just on the floor do you ? No, you fight them with your legs ! With the secret being to strike like a cobra. Similar to Shut Up and Drive from BC 34 but this time a side kick, knee, back kick and another knee (instead of the step in BC 34). I’m pretty sure you will entertain them on Robbie Williams’ Let Me Entertain You.

Track 8, the wall of fatigue which you can’t go over, you can’t go under it, … you just have to punch through it ! Cascada is back again, to take down the house during this last power track, with What Do You Want From Me … answer: to give everything, the sky is not the limit go beyond it !

For those who are doing BodyPump 71 and BodyAttack 66 the next song will be very familiar for the next few months. Here in BodyCombat, Flo Rida feat. Kesha will spin you Right Round while your abs are blasted with a lot of circle sit-ups.
The well deserved cooling down by Beyonce's Halo has a new stretch called the downward dog which focuses more on the hamstrings and the back of the legs.

BodyCombat 40 - Sizzler and tracklist

Celebrate 10 years of your favorite Martial Arts-inspired program with BODYCOMBAT® 40! A great mix of Martial Arts disciplines will ensure you’re challenged both physically and mentally with a larger variety of Strikes and Blocks to really keep you on your toes. There’s a great mix of old and new styles of music with a couple of bring-backs, a nod to the past and a hint of the future.

By the time you reach Track 2, you’ll have experienced Kick-boxing, Karate and Tae Kwon Do, and you’ll be ready to pull out your best Bruce Lee or Jackie Chan impersonations to I Know Kung-Fu. The Boxing ring beckons in Track 3 before your legs are challenged in Track 4 with three conditioning blocks – first the Kick KATA followed by the Esquiva, then the Jump Kick is unleashed. Let loose and have fun in Track 5 with Tutti Fruitti but don’t be fooled by the sing along nature of the song – you’ll be firing up the energy and throwing some power shots. Refocus your technique and re-center in Track 6 to Nickelback’s Burn It To The Ground before the onslaught that is Track 7. Speed by name, speed by nature – you’ll be unleashed in the Descending Elbow Sequence. There’s one goal in Track 8 and that’s to completely empty the tank – you’ll punch until you can’t punch any more. In Track 9 there’s a new move – the Komodo Dragon. It’ll challenge your core to the max but fear not – recovery is near with soft KATAs to Kings Of Leon’s hit Use Somebody. Stay with the fight!

Tracklist (draft version)

BodyAttack 65 - Sizzler

BODYATTACK® 65 is about challenging yourself and your members, and providing enough options so everyone can achieve their personal best! The music will keep your energy levels high and you’ll be moving continuously with hits from Fall Out Boy, Vanessa Hudgens and Lady Gaga.

That’s Not My Name provides the perfect energy for Track 2. This track has something for everyone with numerous options for both beginners and advanced members. You’ll be on fire in Track 3 with a huge amount of energy coming from the big moves and big music. You’ll reach your first peak with the new Squat Jump in Track 4, Tubthumping, before hitting the upper body with the Walking Back & Forward Plank in Track 5. This is a different way of conditioning the core and shoulder girdle stabilisers with gentle lengthening of the hamstrings as you move backwards and forward. Sing along to Rhythm Of The Night in Track 6, while getting up close and personal with your members as the class comes together on the floor for the Running Track. There’s work to be done in Track 7! Welcome on the tennis court! Be light and lifted in the Run and low and strong in the Bounces, like you’re waiting for a serve! Track 9 is challenging, with the energy pumping all the way from start to finish, but you’ll be motivated to keep at it with the aptly named Jump. An awesome peak for an awesome result!

BodyPump 70 - Sizzler and tracklist

The key focus of BODYPUMP® 70 is perfect timing. This means your body spends more time under tensionand this will get you in shape fast! The music in this release really ‘goes off’ – keep an ear out for beats you’ve never heard before in BODYPUMP®.

Game on in the Squat Track! Challenge yourself with more resistance. Don’t be fooled by the slow start and the Pop-Rock nature of the track – the back half bites hard with four sets of Singles and Bottom Halves back-to-back to finish! Go a little bit heavier in the Chest Track – Infinity 2008 is awesome and builds anticipation before you pump it! The new tempo means your muscles will be under tension for the maximum amount of time.

True Believer will inspire you to give it all you’ve got in the Back Track, before Christina Aguilera’s Keeps Getting’ Better drives you through the Triceps Track. You don’t need your bar but get ready to feel the burn in the Pushups and Kickbacks! Rock through the Biceps Track with Nickelback’s Gotta Be Somebody where Singles are the name of the game.

Take a deep breath before the Lunge Track. Sash! is back for this endurance track that is VERY intense and includes Lunges and Squats with a heavy weight. Ouch! Another classic Rock track is in the house with Thunderstruck motivating you through the Shoulders Track. There’s a new move in the Abdominals Track – the Rotator Plank. Kanye West’s Love Lockdown is unlike any Abs Track – get ready for a dark, dim, sexy beat!

BodyCombat 40 - 10 years

Thanks to Glen and Raina:

It is obvious from the start that this release is all about one big combat party! Presenters were Dan and Rach, Hernan and Tanya Walker from the UK.

Overall Glen really enjoyed this release - a lot more than he enjoyed BodyCombat 39. The complexity is a little higher than in BC39 (well, that wouldn’t be hard at all!), but again we have no evasive side kicks, no jump knees and no gingas.

The esquiva is back - and unusually it’s in track 4 (which means all you esquiva fans could do two esquiva tracks per class when you start mixing). Track 4 is a rock track with an esquivas/lunge/jump kick combo on the right hand side, which then goes into tubthumping in the middle - before going back into the rock track for the esquiva combo on the left (think a la We Will Survive from BC37).

Highlight for Glen is track 6 (and that’s odd because track 6 is usually one of his least favs) - there is a really cool side kick kata. Track 5 is great too - tonnes of performance opportunities with the Tutti Fruitti "a-whap-bap-ba-loo-bap a-whap-bam-boo!" (with everyone in the room throwing their arms up on the "BOO!") - felt a little like BodyAttack but heck that’s forgivable in a track 5. There are loads of jump jabs going forward and shuffling back.

The Muay Thai is probably the only track that perhaps is a little disappointing, the song is good ("Speed" - no idea who it is by but could be Nick Skitz or similar) but the chorry is d-u-l-l. It is literally just knees and descending elbows (addition - there are some streetbrawler downward punches in as well). Glen found it one of the easiest Muay Thais he has done (if not the easiest).
No crunches in the conditioning track again (weird two releases in a row) but again we have the hover and a new move the "komodo dragon" (think press up position bringing your knee to elbow, sounds to me like the upper body condition sometimes done in the BodyAttack).

Cool down is beautiful (with a lovely song "Use Somebody") and there are some great soft kata's to lower the heartrate. Fantastic end to the workout.

Overall, a great release. Nothing new (save the komodo dragon), nothing revolutionary but a decent workout and not totally basic chorry as was the case with BC39. The release is definitely not as hard as BC38 nor BC37 for example - no killer kick katas with 200 or more kicks but I think a solid release.

Preliminary tracklist:

1a: Layla (Caribbean Mix) - DJ U Hey vs DJ Minagawa from Skitzmiz 30
1b: Hot n Cold - Katy Perry
2: I Know Kung Fu - Shitdisco
3: Sweetheart (Squad-E Remix) - Rezonance-Q from Hardcore Til I Die
4: Is a mix of one rock track I don’t recall, then Tubthumping by Chumbawamba, then back to the original song
5: Tutti Frutti - Little Richard
6: Burn It To The Ground - Nickelback
7: A techno track called "Speed it up"
8: Set you free - N-trance
9: Let it Rock - Kevin Rudolf
10. Use Somebody - Kings of Leon

Ciproxine en sport

Ciproxine en sport, intensieve cardiosporten zoals BodyCombat en BodyAttack (dus geen darts, biljart of kaarten :)), zijn niet de goede maatjes. Hiervoor zijn verschillende redenen. Ten eerste verzwakt het antibioticum de pezen en vooral de achillespees. Dus als je reeds last hebt van je achillespees bestaat er een reëel risico dat deze spontaan ontsteekt en zelfs bij sporten gaat scheuren.

Het tweede zeer leuke neveneffect van antibiotica is dat ze niet alleen de infectie bestrijdt, maar ook nog eens je goede cellen plaagt waardoor je conditie zo goed wordt als die van een schildpad die net een marathon heeft gelopen achter een oude, roeterende diesel. Dat heb ik woensdagavond in de BodyCombat aan den lijve mogen ondervinden al na de eerste cardio. There is no turning back, maar ik moest even mijn back turnen om onder de zuurstoftent te kruipen en de hartslag terug een beetje te laten dalen. En dan ga ik nog maar zwijgen van what’s hurts the most .... de downward punches doen niet op het gezicht van je tegenstrever, maar ... op het puntje van je eigen tong : )

Enige voordeel dat deze antibiotica geeft is het feit dat het je immuun maakt voor een aanval met Antrax. So come on Al Quida show me your balls.

Een ander voordeel is dat je zonder een hartslagmeter te dragen perfect weet dat je hart klopt en hoe. En nee het is dan niet omdat er mooie vrouwen (meervoud anders kom ik waarschijnlijk in de problemen) in de buurt zijn.

Piet zou zeggen wa hemme we vandaag gheleerd ?

Ten heerste: Dat ik misschien maar beter eens kan luisteren naar mijne dokteur
Ten twheede: Dat we het nog twee weken rustig aan moeten doen
Ten dherde: dat het dan nog eens twee tot drie weken duurt eer de conditie van die schildpad weg is

BodyCombat 39 - Sizzler and tracklist

Picture yourself fighting one-on-one in the cage – Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) style – and that’s BODYCOMBAT™ 39. You’re going to learn the skills you need to hang on until the last round so get ready for some combo-heavy tracks and lots of repetition.
To get a taste of an authentic UFC you’re going to need to get warmer faster as ultimate fighters are among some of the fittest athletes in the world. So that’s what the Warmup is all about, with a focus on keeping light on your feet.

Get ready for one of the longest combos ever seen in a Power Training Track in Track 3 – can you believe there are 16 Punches in a row? The power for the huge combo comes from the core of your body and motivation from rocking track Come With Me.

Two different types of energy are needed in Track 4. The Knee Combo is fun and light but you’ve gotta be tough during the Back Fist/Side Combo. Scooter vs. Status Quo’s Jump That Rock (Whatever You Want) harnesses the energy perfectly.

There are six solid rounds of identical choreography in Track 5 which also features the Power Squat. Pink’s in the house in Track 6 and you’re gonna want to start a fight during So What. There’s no recovery and you’re trying to knock your opponent out with every punch!

A new move, the Step Over Cross, features in Track 7. This is awesome as it can be used in both an offensive and a countermove situation. Make sure you hold something back for the last 60 seconds of continuous Knee Strikes!

Your muscular endurance is certainly tested in Track 8 where the challenge is to never step out of the intensity. Track 9 is void of conventional Situps and instead uses the Hover and Side Plank to work all of the core muscles. The apt lyrics of Infernal’s I Won’t Be Crying help you through this intense track – even though you might feel like crying by this stage!

01b. Calling All Lovers - Rogue Traders
02. Cum On Feel The Noize - Group X/HeavyDance 2
03. Come With Me (Unique Mix) - Styles & Breeze
04. Jump That Rock (Whatever You Want) - Scooter vs Status Quo
05. Johnny B Goode - The Undertow
06. So What - Pink
07. Hardcore Angel - Nick Skitz
09. I Won’t Be Crying - Infernal
10. It’s All Coming Back To Me Now - Meat Loaf & Marion Raven

BodyPump 69 - Sizzler and tracklist

BodyPump 69 is a strong, intense release that you’re going to learn fast and have fun with! The music is pumping with awesome tracks from Fall Out Boy, Pink and Rihanna, motivating you to really challenge yourself – and your class. The squats track is tough but, as the song suggests, it really gets the party started! There are three blocks of work and in each block the legs are pre-fatigued with bottom halves before the singles.
The chest track is short, simple and hard. Fall Out Boy’s rocking track I Don’t Care provides the momentum needed to get through more killer bottom halves before you start the good, honest, back work in track 4. It’s a classic track with three sets of identical work.
Pink’s huge hit So What ensures the biceps track is oozing attitude – this song is definitely the fun peak of this release! It’s another short, intense track but you’ll feel the burn in the bottom halves. There’s a new move in the lunges track – the three quarters squat. Coming up threequarters of the way in the squats means the load is kept on the leg muscles and boy, does it hurt!
And there’s no relenting of the pain in the massive shoulders track which features two supersets. You do three exercises back-to-back to challenge the shoulders in a slightly different way. Don’t be fooled with the cool feel of Kid Rock’s All Summer Long in the abdominals track as there’s a strong core challenge ahead, before you catch your breath and cool down to the smooth sounds of Let Me Be Myself by 3 Doors Down.

01. Better In Time - Jamie Knight
02. Get This Party Started - Dan Winter
03. I Don’t Care - Fall Out Boy
04. Castles In The Sky - Liz Kay
05. Shut Up & Drive - Rihanna
06. So What - Pink
07. Stand Alone - Dyce
08. All I Ever Wanted - Basshunter
09. All Summer Long - Kid Rock
10. Let Me Be Myself - 3 Doors Down

BODYATTACK 64 – My First Impression

BodyAttack 64 komt me niet over als de hero release die men zegt. De muziek geeft je verre van de vibes die je kreeg (krijgt) van BA63. Het voordeel van de agility-track is dat hij eenvoudig maar effectief is, zodat de coördinatie zelfs voor een man (ikzelf dus) haalbaar is :). Deze keer dus geen drie of vier lessen de kat uit de boom kijken om de beweging onder de knie te krijgen.

BODYATTACK 64 - Sizzler


BodyAttack is called the hero release! It's all about finding the hero within - to be the very best you can be to improve your own fitness goals. It's bursting with innovations and great music to help you achieve your own superhero potential! Mike Stone's cover of Bridge Over Troubled Water has you singing along and having fun from the beginning. Track 2 is all about different directions and has a new combo - the gallop & u-step curl. Your mission in track 3 is to have a great time with more energy! There are plenty of options and the song Do You Wanna Funk? provides a little funky fun. It's time to reach your Superman potential in track 4 with the superhero hop curl in the knee hops. This is your first peak so use maximum effort and maximum power while pulling your best hero pose. There's a new move - side step & jump.

There's a new move in track 5 too - the crab crawl. This is a great way to improve core stability and shoulder strength so that you can do BODYATTACK forever! Katy Perry's Hot n Cold provides the inspiration you need to get through those 24 pushups in a row to finish the track! Get ready to fire out of the starting block in track 6 before the room is split in track 7 for some bootcamp-inspired training. Each team has a different exercise at the same time - the rules are to work at your own pace and intensity.

Track 8 is all about interval training before track 9 - the dramatic peak of the second cardio fitness block. Here you become a fitness hero to the motivating song I Need A Hero. The pain doesn't let up in track 10 but remember - it's got to hurt to work! You use strength to define your legs with the triangle, before shaping and defining your abdomen to Rihanna's Disturbia which is the super-villain in this release.
