Whether new to lifting or a seasoned pro, LES MILLS STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT will build muscle, improve technique, and grow your confidence so you can train more powerfully in the studio and on the gym floor.

LES MILLS STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT is progressive strength training, meaning each workout focuses on a specific training protocol for building strength over the 12 workouts. This ranges from Foundational Strength, to Hypertrophy, to Pure Strength, while the structure and feel is very different to BODYPUMP™.

The music is there to provide great workout tracks without moving to the beat. Instead, LES MILLS STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT uses Time Under Tension, as well as rep-ranges depending on the prescribed protocol of the workout.

What is the difference between LES MILLS STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT and BODYPUMP?

Both workouts are based on science-backed strength training theories. BODYPUMP focuses on high repetitions with lighter weights. The format and moves are set to work to the beat of the music.

How fit and strong do I need to be?

LES MILLS STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT is suitable for all fitness levels and abilities. Progress through the essential elements of strength training with controlled movements. Each workout provides the building blocks for the next workout in the set of 12 so you'll build strength as you go.
