KICK MAX......DETAILS

Kick Max is approximately 70 minutes in length and is broken up into the following segments.

Warm Up (12 minutes).....A nice extended warm up which will incorporate the basic kick and punches into movement patterns plus incorporate new movement patterns designed to enhance your balance and flexibility.

Kick and Punch Combo's (22 minutes).....Similar to the format of KPC's segment, you will now do 4 combinations which feature a punching combo combined with a kicking combo. The first combo is more elementary and each one after that will gradually become more intricate to keep you challenged and working hard. As I tell all of my students during these types of combo's "you get out of it what you put in to it" so be sure to really "punch the punch" and "kick the kick" :) Btw, we'll have our hands wrapped for this segment but this is not required.

Kickbox/Bootcamp challenge (15 minutes)......Here you will do 10 high impact conditioning drills (some more intense than others). You will recognize most of the moves in this segment since the purpose is to quickly "see it and do it". This segment provides the bonus burn for those who are wanting a hardcore, calorie burning, challenge. Good news for those who are not interested in this segment....simply skip to leg conditioning drills and you still get a close to an hour kickbox workout.

Leg Conditioning Drills (18 minutes)....."OUCHIE", best describes how you will feel during these drills}( (Don't worry, it get's just a little easier with each and every workout:)). This segment is designed to shape your legs while enhancing your kicking skills and flexibility. The more skilled and flexible you become, the more efficient your future workouts will be. You will do conditioning drills for the round/side kicks and hip flexor and front kicks. You will also do slow moton side, round, front snap, and front thrust kicks to really get a feel for them. A chair is required for this segment.

Stretch.....a 6 minute relaxing stretch will complete this challenging workout.


Music.......Provided by Music Flex and is all instrumental. There is a constant driving down beat behind all of the upbeat songs. We enjoyed the music.

Clothing....All of the clothing was by "Oh My Bod" except for Cathe's top which is by Nike.


Stay tuned, Core Max will be reviewed next.......
 
Oooh! It sounds killer/wonderful! I need some re-shaping to these legs of mine and I think this is just what they need. Thanks for the info Cathe!

Yowza! This one sounds like it will either make you puke or cry. Glad I'm holding off a little while before I buy it. Maybe by June (my birthday), I'll be ready...If the Gods are willing.
 
Cathe,

IMHO you are the best}( }( }( . You are and always will be no. 1 in my book}( }( }( .

I thank you so much for all your hard work and time you have dedicated to making not only me, and women all around the world truly happy, but to some men as well.

Happy Holidays to you & your family.

Cathe,

This sounds like an amazing and fun, but grueling, workout. The leg conditioning drills kind of sound like the exercises Aaron Lankford did in his first kickboxing video. Tough, tough, tough! :)

Have a great day!

Sounds great!
I especially like the inclusion of the leg conditioning drills, and the fact that the high impact is "skippable"!
 
I could just echo Kathryn. I love that you can skip the high impact and still get an hour workout. Fantastic.
 
This workout sounds awesome - and I too love that you can easily skip the high impact for those certain days when you just cant get it done - and still get an hour! That is why Cathe is the best at what she does!!

It is also fun to read the breakdown and then look at the pictures again... There is a lot of oh yea - I see it now... :)

Thank you!

Anne :D
 
Thank you so much Cathe for making another Kickbox workout. I always feel so accomplished after I finish KPC. Nice to see that this one is 70 minutes! Yikes, maybe that is not a good thing? Cannot wait!:)
