Up against the wall NOW!!! More Drills
This is a
BoxAerobics pattern from
www.turnstep.com.
(pattern 6547)
The following is something I usually do at the end of my
kickboxing class (in case anyone is still exhibiting signs of
too much life). I do both legs and you can do as many as you
want of each kick. These are actually great for any class as
they are muscle strengtheners. Happy Kicking!
#1.
- Standing up against the wall or mirror or if you have a
bar in the class. Do a 4 count chambering up front kick
on the right leg (lift the knee, extend the leg, pull the
leg back in to a bent knee, lower the leg). This is not
truly a kick, just the motions of the kick in a very
controlled manner. I do 16 on the right leg. DON'T CHANGE
LEGS!
- Now with the same leg, keep the knee bent and just extend
and bring in the lower leg. 32 times. DON'T CHANGE THE
LEGS!
- Now with the same leg, do a 4 count side kick. 16 times
- Now with the knee lifted out to the side hold it there and
just extend the lower part of the leg out and in
32 times.
- Now I do what is called a double flick kick with the right
side kick (side kick with 2 pulses before you come down)
32 times or so.
- Lastly, Do a 4 count back kick (not actually a kick, just
the movement slowly) 16 times.
- Keep the back leg up and just extend and bend the leg 32
times. The body needs to accomodate each of these kicks
with proper alignment. ABS in tight and lean in a counter
balance to help support.
NOW DO THE OTHER LEG.
Like I said this can be done in any class. The participants
love it and hate it (which is a good thing). They always
complain about their BUTTS killing them the next day. That is
a good thing!!!
ENJOY!
E me with any comments or questions.
