You have Les Mills programmes at where you're at too?
I love their combat, pump, jam and step classes.
yes, I think it is pretty much world wide?
I used to LOVE bodystep but I got bored *hahah*
Pump and Jam are my ultimate favourites. and now Im into spinning also.
I have little story about one of the program director, his name is Dan McDonogh. He was introducing people for RPM.
I was one of the last ones who got into the class, so I had to be in front row and only bike that was left was the one that was opposite of his bike.
It was such a fun spinning class, he was hilarious and inspirational.
Anyway, it had gone like 20min of the class and he said me ´´wow, you workout hard. very good job. such a pretty red face you have´´.
*hahah* I really was working my butt and lungs off.
and he said positive feedback for few other fellow spinningers. But it was such a sweet comment he gave me.
I really like Les Mills but sometimes combat can be bit dissapointing.
wow that´s it.
Dips are great for triceps. Stand with your back to a steady chair, couch, coffee table and put the heel of your hand on the surface with fingers pointing forward. Put your legs straight out in front of you and keep them straight with heels on the ground. Slowly lower yourself until your bottom nearly touches the ground and raise up again. Do three sets of 15 reps.
Thankyou. Dips are horrrrrible but so darn great.
I did some google searching and found these, just in case somebodyesle is interested.
pull over.
also called skull crushers.
- Lie on the floor or a bench and hold a light-medium barbell with the hands close together, about shoulder-width apart.
- Extend the arms straight up over the chest, palms face out and thumbs wrapped around so that they're next to the fingers.
- Bend the elbows and lower the the weight down to a few inches above the forehead or until the elbows at about 90-degree angles.
- Squeeze the triceps to straight the arms without locking the joints.
- Repeat for 1-3 sets of 10-16 rep
Triceps kickback.
- Hold a medium weight in both hands and bend over until your torso is at a 45-degree angle or parallel to the floor (more advanced). Bend the knees if needed and keep the abs engaged to protect the lower back.
- Begin the movement by bending the arms and pulling the elbows up to torso level.
- Holding that position, straighten the arms out behind you, squeezing the triceps muscles.
- Bend the arms back to starting position and repeat for 10-16 reps.
Tips
- Do this exercise one arm at a time if you're using heavier weights or need more support for the lower back.
- Keep the abs engaged and the back flat throughout the movement.
- At the end of the movement, your arms should extend along the body, palms facing each other.
- Try not to swing the arms to get the weight up.

Those are good.
I have done lots of push ups with gym ball.
It feels that way the push ups are more effective.
