Cardio Kickboxing Workout

Heather Robertson created a cardio kickboxing workout! I was super excited when I saw this. This is different from her other workouts–and yet it has the same Heather Robertson flare. I loved it! It was not the most challenging kickboxing workout I’ve ever done but I did enjoy it and I got a great little cardio workout. Heather is using light hand weights for this workout. I used 2 pound hand weights and I think that went a long way to increasing the intensity.

This workout is done interval style. Each exercise is done for 30 seconds followed by 10 seconds of recovery. Heather previews the next move during the recovery. This workout is all music, no talking, and, as usual, the music is very motivating. There is a timer in the lower right hand corner of the screen, counting down the intervals and recoveries.
