Singing the praises of Cardio Kicks

I just got this tape off the ya ya swap and I am so glad I did. I have done this workout twice and my body felt it for 3 days! I was just pouring sweat and feeling like a tough chick. I have only done tae bo advanced =- it was ok but I don't seek out this workout.
How does Kick Punch Crunch compare???
Thanks!
Debra;-)
 
IMHO, CK is extremely more challenging that KP&C. The intensity of CK really rocks and the drills at the end make my upper body sore for days. I LOVE IT!!!

Don't get me wrong KP&C is tough, but my body does not feel it as intensely as CK.
 
I'm glad to read this thread. I have done KPC 2 or 3 times now and it's okay...but not one of my favorites because it just doesn't 'suit' me like Bootcamp for instance. But, I have been wanting to get Circuit Max but I didn't think I would use the Cardio Kicks workout given how I feel about KPC...didn't want two of the same type of workout. But if CK is a more intense workout I may just like that one afterall. Or, I'll just buy CM on video by itself. I've not done any of the Tae Bo workouts so I can't comment there as far as a comparison.
 
Thanks for the info on Cardio Kicks. I love kickboxing,I've taken classes but it's hard to fit into my schedule so I was wanting to get some more videos. I have Tae Advanced, I love the floor work at the end. I also have just recently purchased KPC, I definately don't feel it in my core as much as Tae Bo, but it gets my heart rate up for longer.I'll definately get the Cardio Kicks/Curcuit Max DVD.
 
I didn't think I would like this video, but it's my favorite floor cardio workout. I taped KPC off FitTv, so I know I don't have the whole workout, but I prefer CK. The only thing I do not like about Kick boxing workouts is all the punching. Weird, I know, but it is really boring to me. IMO, CK is more fun and I really don't have any interest in the KPC/L&G dvd! I'm still pretty satisfied with my Tae Bo Live's, even though his cuing leaves much to be desired.:)

By the way, Circuit Max is Awesome! This dvd is definitely worth the $.
 
Thanks for your replies! I have been afraid of Circuit Max. Maybe I will give it a try and get the DVD!. I, too, am not a fan of floor cardio because I didn't think I had the endurance or because of the high impact. I even did the jumps in Cardio Kicks the second time through. I am doing a PS rotation and between that and CK, my upper body has gotten more defined. I am so glad I had the courage to try this one - and at 43!!:p
 
I got cardio kicks out this morning and it has been way to long. I LOVE IT. I THINK IT IS MORE INTENSE THAN kpc too. I love everything about it. I forgot how energized I feel when I am done. Have fun with it. I was in the best mood today, because I enjoyed my work out so much.

Have a great evening everyone.

Fab40...I don't like all the punching and jabbing either. Maybe if I was hitting a real bag I would feel differently but the 'arm work' in KPC is boring. I am going to try the kickboxing workout in the CTX series today and see how I like that one.
 
Glad you liked Cardio Kicks. I find that one very fun. However, everyone always says that it is intense. While I think it is good steady cardio, I don't find it all that intense. Everyone also says that it is tougher than KPC. Well, I have bought it, but I have not tried it. I have it on my rotation in a few weeks. Can't wait to try it.

U2girl,

I hope you enjoy cardio kicks, it is great, I feel it the next few days. I find it a little more intense than KPC and Kickbox, but I love them all. Let us know how you like it. I have most of Cathe's dvd's, except cardio kicks and circuit max, I have those 2 on vhs, but would love to get the dvd because they are 2 of my all time favorites. Enjoy your day today:)

Debbie:) :D
 
Good morning

OH BUT MONEY WELL SPENT. Do I hear that plastic scraping your leatther walet??.Is that your credit card?. I just love that work out.

Cheers and here is to our good health.

Debbie,

enjoy:) :) :) :) :) :)
 
Cardio Kicks is not more intense than KPC for the cardio part. BUT, the Intensity Power Drills blow KPC out of the water if you are really giving it your all. If you are punching as hard as you can and jumping as high as you can, I don't know how anyone could dispute the intensity of this tape......

Did this yesterday after a loooonnnggg layoff and was suprised to find it easier than before. It is a miracle!!:)IMO, that video is worth it just for the Power Drills. A great combo would be KPC all the way up to the combos, and then switch to CK Power Drills. That would be a butt kicker...

Hi Janice, I think you are right about the intensity drills. I just love all Cathe's kickboxing tapes. There is none better, but I do have my eye on the new one by Janis Saffell on collage video, I have heard good things about it, the one called hard core kick box circuit.
I hope you have a great day.

Debbie:) :)
