Heres a nice HIIT workout rotuine from Fitness Blender, that incorporates cardio kickboxing. This routine will have your drenched in sweat after you are done.
We are always getting requests for more kickboxing workouts so we thought we would deliver up a new kickboxing routine but this time with a bit of a twist. This time instead of our usual design where we have combinations of punches and kicks etc. leading with one side then the other we have taken that idea and added intervals of traditional bodyweight exercises following each change in kickboxing combinations and leading side.
This gives a whole new challenge in trying to maintain control of your body during the kicks and punches before and after doing a taxing total body exercise. This is meant not only to challenge your body physically but also to challenge you mentally, as you have to change training styles/motor pathways very quickly while still focusing on form and control. To do that we take a combination of kickboxing moves and repeat them ten times leading with one side of the body and then complete 10 repetitions of a traditional bodyweight exercise in a different plane of motion. Then we repeat the same combination of kickboxing moves leading with the other side of the body before repeating the bodyweight exercise again. Once that total cycle is complete we switch to a new combination of kickboxing moves and another bodyweight exercise.
