Melissa - how do you fit Pump into 45 minutes? I've seen it on other gym timetables too, but I presume some tracks are missed out? Or each section is shorter? Or, I'm not sure!

OK so today, I'm having to STOP myself from exercising too much ha ha! I'm only going to go to my spinning class, and not doing any more jogging. I am trying to convince myself that I have to give the C25K program a proper go and trust it and so stop doing extra jogging practise in between. I need to believe that the 20 minute run I fear at the end of next week will be possible!

April 1st - 45 minute spinning class
April 2nd - 60 minute Pump class
April 3rd - 30 minutes c25k w4d1 + 15 mins mega brisk walking in the rain
April 4th -60 minute Pump class + 15 mins jogging
April 5th - 45 minute spin class

270/1260 = 990 to go

That take out two tracks and squeeze in the rest. It works out well because I follow it up with the express body step which has a lunge track, so in the end, I'm really only missing one track which is the Shoulder track which you sort of get shoulder work with the back track.

Both of those they call express - bodypump express and bodystep express. About half the class stays to take them both back to back. My husband joins me for the express bodypump.

Melissa, I like the idea of 45 mins each of pump and step! And right now I love the idea of a pump class minus the lunges (propulsion ones test my balalnce too much by the end of the class!) and shoulders (because the new shoulder track is a killer!!!)
