High-octane fun and fitness combine as BODYATTACK® celebrates its 70th release with a line-up of sweat-inducing singalongs, both old and new. All tracks from Track 2 onwards offer low impact options to lighten the load on your body and ensure you keep coming for another 70 BODYATTACK® experiences. Track 1 – Madonna's Like A Prayer – warms up the bodies and the vocal cords for the sport/strength/aerobic workout to come, while the Bad Romance remix in Track 2 brings you back to the here and now as you engage the legs and the hard work begins. Track 3 also has Madonna's fingerprints all over it – a remix of her showdown with Britney Spears on Me Against The Music – and Lisa Osborne introduces a new, exciting 'Bow Tie' running pattern that has you exploring all four corners of the room. Basketball is the featured sport in this release and presenter Bevan James Eyles has you shooting hoops, mixing Power Lunges with a new jumping drill... step in, sideways, fade away, back to the start. Track 5 is all about strength in the chest, shoulders and triceps. You will 'feel it' with a killer upper-body routine that brings in a new move – a Tricep Plank Jump & Walk Feet. Another remixed golden oldie – A-Ha's Take On Me – sees the class take on each other in team running, then you're back into the gym to hone all aspects of your basketball agility, a mix of Lateral Bounces (defense) and Dodge & Pass (offense). The party really hits top gear with the highlight of this release. Normally one of the toughest sections of any BODYATTACK® class, Track 9 is still hard, but Lisa and Bevan lighten the mood with their hilarious Tina Turner impersonations on Proud Mary, complete with dance moves and a little help from the local Les Mills faithful. Track 10 reminds you how much you love great legs, featuring Squat Jumps and a little Single-Foot Takeoff 'layup' action to continue the basketball theme, before taking it to the floor to strengthen the core and “prepare for the game of life”. Then it's time to reward your effort and support of the BODYATTACK® program by blowing out candles on the anniversary cake!

Get ready for a fresh, fun release that samples some of the best music from the past four decades and will leave your class buzzing with the satisfaction of knowing they've completed a really great workout. There are options galore with plenty of accessible moves for your new faces and high–intensity alternatives to challenge your most experienced participants too. We've highlighted the options with one presenter demonstrating the easier moves for beginners throughout the Masterclass. We've also taken your BLAH feedback on board and deliberately choreographed the Dance Cardio to make it a bit less complicated for new participants. The core takes center stage and is the focus of attention for four tracks – including the first Abs Track ever in the history of BODYVIVE® to use the VIVE™ tube. Why did we wait so long, you ask! Track 1 gets us up 'n the groove with some Boogie Oogie Oogie to warm the joints and lift our heart rates. Gloria Estefan then brings a little sexy Latino flava to proceedings with a mighty mash–up of Merengue and Mambo in Track 3's Dance Cardio. Track 4, and it's time to get social as the cardio picks up and we 'face off' on opposite sides of the room – shouting to the top through the Heel Raises as we lift the VIVE™ ball high. After hitting our cardio peak with a Bad Case Of Loving You in Track 5 it's impossible to resist a smile as The Hustle takes us through a relaxing take on Tai Chi inspired by “Kung Fu Panda”. But don't get too comfortable – you've still got Track 9 to go and this is one butt track with bite! Feel that burn and focus on how gorgeous it's gonna make you. BODYVIVE® is a Hard Habit to Break!

Pump up your tyres and adjust your racing goggles... RPM® 48 is taking you out on the road in a battle for survival against some of the world's cycling legends. The first of two race stages consists of 10 minutes to get the body really warm, a hill climb and mixed terrain to keep the energy alive, then intervals that will severely test your reserves. Stage 2 involves a series of sprints, before tackling the mountain. Track 1 sets off behind the pace car, an opportunity to check out your opposition and find a Cycle SET position that will provide the foundation of your workout. As the route takes you down the Lost Highway, the pace quickens, allowing you to open your lungs, engage the legs and find a spot at the front of the bunch. The contest begins in earnest as the 'rabbit' becomes 'rabbit stew' on the first climb, then Glen Ostergaard's team goes up against Delores Douglas and hers, before powering to the end of the hill stage. Track 4 offers a chance to refuel, relax and re-energize to a little 'o-n-e-l-o-v-e'. Too soon, it seems, the pace is back on as you must first catch the bunch, stay with it and then break it up, before repelling a surprise four-man breakaway attempt. With Stage 1 complete, you can settle back into the peloton and loosen the legs up with a series of sprints to the haunting Waiting... nervously poised for the next challenge. You don't have to wait long, for just ahead lies the mountain and a chance to stalk The Master – Spaniard Alberto Contador – through the pack. It's Not Over by any means... it's a war of attrition and only the strongest will win. Are you up for it? By the top of the mountain, you'll be grovelling over your handlebars, but hopefully celebrating sweet victory with your team-mates on the warm-down descent.
