Emily’s video in particular has sparked debated after she described her racy appearance as empowering.

The model turned actress, who is seen rolling around in pasta for her video, said: “In the wake of women coming forward with incredible amounts of sexual harassment cases, I have been so disappointed to hear women talk about ‘modesty’ and ‘our responsibility’ as if we need to, yet again, adjust to make it easier for the rest of the world.

“I’m tired of having to consider how I might be perceived by men if I wear a short skirt or post a sexy Instagram.

DIFFERENT TYPES OF STRENGTH TRAINING CLASS

Lots of our classes at #CoreSpace incorporate some elements of strength training, either with weights, specialised equipment or using bodyweight for resistance. However we have a few classes which are what we’d call pure strength training classes and these are the ones we’ll explain now:

Barbells: Barbells is a class that uses more traditional free weights for strength training, the image you probably had in your head when you started reading about it. The class will increase strength and teach you weightlifting techniques so you can feel more confident of staying safe and injury free when using free weights on the gym floor.

Kettlebells: Kettlebells are a specific type of free weight, shaped like a bell, hence the name. The kettlebell is a hugely versatile piece of strength training equipment, allowing you to perform a wide range of movements with a single piece of equipment. This class works your whole body to help increase strength and cardio fitness.

Tempolift: Lifting larger weights doesn’t make ladies bulk up, but many still worry about it and so we designed tempolift, a class that focuses on toning through high repetitions using light weights. You’ll use dumbbells to the music’s beat to work your muscles to the max.

Suspension training: If you want to go beyond the traditional “pumping iron” you can try a different strength workout with the Navy Seals’ ‘portable gym’, which takes traditional strength training exercises onto suspension ropes. Don’t worry about the lack of weights, this military inspired class will still give you the strength training benefits you are after.
