Btw, it sounds like you need to ask Santa for some more risers!

I did workout one, the cardio workout, from BoxFit. I loved it!!! I had a little trouble catching on to the combos in the warmup, but after that it was smooth sailing. It didn't feel awkward at all. I felt like the moves fit together very well. I must have been having a good day! hahaha. I felt like she repeated everything just enough. Not too long that it got monotonous. I liked the intensity too, not brutally hard. I also liked the music and the pace was pretty quick, but I felt like it was perfect.
So, this one is a winner for me. It's about 33 minutes, great length. Linda I agree with you that I would have liked a longer cooldown. I did the second workout on Super Sculpt yesterday. I really liked this one too. Lots of stuff going on, not too brutal, step combos were not crazy and I got a good workout without feeling wiped out. Good stuff! Kim |

I did Super sculpt premix with step ups...( No jumps for me!). It was a solid workout for me using my 1# fabric walking weights for punching, high step plus 4 risers and moderate dumbbells for step-ups. I sweat nicely without feeling beat up.
Thanks to Char for the heads up on the bands. I had to go down for the second round of band work and was glad I had it ready. She goes at a quick pace so a lower tension band is necessary for me. I enjoyed the step up segments alot. You can go pretty heavy . This workout gets you in the outer, lower side of your seat. Normally, I can't work that too well unless I do floorwork. No one really shows modifications for eliminating the high impact moves but Kelly does mention after the moves have been done awhile some options for lowering the impact. I will definitely turn music off bc she works right through the rest sometimes and it started to irritate me ( even though I didn't need the rest.) Great premix options and I plan next time to do the premix of band and step ups as an add on to other lower body. You could skip that last round of step ups at 27ish to keep this premix closer to 30 min and ffwd to cooldown about 33m. Otherwise it is longer than 30 min... closer to 36 minutes. My own needs require more mobility work for hips than what she does before this workout...but her warmup here was great for the shoulders ( she needed these in Boxfit!) Curiously, she has a graphic that says high step needed ( and what I used) but uses a regular step platform. Also, since the high step was there at the end of the workout, she could have used it for stretches at the end.. which is what I did. Just seemed like a missed opportunity. I know someone mentioned stopping this workout right away. I wonder if it had to do with her launching straight into band work instead of arm punching combos? If I could have designed this premix, I would have started with the punching weighted drills then the band work. The punch drills were fun! Hope this helps someone else

Agreed! Don't know why biceps was the sole body part left out of it. I had to go back and add the biceps chapter. However, I enjoyed the premix thoroughly. I did add some kicks in place of the knees for the boxing segments. Wish she would make the cardio all kickboxing, not jus boxing, but easy enough to modify.
