Cardio Kickboxing Workout | All-in-one #5 | Low Impact | Exercises for Seniors & Beginners
This is another all-in-one workout including 20 minutes of low impact cardio kickboxing moves, followed by strength, balance and stretching exercises. We'll finish with a 3 minute breathing mindfulness activity with Jennifer Innis (please see below for info). This is a full-body workout geared to make you move and gain strength while also taking time to stretch out the body, focus on breathing and calm the mind. I recently completed a mindfulness based stress reduction course and wanted to bring some mindfulness into the workout. Jennifer was kind enough to allow me to use one of her sessions in this workout.
This is a little bit more challenging than some of my beginner workouts but as always, go at your own pace and take breaks when you need them. As always, this is low impact. Please use your judgment on when to modify exercises. If you feel a move isn't good for you, please change the exercise to a move that is more suitable for you. You can walk in the comfort of your own home with this workout:)
