JBER Aerobic Fitness Program

Les Mills - yes, an actual person, not just the name of the world's leading group fitness organization - was an absolute legend. For those of you in particular who enjoy RIP, the Les Mills organization was the first to create a barbell strength training program choreographed to music in 1990 when they created Body Pump. Legend has it that Les Mills' son traveled to America in the 1980s during the aerobics craze. He went back home to New Zealand and said to his father, hey, how about we apply this music and choreography to strength training? Thus Body Pump was born. Les Mills today is the largest global provider of licensed group fitness workouts, offering not just Body Pump, but programs across all fitness formats, including BodyCombat and RPM for cycling, as well as numerous other genres. Les Mills' impact across the global fitness industry is legendary, and will live on - Ron
