The Hollywood Trainer: Kickboxing-Bootcamp

Jeanette Jenkins
Year Released: 2004

Categories: Boxing/Kickboxing/Martial Arts , Circuit Training (cardio and weights)


This is kickboxing interspersed with weight sections. it's about 45 minutes long, and she packs it in.

MOST of her moves are low impact, but you get your heart pumping.

her combos are fun - and her weights are combination moves which are always good for an extra cardio burn.

Her punches are jab, cross, roundhouse, uppercut.

Her kicks are front, snap, roundhouse, side. She does do some slow back kicks too.

All in all, it's a fun workout, and I will definitely do it again. The music is fast paced and sometimes has vocals, other times, is purely instrumental.

Overall, I love this series so far. The workouts are short enough that I can do them without feeling guilty about the kids, and long enough that I don't feel that niggling doubt that i'm getting enough of a workout in.

My current goal is fat/weight loss, so it does matter to me to get in some longer workouts.

Instructor Comments:
See my other hollywood trainer reviews.

I like Jeanette. She's friendly, and agile, and fun to workout with.

Negatives: Talked *way* too much about her heart rate monitor and # of calories burned. She said at the end, she'd burned 720 calories in the 45 minute workout, based on what her HRM told her. I don't know - that seems a lot for 45 minutes.
