Jump and Jab

Mindy Mylrea
Year Released: 1997

Categories: Boxing/Kickboxing/Martial Arts


One of the best high intensity, interval videos I have ever done. Starts out with 11 minutes of warm-up which has high impact moves. The next 39 minutes is different than any other video I have ever done. You do not need a jump rope to do the first segment which is tons of jumping (I know my calves will be killing me tomorrow). She does karate kicks (coincidentally my friend mentioned that her trainer showed her those kicks and said they are great for the legs, and here they are on this video), upper arm moves with high impact jumping, fast speed foot steps - your heartrate will never go down the entire video. Her second segment, which she says is a cardio workout (heavens, what was the first segment?) has jumping jacks, double time sashays, high karate kicks - jumps and more jumps. She repeats the moves a few times and does double time moves to knock your pants off. Mindy is an excellent instructor, giving you options for the moves. The video production has a few gliches, especially toward the end where there was a repeat of a sentence, but so what? Even when she makes a mistake, or loses her balance, remember, this is not "brain surgery." It's for fun, and fun it is. I am looking forward to trying Killer Floorwork. Jump and Jab - highly recommended.
