Kickboxing/High Calorie Cardio Blast is another excellent and fun workout from Yvette Bachman. This one is primarily cardio kickboxing. It is one of her long classes (71:30 minutes). However the final 16:30 minutes isn't cardio. It is lower body and core work. So if you only have an hour, do the first 54 minutes of … Continue reading Kickboxing/High Calorie Cardio Blast
