30 min Cardio Kickboxing Workout | No Equipment | Low Impact

30 Min Cardio Kickboxing Workout is another kickboxing workout from new-to-me trainer Taylor Sharp.

I think I would have liked this workout more if Taylor had set it to music. But there is no music and I didn’t provide my own. According to my Apple Watch I spent most of the workout in Zone 3 of my heart rate followed by Zone 4 then Zone 2. So not super intense but I did get some solid steady state cardio. I liked the moves, too. There are 4 circuits and each circuit contains 3 moves. The first move is upper body/punch focused, the second move is lower body/kick focused and the third move is a more intense cardio boxing type move. Each circle s done 3 times then you get a one minute break before moving on to the next circuit.

This workout is done interval style. Each exercise is done for 30 seconds followed by 10 seconds of rest. There are no timers or graphics. During the recoveries Taylor previews your next move. She leads you through the workout with lots of form pointers. Though Taylor does claim this is a low impact workout, there is impact in the final circuit. Taylor does show a low impact modification but she does the move with impact.
