Beachbody Functional Fight?

Apparently BB previewed this new workout concept at a recent retreat. It was created by Joel Freeman and Jericho McMathewes from Les Mill. I think it is a BOD exclusive. Seems like they're trying To compete against LM.

Jericho is in that kickbox workout with Tracey S and Josef. I thought she had great form. I'm interested.

In the video description is says this was a preview of "their new Beachbody on Demand workout concept" so it seems they plan to do this on Demand only and not on DVD? It looks a lot like LM Combat to me, which I already have, and I'm not seeing anything new here--at least not in the clips that were shown.

Interesting. Looks like a Combat/GRIT combination.

I'm down for nearly any kickboxing/fighting type concept, especially when they have the potential of good beachbody music.

I agree, there is nothing unique about this workout at all, but I always wanted a Jericho led workout, I like her.

BUT with that said, if it's streaming only, I likely won't be doing these.

I didn't know that Les Mill's instructors were even allowed to do something OUTSIDE of LM, let alone for such a big behemoth in the fitness industry. I don't know -- those big exercise corporations always struck me as how movie studios were back in the 40's, 50's, and 60's, when the studios almost, literally, OWNED them for however long their contract was. (It was like signing your soul over to the devil.)

Jericho has been with LM for SO long, I just presumed she would be Les Mills, all the time, til the END of time.

Pointless musing. . .


Anyway, I really like Jericho and wish there were more workouts that featured her or even just ONE that was led by her. (I know she had her moment on Tracey's CKC, but that wasn't enough for me. )

I am pretty sure that Jericho, Josef and Joel are no longer with Les Mills but are employed by BB.

Hmm. That's interesting. I wonder why they left. I know it could be a multitude of reasons. . .

That would explain this new workout. Though, if I had thought about it for a second I probably would have realized, "DUH! Of course she's probably not with LM anymore if she's doing this", but, like I said, she had been with LM for so long, it was just surprising to see.

Thanks for the info!
