It is a fun, fast workout that can be as intense as you want it to be and could be added to or changed to be more challenging. I think that the site it was on also had basic technique instruction as well. Chris found it thru google.
I wouldn't recommend doing it instead of running, but it's a fun thing to throw in for variety. I love it because it helps me feel strong. The workout is taped to my wall downstairs, but if you'd like it, let me know here and I'll post the whole thing.

Thanks and Yes, Mel I would love a copy!!!
I am going to see what responses I get from this, but may watch the video instruction or let DH teach me what he has learned. I will try it this week, and let you all know what I did and what I thought of it? I like the idea of girls punching and kickboxing too!!! Sounds tough and fun! Let out some stress!!!! LOL!
I don't think I will sub it for running, etc....I love doing that stuff too, just get bored doing the same things and from what I hear, you can get a killer cardio workout from this too?? Just excited to try/learn something brand new!
