Hi Annette!

I'm doing a rotation this month using lots of your mish-moshes and the Kickbox Mish-Mosh is on tap for tomorrow. However, I don't have cardio kicks and I'm wondering what I could sub?

Thanks for your help. I did the Obvious Mish-Mosh on Friday and it ROCKED.:D
 
What rotation are you doing Shelley? I love A-Jock's mish-moshes & I want in!!! J/K. I really do love her mish-moshes but I have just done them on my own sans a rotation, so I was curious. Share!!! What are you current goals & what rotation are you using towards reaching them?

A-Jock Hears Your Cry:

I'm not sure which Kickbox mish-mosh you're doing, but a couple of good substitutes for the Cardio Kicks power drills (which is the only part of CK I usually do) would be the Kick Max blast challenge, OR two complete runs-through of the Boot Camp kickbox intervals. Note: in the Boot Camp kickbox premix one of the kickbox intervals from the original routine is omitted (can't remember which one), so that's why I'll suggest just putting your DVD player onto BC's Everything But Core premix and "nexting" to each next KB intervval.

I'm not sure what language I wrote the above in, so I hope this helps.

LOL - thanks! The one I'm doing is KPC warm-up through high intensity drills, Kickmax Challenge and Bootcamp Kickbox only premix. Perhaps I'll do the Kickmax Challenge twice instead of the BC premix 3 times:)

So:

KPC warm-up through high intensity drills
Kickmax Challenge
BC Kickbox only
Kickmax Challenge

Sound about right?
 
Limecat - that sounds about right - it might be a little less clunky to do the Kickmax Challenge twice back-to-back so you don't have to screw around with the discs going back and forth.

Just out of curiosity, do you mind outlining what your month's rotation looks like? I'm flattered that you're using the mish-moshes for them!

Also, do put Cardio Kicks on your to-buy list (maybe it's still available thru clearance if you're still able to use videos); the power drills segment is very good (slower tempos for the leg drills, and really focused) and I still swear by the punching drills. Just did that tonight after work, in fact, after my beloved Circuit Max variation, and my lats and shoulders are still feeling it.

Well, when I started tonight, I wasn't quite sure how I was going to do it, but I ended up doing KPC w/u through drills, KM Blast, BC Kickbox premix and KM Blast and cooldown. It worked well. My HRM tells me I burned 726 calories;)

I'll definitely put Cardio Kicks on my list (which only ever seems to get longer, never shorter!).

Here's my rotation (or what's left of it for the month):

8th - The Gauntlet
9th - Blast Max Mish-Mosh
10th - ME and Coremax
11th MIC
12th - 3 mile run - Coremax
13th - Musclemax
14th - Imax 3
15th - GS BSB/Core
16th - KPC/L&G Premix
17th - GS C&T
18th - Bean's Lowmax Mish-Mosh - Coremax
19th - Wendy's Body Max Mish-Mosh
20th - 3 mile run - Coremax
21st - Nosebleed Circuit
22nd - RS/Coremax
23rd - MIC
24th - Satan's Mish-Mosh
25th - Blast Max Mish-Mosh
26th - Light Run/GS C&T/Core
27th - 10K run/Coremax
28th - GS BSB
29th - Imax Extreme
30th - GS Legs/Coremax

If you have any input, I'd be honoured to hear it:)
 
That's an ambitious rotation! I'd also be curious what short-term physique effects you experience after you've completed it.

I do think you could use a rest day after every 6th workout day, but that's just me. Maybe factor in a Stretch Max day. I'm certainly not one to be overly conservative when it comes to exercise intensity, but those times when I've done workouts 10 or more days through without at least one complete day off, I get really, really thick and really, really mentally burned out. But again, that's just me.

I'm not awfully good at scheduling rest days. Usually I put together my rotation and if I feel like I need a rest day, I take one.:)
