Hello and welcome to BODYCOMBAT™ 53! This round is going to challenge your fitness level more than ever before wtih huge sounds and even bigger innovations!
We created this class specifically with the knowledge that it would challenge you more than usual, and, therefore, we have created as much magic and downtime as possible within the class to increase achievability and enjoyment.
Before we talk about that though, check out the ed session on the DVD! You will be AMAZED by what you are actually doing to your core in a regular BODYCOMBAT™ class.
And once you’ve done that, get into the release because it’s a good one!
Highlights include an amazing remake of Shine On with a sped-up combo that will shatter your core before you’ve even hit Track 4. Euphoric feel in Track 2? Check.
Now if you will follow us to Track 6, Swagger Jagger combines a fun, fresh sound with some crazy choreography. Watch out for the Jump Knee – this WILL hurt tomorrow.
And just one more heads-up for you all – Bangarang in Track 9 is possibly the coolest and most demanding core track ever seen in BODYCOMBAT™. The combination of the Oblique Shredder and the Intensity Ladder will literally rip your core to pieces and have you coming back for more!
Keep It Real And Stay With The Fight!

BODYCOMBAT™ Presenters
Dan Cohen (Ne w Zealand) is co-Program Director for both BODYCOMBAT™ and CXWORX™, an International Master Trainer for BODYPUMP™, and a passionate mixed martial artist based in Auckland.
Rachael Newsham (New Zealand) is co-Program Director of BODYCOMBAT™ and Program Director of SH’BAM™, based in Auckland.
GET FIT TOGETHER RESEARCHPUTTING LES MILLS™ GROUP FITNESS CLASSES TO THE TEST.Dr Jinger Gottschall, a Professor of Kinesiology at The Pennsylvania State University in the United States, embarked on a 30-week exercise intervention using the LES MILLS™ Group Fitness programs because we wanted to demonstrate that Les Mills’ diverse class formats promote heart health, improve muscle mass and enhance physical as well as mental balance with their quality instruction and safe technique.
Despite the shocking global statistics – 1.5 billion adults are overweight, 500 million of them are obese – the World Health Organization understands that many of the diseases caused by being overweight cannot be cured by diet alone. In fact, respiratory fitness – the ability of the heart and lungs to work together effectively – is the best way to reduce the risk of heart attack, which continues to be the number-one killer in Western countries. That is why health organizations around the world recommend 60 minutes of cardio-respiratory activity 3 to 4 days a week, 8 to 10 muscular strength exercises 2 days a week, and 60 minutes of flexibility exercises 1 day a week.
We followed these guidelines when we selected 25 healthy but non-active adults, between the ages of 25 and 40, for our 30-week exercise intervention.
We split the 30 weeks of training into3 blocks.
As these participants were not currently active, we introduced the classes slowly in order to prevent injury and enhance retention, for a 6-week familiarization period. Because the first 6 weeks of any training schedule is crucial to success and endurance, we will wait to share the details of this protocol next time. The results will change the way you deal with new people in your classes – so make sure you check out that session in the next release.
After that first 6 weeks of familiarization we were into the full training protocol – we did this in two 12-week blocks.
As we wanted to match the guidelines promoted by health organizations, for the first block of 12 weeks, the participants completed 2 strength – that’s 2 BODYPUMP™ classes, 1 flexibility – 1 BODYBALANCE™/BODYFLOW® class, and 3 cardiovascular classes, choosing between BODYATTACK™, BODYCOMBAT™, RPM™ and BODYSTEP™.
In the second block of 12 weeks, they increased their cardiovascular classes from 3 to 4 a week and maintained their schedule of 2 BODYPUMP™ classes and 1 BODYBALANCE™/BODYFLOW® class per week.
© Les Mills International Ltd 2012
At the beginning, middle and end of the study we measured participants’ physiological and musculoskeletal health, with a treadmill walk to test their aerobic fitness, blood tests to measure their cholesterol levels, and a body composition iDXA scan to look at their bone density as well as body fat. They also completed surveys after every LES MILLS™ class, as well as at the end of every week, so we could assess their psychological state – their interest, motivation and effort during the classes, together with their mood, energy and stress levels away from the classes.
THE RESULTS WERE TRULY INCREDIBLE.The participants increased their heart and lung efficiency by 57%! Along with this, they gained 4 pounds (1.8 kg) of muscle and lost 12.5 pounds (5.6 kg) of fat. At the same time, their total cholesterol decreased by 16%. Together, these results tell us that these individuals have avoided getting cardiovascular disease by 3.6 years, just by doing 30 weeks of classes.
And all this as a result of LES MILLS™ classes alone! We did not ask them to change their diet in any way.
ONE OF THE REASONS FOR THESE IMPRESSIVE NUMBERS WAS THE HIGH LEVEL OF COMPLIANCE. The enjoyment levels the participants reported during their 6-week familiarization protocol not only continued but actually increased during the rest of the study. They gained confidence inside and outside of the class environment as they mastered the formats and saw their own physical transformation. They also reported fewer incidences of depression and anxiety with each week of activity.
So – let’s summarize the 3 key messages from this research:
1 We know the Les Mills approach works – the classes create significant physiological, musculoskeletal and psychological changes in people’s health.
2 Beginners can enjoy group fitness as their interest increased while their stress decreased throughout the 30 weeks.
3 A gradual introduction over a 6-week period gets people hooked.
With these results, you can promote yourLES MILLS™ classes with even more confidence, knowing that they are scientifically proven as an effective and enjoyable way to meet recommended exercise guidelines and achieve maximum health.
Please make sure you check out the session in the next release to hear the full details on how to get beginners hooked into classes over the first 6 weeks – you can then achieve the same results that we did in this study in your home town.

CORE ACTIVATIONIN BODYCOMBAT™Core training is vital to whole-body health. It provides us with stability, helps with balance and can assist with injury prevention. And, we all know also that the best way to develop core strength is through Crunches, right? Perhaps not!
You can get all the core training benefits of doing over 1,700 Crunches without having to do a single Crunch.
YOU JUST NEED TWO THINGS:
1 Reactive Core TrainingReactive Core Training is what happens when you exploit your body’s muscle wiring and natural reflexes. Picture it as a kind of default training setting for your core, an automatic reaction that happens when you perform a series of simple, repeated movements.
2 BODYCOMBAT™We’ve always known that when we Jab, Kick and do High Knees in a BODYCOMBAT™ class that a lot of the power and force for those moves is coming from the abs.
WE’RE GETTING MORE ACTIVATION IN OUR CORE WHEN WE DO MOVES LIKE JABS AND FRONT KNEES THAN WE ARE WHEN WE DO CRUNCHES.How do we know this?We recruited 20 participants, including BODYCOMBAT™ instructors, to perform all the moves from BODYCOMBAT™ 51 and compared the activation levels from these moves to those of
the Crunch. In every comparison, muscle activation levels were a lot higher in BODYCOMBAT™ moves such as Jabs, Kicks and Knees than they were in the Crunches. These are exciting results, that’s for sure!
IN BODYCOMBAT™ 51, THERE ARE 280 ALTERNATING FAST JABS. SO EVERY BLOCK OF JABS CREATES AN EQUIVALENT OF 1.62 CRUNCHES – THAT’S THE EQUIVALENT OF 182 CRUNCHES.The most activation came from doing two Alternating Front Kicks – again, a lot more activation than the Crunch reading. These Kicks resulted in 2.3 times the activation of a Crunch.
So if you add up all the moves in BODYCOMBAT™ 51 and take into account the increased activation you get from each move – that’s an equivalent of 1,700 Crunches by the time you have finished the class.
BODYCOMBAT™ is a proven class for really developing core strength and functionality without having to do endless amounts of Crunches.
Something as simple as repeated Jabs provides the right type of challenge for the core. Your core muscles automatically respond to the action you perform; it’s what they’re made to do.
A similar thing happens with Planks and Hovers; if you suspend the trunk between the toes and the elbows, the core must engage for you to stay in that position.
So when someone says that they’re finding it hard to do enough ab work to maintain their core strength, tell them about Reactive Core Training. It’s the key to unlocking true functional core strength – that’s core strength when and how you need it for everyday life.

THE HISTORY OF MARTIAL ARTSTHE HISTORY OF BOXINGBoxing is a combat sport where two participants, generally of similar weight, fight each other with only their fists. Boxing is supervised by a referee and is typically performed inside a ring with rounds lasting 1 to 3 minutes. There are three ways to win:
1. Victory is achieved if the opponent is knocked down and unable to get up before the referee counts to 10 seconds; this is called a knockout or KO.
2. If the opponent is deemed too injured to continue, this is called a technical knockout or TKO.
3. If there is no stoppage of the fight before an agreed number of rounds, a winner is determined either by the referee’s decision or by judges’ scorecards.
There are four basic punches in Boxing: Jab, Straight Right/Cross, Hook and Uppercut.
THE HISTORY OF KARATEKarate is a Martial Art that is centuries old and essentially Japanese. The translation of kara is open and the translation of te is hand. So Karate means ‘empty hand’.
Karate training is commonly divided into three sections:
1. Kihon (the basics or fundamentals)
2. KATA (forms)
3. Kumite (sparring)
THE HISTORY OF MUAY THAIMuay Thai is referred to as ‘The Art of Eight Limbs’, as the hands, shins, elbows and knees are all used extensively in this art. A practitioner of Muay Thai (nak muay) thus has the ability to execute strikes using eight ‘points of contact’, as opposed to ‘two points’ (fists) in Western Boxing and ‘four points’ (fists, feet).
Muay Thai is the national sport of Thailand.

THE HISTORY OF KUNG FUKung Fu consists of a number of fighting styles that were developed over many centuries.
Essentially this is a Chinese Martial Art, practised by Shaolin monks. Those fighting styles are identified as ‘families’ or schools. Examples of these styles are physical exercises that mimic movements from animals.
There are five animal forms:
1. The Dragon
2. The Snake
3. The Tiger
4. The Crane
5. The Leopard or Panther
THE HISTORY OF TAE KWON DOTae Kwon Do is a Korean Martial Art. The word tae means ‘to strike or break with foot’; kwon means ‘to strike or break with fist’; and do means ‘way’, ‘method’, or ‘art’. So, ‘Tae Kwon Do’ may be loosely translated as ‘the way of the foot and fist’ or ‘the way of kicking and punching’.
Tae Kwon Do is a flamboyant Martial Art that is agile, fast and precise; it is 90% feet and only 10% hands.
THE HISTORY OF CAPOEIRA Capoeira is essentially a Brazilian art. This form combines three elements:
1. Martial Arts
2. Game playing
3. Dance
It was created in Brazil by slaves brought from Africa, some time after the 16th century.
Participants form a roda or circle, and take turns playing musical instruments (such as the Berimbau), singing, or ritually sparring in pairs in the center of the circle. The sparring is marked by fluid acrobatic play, feints, and extensive use of Sweeps, Kicks and even head butts.
THE HISTORY OF TAI CHITai Chi is an internal Chinese Martial Art, often practised for health reasons.
Tai Chi can be practised for a variety of other personal reasons − its hard and soft Martial Art techniques can help self-defense, focus and breathing.
Consequently, a multitude of training forms exist, both traditional and modern.
Some Tai Chi training forms are well known to Westerners as the slow-motion routines that groups of people practise together every morning in parks around the world, particularly in China.
THE HISTORY OF JIU-JITSUJiu-Jitsu originated 2,500 years ago in India. It was developed by monks as a method of self-defense against thieves on long journeys.
In 1919, Jiu-Jitsu was introduced to Brazilian Hélio Gracie, who developed the Japanese art into what is known today as Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu.
Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ) focuses on grappling and ground fighting. It promotes the principle that a smaller, weaker person can successfully defend themselves against a bigger, stronger opponent using leverage and proper technique during locks and choke-holds.
What will Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu do for you and your members?
1. Burn calories
2. Increase strength
3. Gain discipline
4. Provide self-defense
5. Build confidence

Why do we cue kick heights in the Lower Body Warmup?KNOW IT? SHOW IT!?
TECHNIQUE & COACHINGThis is an old-school track given a modern twist! This track will help you take
the participants through the lower body strikes easily and effectively, and will alsoallow you to move them out of the Warmup zone and right into the workout.
We have simple Single Knee strikes that are then followed by Treble Knee strikes to elevate the heart rate further. This has the added benefit of warming up the leg muscles
so that you can coach the Roundhouse Kicks and Side Kicks with confidence.
We finish the Lower Body Warmup by heading to Brazil using Capoeira. The Ginga Shuffle will get the body moving dynamically across the floor as
well as adding in vertical movement. And, just when you thought it was done, theDouble Knee strike comes in to really finish the job, welcoming you into the workout zone!
As always, kicking is a personal thing. Everyone has different hip and glute strength and flexibility so it is important that you
establish correct kicking heights giving options where needed.
We want our participants to feel successful in their movements so give clear concise cues as to the foot position, body position, kick height and Range of Motion (ROM) for the kicks.
Workout Focus:1. To lift the heart rate2. To introduce the lower body
strikes and movement3. To set up the rhythm of kicking in
time to the music
Feel: Old school, dance club, powerful

TECHNIQUE & COACHINGWe bring in the Jump Kick early on in the class to give us a powerful cardio
spike to our first fight track. Not only that but Track 2 is designed to bring the fight to participants with a focus on fun.
The first combo has a Kick-boxing essence. Powerful upper body punches with short-lever explosive knees.
Remember to get the participants to first establish the moves using clear, concise cues. Use Key 1 and Key 2 to help you give the right information at the right time.
Then you can focus on the feeling of the combo by using Key 4 – Enhancement to allow the participants to start using their core more effectively – get them to pull
toward the hip on the Double Knee to really fire the core muscles.
Then we switch styles to Tae Kwon Do and bring in the flamboyant aspect – Jump Kicking to bring the heart rate up higher and more quickly, and to develop explosive power in the legs.
Introduce Key 3 – Advanced Coaching/Martial Arts Essence to give authentic Martial Arts Coaching Cues.

TECHNIQUE Boxing training explodes into the release in Track 3. It is a fantastic track to
burn calories as we use the upper body and the lower body too.There are 3 blocks to the track:
Block 1Hook, Uppercut, Hook, Jack Cross sequence
It is designed to work the core and upper body through great punching andtorso rotation and to hit the lower body with the Jack Crosses.
Block 2Jump Jab sequence
The second combo is about increasing the cardiovascular demands. We do this bycoaching the length of the Jab and then working toward the Jump Jab. Once
the Jump Jab is established, hold the participants in the workout bychallenging them to lift the knee above waist height for a real cardio kick!
Block 3Return to Hook, Uppercut, Hook, Jack Cross sequence
When we bring the combo back in, it is now about using great coaching toencourage participants to work hard and not to ‘cheat’ the move. The ‘cheat’will happen in the Jack Cross so give options – a march or static Squat – toallow some members to ease off or, for those that are more conditioned, to
put their weight in their heels with knees in line with toes.By doing this, they are using the muscles effectively
using Reactive Core Training.
Workout Focus:1. Reactive Core Training. Transferring power from the legs
into the upper body using the core.2. Key 4 – Enhancement. Will help participants to move better
and feel how the power transfers through the core.
3. Key 5 – Why/Benefits. Will give them an understanding of
how this track will strengthen their core and tone their bodies with
Feel: Euphoric, powerful, hugeFCOACHINGThe Key focuses are 4 and 5 – Enhance the
movement and the Why.
Use Key 4 to help coach the participants to feel their core work as they throw the punches
and to get deeper on the Jack Cross for effective leg training. This will allow them to work harder and avoid cheating the move.
For example: On the Jack Cross, bend your knees over toes to take your weight down for great leg training!
As the jabs come in, use Key 4 to help participants lift their cardio output by lifting the leg on the Jump Jab. This will help burn calories and drive the participants harder!

What are the Key concepts of authentic Karate technique?KNOW IT? SHOW IT!?
TECHNIQUE & COACHINGThis is an amazing Karate track that will have you working hard
with powerful Karate combos and tough leg conditioning using powerful kicks.
To really get the most out of the track, coach your participants howto perform Karate with authenticity. Use Key 3 – Martial Arts essence to do this.
The 5 key concepts to authentic Karate technique are:1 – Grounded to the floor
2 – Posturally upright3 – A clear start and finish to your movements
4 – Tension at the point of impact5 – Kiai for focus and power
Tae Kwon Do features as a contrast to lift the heart rate after thedisciplined and rigid moves of Karate. Bring some agility to the
Back Kick/Front Knee combo by changing your stance to a lighter,agile position. It then beautifully contrasts as you bring the KATA
to return to Karate.
CONNECTION Real success in this track will come from
participants tensing the muscles at the right time while performing the Karate technique.
Use Key 4 – Enhancement to help them feel where to tense hard and what it feels like to stay low in the stance and get the body working hard.
By getting them to connect to the feeling, it creates muscle memory so that not only will they feel it on the second side but, when they come back to your class, they know how it should feel
using authentic technique to work hard!

TECHNIQUE, COACHING & CONNECTIONRelentless leg training here we come!
Welcome to one of the biggest leg tracks you’ve ever seen. It will take some real guts to get through this track with great technique so be very clear with the options for participants so they can get through with success. Hook into the lyrics get on the floor! and use the swagger of the song to help take people’s minds away from the pain building in the
legs due to the intense muscle pressure. Connecting likethis is necessary to create a buzz in the room of a
shared training experience.
The key to this track is coaching in layers. Staying in level 1 won’t challenge regulars while at the same time driving new participants too hard by getting them to go deeper
may be too intense.
FITNESS MAGICBy the time the Squat Pulse comes in, people will feel fatigued.
Smile, congratulate them and let them know they aren’t done yet. Your class will moan with effort and surprise, allowing you to motivate a little more to finish the track strong!
Feel: Swagger, R ’n’ B–Pop, Top 40

What are the two types of knee strike in this Muay Thai track?KNOW IT? SHOW IT!?
TECHNIQUE & COACHINGSerious core training features in this monster of a Muay Thai track.
Trust us, once you push play, your participants will know instantly they are in for amassive track! We bring back the Roundhouse Knee to work the obliquesand core muscles and the tempo will lift the heart rate like crazy! We thenbring the upper body in with devastating Ascending and Descending Elbowstrikes. When we combine the two combos we have a HUGE 16-hit combo
that will push the entire body!
1. Ensure that you turn the hip over and drive the knee across thebody during the Roundhouse Knee. This will ensure that the movement is
firing the obliques and hitting the core muscles effectively.
2. When performing the Descending and Ascending Elbows, keep thehand soft to avoid unnecessary tension in the upper body.
Crunch your core on the Descending Elbow and lift your chest on the Ascending Elbow. This will keep the movement fast and powerful
allowing you to move quickly through the strike focusing on thatbeautiful core tension when descending and great back toning
as you ascend.
The track then finishes with the sting in the tail! Double Knee strikes that move into Running Man Knees.
These knee strikes differ as they come up the middle of the body. Ensure that you swing the hips during the Running Man Knees
to get the core muscles working hard.
Feel: Hardcore, techno, insane energy
Workout Focus:1. Elite fitness with high intervals 2. Stress release3. To improve knee strikes

What word best describes this track?KNOW IT? SHOW IT!?
FITNESS MAGICThere is only one word to describe this track – EPIC.
There are 3 working phases, each one getting bigger and bigger. This is where we can unleash ourselves and truly represent the words
KEEP IT REAL AND STAY WITH THE FIGHT!
Because there are 3 rounds, we can use the levels to build into the peaks andbring the class to the top level of fitness. Start at level 1, especially coming out
of a huge Track 7. Then start to layer in more intensity as you work throughthe phase. Endurance, perseverance and commitment are what it will take
to get the members through this track.
Phases 1 and 2Use the combos to build through the workout and feel the contrast between
the Jab combo and the Hook, Slip combo. Use the contrast of movementand feeling to help build up the highs in the class. A good tip is to show
contrast in the voice – lift them up in the first combo, pull back a little in theHook combo using a conversational tone then really motivate
as you bring the Jab combo back!
Phase 3The EPIC finish. Build quickly through the levels and hold your participants inthe workout till the end. You’ll be pushing hard and you’ll know you are there
when your participants cheer without any prompting.
TECHNIQUEWe bring the footwork into Track 8 to add a level of contrast in the working
phases. We have power in the Hook followed by agility in the feet. It will allowthe heart rate to come down just a little so that, when the upper body combo
comes back in, you can lift the intensity even higher!> As you step left to right, weave your upper body down and up
> Keep the guard up and stay light on your toes> Soft knees with a braced core
Feel: EPIC, euphoric, intense Workout Focus:1. Boxing endurance training2. Stress release3. To improve cardiovascular training
