BODYCOMBAT class structure and tracks, explained

Every BODYCOMBAT class follows a plan. Once you know the order of the tracks, it is much easier to pace yourself.

Updated 15 November 2026

Class lengths

Les Mills lists three formats: 30, 45 and 55 minutes. Some Malaysian clubs list BODYCOMBAT as a 60 minute class on their websites, which usually allows time to settle in. A shorter class uses a selection of tracks.

The tracks of a full class

Each track is one song with its own job. Combat tracks build combinations, power training tracks push your heart rate up, and the last tracks bring it down.

  1. 01 · Warm up. Learn the main moves and get your body ready.
  2. 02 · Combat 1. Your first combination of punches and kicks.
  3. 03 · Power training 1. A faster track focused on speed and endurance.
  4. 04 · Combat 2. A longer combination with more energy.
  5. 05 · Power training 2. Punches only, working the upper body.
  6. 06 · Combat 3. A chance to lower the intensity and recover a little.
  7. 07 · Muay Thai. Knees and elbows take centre stage.
  8. 08 · Power training 3. The final upper body push.
  9. 09 · Conditioning. Floor based strength work, often for the core.
  10. 10 · Cool down. Stretch and slow your breathing.

Track order based on published Les Mills programme material. Individual releases and gyms can vary.

Releases

Every few months a new BODYCOMBAT release brings fresh music and choreography for every track. Releases are numbered, and the Les Mills site lists recent ones such as BODYCOMBAT 108. Instructors may also mix favourite tracks from older releases into a class.

Beginner tip: the launch of a new release is new for everyone in the room, so it is a good time to start.
