Complexity of Movement or Choreography: (Low / Medium / High)
Exercise Intensity: (1 Low / 2 Medium / 3 High)
Each class is listed according to the complexity of choreography and exercise intensity. Each participant is responsible for monitoring his/her own intensity level during class.
Group Exercise Leaders will introduce you to the Rate of Perceived Exertion Scale to monitor exercise intensity during class. This is a subjective method of monitoring intensity and is based on a 0-10 scale. Zero (0) corresponds to the intensity of sleeping. Ten (10) corresponds to the intensity of running as fast as you possibly can.
For more information on fitness guidelines, consult one of our certified Personal Fitness Trainers or Group Exercise Leaders.
BStrong (Bruin Strong)
Bruin Strong (BStrong) is a goal oriented, progressive strength & conditioning system designed by UCLA's top fitness professionals. This comprehensive fitness program is everything you need: compound resistance training with a variety of equipment including barbells, racks, kettlebells, dumbbells, etc.; power training; plyometrics; conditioning/cardio, core & more! With smaller class sizes, you get the top notch instruction & feedback you'd expect in a personal training session coupled with the energy, enthusiasm & connection of working out in a group. Get STRONG with your fellow Bruins! "Let's go, Bruins! Let's go!"
BSTRONG Strength
This class features compound strength exercises (main lifts like dead lifts, squats and presses) and isolation/assistance exercises for a comprehensive strength based class.
Typical daily training emphasis is as follows: Mondays (full body & squatting), Tuesdays (upper body pulling), Wednesdays (full body & deadlifting), Thursdays (upper body pushing), Fridays (full body and power movements).
BSTRONG Conditioning & Core
Featuring compound strength movements, power exercises, cardio, and core, this class focuses on max conditioning. Taught HIIT or Interval style, this is the cardio to your strength.
Weekly Recommendation: Attend at least 2 Strength and 1 Conditioning & Core for the quarter to increase your strength and stamina.
BStrong classes are mixed level, meaning they can be scaled for different fitness levels. All classes are held out at Drake Stadium at the north end of the track either at the "rig" or "locker."
