Knockout Workout Round 3

A bit about me...I am high intermediate to advanced at cardio, but do NOT like dancy routines and complex choreography. My fave cardio workouts/instructors are Cathe, Gilad, P90, P90X, Slim Series, Hollywood Trainer, etc.

This workout is like a combo of a high- energy hi/low/kickboxing workout. Although it was all kickboxing moves, the way it was choreographed & presented felt somewhat like a hi/low routine. Also, the music was what a would call high-energy vocal tracks typically used in aerobic routines rather than the techno-thumping that is common with kickbox workouts. Terrie has a large group of people working out with her...all shapes, sizes and ages. There is a lot of "wooping" in this workout, which will bother some, I am sure. I found it motivating rather than irritating. It is very fast-paced. The entire routine is built up on one side, then you move on & rebuild it on the other. I liked this because it was a nice change from the "mini routines" that are presented in most kickox workouts I have tried. It was a 60- minute routine that I would consider higher intermediate. (though I did wear weighted gloves throughout. I'm sure it's lower intensity without added resistance.) I really enjoyed it, and look forward to doing it again, but I got distracted with all of my new Cathes! and have only done it once!

Just wanted to note: The workout came in a generic CD jewel case, and is a DVD-R? Is that the format that many DVD players cannnot read? Anyway, I was annoyed by these issues at first, but once I did the workout I didn't lit it bother me anymore. :-)

Instructor Comments:
Terrie is very energetic & motivating
