THEANNEX GLOBEN A DREAM COME TRUE Nearly fifteen years ago, when I was working at S.A.F.E., my colleague Staffan Perman and I were looking for a hall for our convention.

Now, 15 years later, it is time to make this dream come true! This year, we will be holding SUPER SATURDAY in the Annex and at the great halls inside Globen.

Through SUPER SATURDAY, we hope to be able to inspire both clubs and instructors to raise the experience for their members.

2 THEANNEX GLOBEN A DREAM COME TRUE Nearly fifteen years ago, when I was working at S.A.F.E., my colleague Staffan Perman and I were looking for a hall for our convention. We went to look at Globen and dreamed of creating an exercise and training experience the Nordic countries, and maybe the whole world, had never seen before. Unfortunately, the price was far too high. Now, 15 years later, it is time to make this dream come true! This year, we will be holding SUPER SATURDAY in the Annex and at the great halls inside Globen. The combination of exercise, entertainment and personal development will be lifted to a higher level than ever before. Through SUPER SATURDAY, we hope to be able to inspire both clubs and instructors to raise the experience for their members. It is necessary, but not enough, that the training session is safe and effective. It needs a further dimension: namely, that the participants are affected emotionally - something that tickles the senses. My previous boss from S.A.F.E. and Sports Club, Per-Anders Dagborn, once said that he wanted his members to be able to experience something that is totally different from their everyday lives, for example, office work from nine to five, when they come to the facility. The decor, the light, the staff and the experience will help to move the senses from the humdrum of everyday life into another world, to an hour of escape from reality. Pre-convention with the Advanced Training Module (ATM) together with Les Mills International programme directors and SUPER SATURDAY in the Annex/Globen will give you a weekend of escapism, entertainment, aesthetics, personal development and partying. I hope to see you on 12 September. Feel free to come forth and give us feedback; we want to know what you think and how we can better meet the needs you have. Jesper Magnusson Managing Director, Les Mills Nordic

4 UP FOR THE CHALLENGE Are you the Nordic countries strongest BODYPUMP instructor? The Nordic Countries Strongest BODYPUMP Instructor competition in 2008 was such a huge success that both numbers and weights ran out. The winners in 2008 were Niklas Fridh from Vetlanda and Anna Eriksson from Fagersta. Where/when: Registration, weighing-in and collecting your number immediately as you come in on Saturday morning. 8:00 am- 9:00 am in the check-in. This year, we have raised the maximum number in the competition to 100 people. The competition takes place during the second BODYPUMP class between 11:30 pm- 12:30 pm. Other set times and instructions you will receive from our judges on site. Rules: The competitors are assessed in categories man/woman and according to weight and technique - i.e. maintained correct technique during songs 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. Then the total weight is added up and then divided by the bodily weights. The judges are on site to check the technique and to tabulate the scores. The Nordic countries strongest BODYPUMP instructor lives in Fagesta Text: Katarina Zell. Photo: Björn Lindgren Anna Eriksson from Arena in Fagersta won the girls competition in There was an enormous amount of attention when I came home from the competition. The gym where I work announced it so that everyone knew that I had won, and there has been an article in our local paper, Fagersta Posten. Anna won with the 35 kg weights on the leg session tune, 17 kg breast, 20 kg back and 12 kg on the triceps and biceps. The total weight, deducting form and technique faults, we then divided by the competitor s weight. With her 49 kg, Anna beat her competitors with her strength per kilogram of muscle. Anna has read about the competition but decided only upon arriving to participate. That she won, she believes, is thanks to her training in the summer and not only having kept going to classes until the autumn start like her colleagues did. Weekdays, Anna works at Atlas Copco and sets prices on their products. Weekdays consist mainly of making contacts with customers and working in front of a computer. - That is why it is nice to go down to the gym and instruct after a day at work. I am actually a very social person who likes to have contact with people. If I didn t have my BODYPUMP classes as a counter-balance to my job, I just don t know what I would do. - I will absolutely try to defend my title if the competition is held during next year s SUPER SATURDAY, says Anna Eriksson. Niklas Fridh - Nordic Master in BODYPUMP Text & Photo: Björn Lindgren Fitness-Magazine.com met with Niklas Fridh, newly-fledged Nordic master in BODYPUMP : Do you have a winning strategy? - I thought I would dare take on some extra weights, but above all keep to the technique as perfectly as possible since they will probably judge that strictly. Now that this is the Nordic Championship, do you feel extra sharp? - Above all, I thank my competitors who pep-talked me. The adrenaline nearly squirted out my ears at the last bicep-song. Nordic Championship in BODYPUMP - it is possible to compete in that? - I thought it was a good competition and I hope there will be more. It is perhaps easy to say when you have won, but there is probably an extra kick for the one who is a little more competitive as a person.
