Burpees are my worst nightmare and I usually flat out refuse to do them. One of you holds a plank while the other has to do ten burpees. **Jazmin: **There's a bit in the class where you work in pairs. My top tip, don’t wear leggings that fall down like I did – these Reebok leggings look great, but the low waist band meant I spent the entire session pulling them up. **Alyss: **I wore my favourite Nike Zoom Flyknit trainers, and they felt great, because they’re suitable for things like squats, burpees and indoor training.

I wore the Nike Pro Classic and for a 'medium support' bra, there was zero jiggle. a super supportive sports bra for all that annoying jumping around. I'm not an expert but I'd say if you're going to give it any thought, pay extra attention to what you'd be most comfortable doing the HIIT stuff in, i.e. **Jazmin: **I wore my most comfortable pair of H&M leggings and a pretty casual Nike vest with splits either side for a bit o' extra freedom. Call me gross, but I was ok… What do I need to wear? I popped a jumper on and went on my merry way. **Alyss: **I’m going to get real with you and tell you I did not shower, nor did I change.
You’ll feel like superwoman all day after proving how strong you are. It’s 45 minutes but if (like me) you don’t sweat that much during weight training you could hop on a bus after and get back into work, asap.
We went first thing in the morning (sigh) and the class was less than an hour which would give you just enough time to pop your pits into the shower. And even if you were unsure, there’s plenty of opportunity to sneakily ask when the instructor walks around. The instructor explained everything in great detail, and you do each exercise a couple of times so you can really grasp the concept. **Alyss: **I’d say regardless of your knowledge beforehand, you could do this class. But I did feel like I would have gotten more out of the class if I knew more (anything) about the correct form for lifting. **Jazmin: **I mean, I got through the class just fine and the very lovely instructor does do that thing of walking around to make sure that no one has passed out under their barbells. Do I need a working knowledge of exercise beforehand? I did the latter, so I had to push it extra hard during the HIIT section. **Alyss: **Weights are tough, because if you don’t pick up the right weight (hi, me) you’re either going to feel like it’s too hard and struggle for the whole class, or you’ll pick up weights too light and won’t be pushing yourself enough. I didn't feel awkward about slowing down or doing less than the rest of the class which was nice. So you chose how heavy the weights you use are and when you're doing the HIIT interval you're doing the exercise to time rather than to a number of reps which means there is some flexibility to how hard you go. But what's great is that you have a lot of control over how hard you push yourself. It's not an easy one becuase, well, you're mixing lifting with HIIT which, even just writing down, makes me want to vom. **Jazmin: **Difficulty is in the eye of the weight holder, my friends.
