[quote=Anonymous]NP here - I have gone through various phases of feeling sore every day, to never feeling sore no matter how hard I was pushing myself.  I think to some degree it's a personal / physiological (? or physical ? ) thing, and also somewhat related to the types of movements you are doing.
I have also done bodypump for years, and gradually built up my weight selections as it does emphasize high reps/low weights.  What really kicked me into gear was combining bodypump with a boot camp style class that emphasized heavier weights and fewer reps, also different styles of movement (ie more functional fitness and full body moves vs isolation).  The heavier weights have NOT caused me to bulk up (on the contrary, they magically melted away that last stubborn 10 lbs).
If your friends are always lifting waaay too much weight, or pushing themselves intermittently, they will be more sore than you are, next day.  Doesn't mean they are in better shape or working harder, necessarily.
Try a totally different class, not just a different instructor, to really give your muscles a shake up (ie swimming instead of boot camp, kickboxing instead of spin, etc).  [/quote]
