Certified instructor description:
Two complete workouts: First: a high-energy floor-aerobics kickbox program, Second: an ultra-challenging lower-body segment that uses a step. “Kick, Punch & Crunch” begins with a kickbox instructional segment. By learning the moves first, Cathe never needs to slow down during the workout (which she certainly doesn't — this is 46 minutes of non-stop calorie burning). Cathe further maximizes the intensity by incorporating jumping jacks, squats and double-time moves within the standard non-step kickboxing. It ends with a stability ball ab segment. “Legs & Glutes” is tough. Using a high step, it features lots of compound exercises, from leg presses and hover squats to leg lifts and curtsy lunges (often with ankle weights for even more resistance). Superb instruction. The cardio is regular floor aerobics. The toning section requires a stability ball, 3 to 15 lb. dumbbells, 2 to 5 lb. ankle weights and a “stick” for balance. Has a “premix” feature that lets you select pre-programmed shorter workouts (e.g. just the kickbox segments). ©2003.
