GRIT STRENGTH: GRIT workouts are the LES MILLS take on high-intensity interval training. GRIT STRENGTH is specially designed for HIIT-style toning and strengthening. It enhances your strength, cardiovascular health, and lean muscle growth. It blends barbell, weight plate, and bodyweight exercises all into one. This class is scientifically designed to engage fast-twitch muscles and burn fat and incorporates motivational music.

BODYPUMP (Standard and Express): BODYPUMP is a super cool barbell class that works out your whole body, burns calories, and even strengthens your core. It's all science-backed with a technique called THE REP EFFECT, which means using lighter weights but doing a ton of reps. This approach gets you that toned, athletic look and even boosts your metabolism. This full-body weight training workout is designed to strengthen your muscles from head to toe. LES MILLS BODYPUMP is available in both standard and express sessions to meet your workout needs.

LES MILLS CORE: Six tracks to a six-pack. Looking for a short, sharp workout that will inspire you to the next level of fitness, while strengthening and toning your body? Les Mills CORE is for you! Les Mills CORE really hones in on the torso and sling muscles that connect your upper body to your lower body. It is ideal for tightening your tummy and butt, while also improving functional strength and assisting in injury prevention. The best bit? No matter your fitness level, there's something for everyone. Plus, it's not just about the abs; it'll tighten your tummy, butt, and even help prevent injuries.

BODYCOMBAT (Standard and Express): BODYCOMBAT is a high-energy, martial arts-inspired workout that empowers you to punch, kick, and burn up to 570 calories in a non-contact class. Learn moves from Karate, Taekwondo, Boxing, Muay Thai, Capoeira, and Kung Fu, targeting every muscle group for a whole-body workout. Unleash your inner warrior, release stress, and feel like a champ in this fiercely energetic session. BODYCOMBAT is available in both standard and express sessions to meet your workout needs.

BODYBALANCE: LES MILLS BODYBALANCE is a cutting-edge yoga class designed for everyone, combining simple yoga moves, elements of Tai Chi, and Pilates to enhance your mind, body, and life. With an inspiring soundtrack in the background, expect to bend, stretch, and build strength while focusing on controlled breathing. Whether you're new to yoga or looking for variety in your practice, BODYBALANCE can help improve flexibility, increase core strength, and reduce stress levels. Wind down, stretch, find your center, and improve your flexibility while challenging your muscles from head to toe.

For Pump, Combat, CX and Sh'Bam, I use the 'Cardio' workout, and then later rename it to the relevant Les Mills workout. This works for me, as it gives me all the useful metrics including HR, calories and time. It also gives some useless metrics such as elevation (but I choose to ignore this, it doesn't bother me to have this information in there).

I think the question is how do you measure the essence of a body pump session? As a "cardio activity", it's an hour in HRZ 1/2/3, mildly aerobic and zero anaerobic, yet my limbs are dropping off with lactic burn!!! I don't think there is a good activity measure for this. The answers here let us record the activity like a diary event, but they don't help us measure the true activity.

You're so right! I'm new to Garmin and enjoying it but so disappointed about this. I do loads of Les mills and CrossFit-type classes and Garmin just can't handle them at all..! Really disappointing. I should have done better research, I thought they were better at this stuff but this is basic..

I teach the classes and get a little annoyed I can't track them properly. HR doesn't really help. In the case of pump, it's lifting to a big degree, but extremely different than a normal lifting session and should be accounted for properly within Connect so the overall training metrics would be more correct. Especially when being combined with the typical running, biking and swimming. I'm sure the body battery, training effect and so on isn't correct after recording the class as cardio.

I'll also hold small pump weights or use my own weighted gloves during combat (don't knock it till you try it) for a little endurance in the back and shoulders. And I'm pretty sure that doesn't get accounted for properly under cardio.

I like everything else about my Fenix, well mostly, but still wonder about trying a watch that incorporates LM into their activities. Honestly, it wouldn't be hard for them to add in the activities. Having gone to LM Live the other week, 7hrs of classes really didn't have the effect in Connect it should if it could have been recorded properly. And thus it drags down your overall metrics because it doesn't show the work you put in.

Challenging but achievable for every fitness level. Build strength, stability and endurance in the muscles that support your core, improve balance, assist injury prevention, and become better at anything you do. Starts January 16, 2023.
