Kathy Smith: Cardio Knockout Review
I want to give an unbiased review, so I'll just say that this is the best boxing/kickboxing DVD known to humankind!
Working with seasoned pros Michael Olajide and Keith Cooke, Kathy Smith takes you through the basics of boxing and kickboxing, then provides two solid, sweaty workouts. This makes the DVD perfect for beginner and experienced exercisers alike. With a bonus tai chi-inspired stretch routine by popular instructor Keli Roberts, and a quick energising tai chi workout by Keith Cooke, "Cardio Knockout" is not only excellent value for money, but the kind of workout DVD you can use in different ways for years to come.
As I'm pretty uncoordinated, I always thought that kickboxing would be too difficult for me to learn. But this DVD makes it easy - you can start with the four basic punches demonstrated by Michael Olajide, then add the kicks, which are expertly broken down and demonstrated by Keith Cooke. The kickboxing workout employs simple punch/kick combinations; there are no lengthy choreographed routines to learn here. During the kickboxing workout, Keith sometimes appears in a split screen with form tips.
The boxing workout is filmed in an industrial setting - you can see flashes of arc welding in the background. This, plus the driving music and occasional black-and-white shots, gives the workout a tough, gritty feeling.
If you're looking for a tough cardio workout without dancey moves or complicated choreography and which can be performed using a minimum of space, you can't go past either of the routines on "Cardio Knockout". The only caveat I would offer is that you shouldn't do the workouts on carpet; as there is a lot of pivoting, you run the risk of torquing your knees. I put down rubber puzzle mats on top of the carpet so I can really go to town!
