It's Here! BODYPUMP™ Comes to Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center on October 28!

The Glen Ellyn Park District will begin offering LES MILLS BODYPUMP™ starting on October 28 at the Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center. For those unfamiliar with BODYPUMP™, it is a revolutionary barbell workout that challenges all major muscle groups and burns up to 600 calories per class. In a typical BODYPUMP™ class, attendees will perform 800 repetitions in 60 minutes.

“BODYPUMP™ is a unique workout and we’re excited to be able to add it to our group fitness offerings,” said Sean Nelson, Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center’s General Manager. “Nine classes will be offered throughout the week at varying days and times, including an express 30-minute class offered on Wednesday evenings at 8pm.”

Each BODYPUMP™ workout consists of squats, presses, lifts and curls, with individuals determining their level of work by choosing the appropriate weights. Each quarter, the Ackerman Sports & Fitness Center team will receive an updated release from Les Mills containing new routines, music and brand new moves to increase attendee’s fitness results.
