This workout follows the same format/structure as its lower body sister workout, challenging you to string together mini cardio kickboxing combos and work on your unilateral (single limb) strength. Alternating between cardio and strength like this gives you the opportunity to focus on two training modalities in one session, training your body for performance efficiency while allowing you to save a bit of time “in-training” as well. As I always mention in both the write-ups and the videos for kickboxing workouts, focus on finding a rhythm with the combos that works for you! Feel free to substitute any of the kicks and punches for alternative movement patterns that help you find a flow.
I was beyond excited to film this workout after taking some time off from filming to spend time with family for the holidays (this was filmed shortly after Christmas and the start of the New Year), and I also like to dedicate a couple of weeks between filming batches of videos to reflect, research, write, and create my content. My pre-filming music “jam session” was roughly 30 minutes long – I needed to get rid of some of this excess energy before pressing record or there would have been multiple “surprise” segments popping up throughout the workout.
I hope you enjoy this workout and maybe I’ll continue creating kickboxing/strength combo routines for you?
New Kickboxing Workout! Cardio Combos & Upper Body Strength
Good morning FB Family!
Many of you said you enjoyed the fantastically fun Cardio Kickboxing Combos with Lower Body Strength: Single Dumbbell and Bodyweight Exercises routine so I felt compelled to create an upper body counterpart (this is a lie, we all know I had already starting creating this workout for you before you even asked for it):
