Welcome to Marstons Mills Fitness Kick Our goal is to provide a safe and effective workout in a non competitive and fun environment. We as that you advise us of any medical or physical condition that could be affected by exercise. We believe you’ll find out program to be unique!

Our workouts consist of four basic parts: Stretching and warm-up, bag work, strength, and cool down. We strive to start and end classes on time. We encourage you to come early if you desire more time to stretch or join a class during the cool down period.

Benefits of Cardio Kickboxing

Although it may seem as if every new exercise trend is hailed as a “full body workout” these classes truly are. Punches performed with precision and power will strengthen you upper body and create muscle definition. The power kicks will strengthen you legs and the crunching knee strikes will firm your abdominal muscles. In fact, all the moves, when done correctly, will turn your torso into a solid core that brings strength to everyday tasks.

Your cardiovascular system will benefit also. Bobbing, weaving and jumping amidst the punches and kicks, elevates your heart rate for most of the session.

What’s more, a lot of people find cardio kickboxing a great way to relieve stress. Civilized as we all are, we refrain from hitting each other (which is of course a good thing). However, we’re still individuals with some natural aggression. You may find that planting your heel in the torso of a phantom foe 10 or 20 times leave you feeling wonderfully tranquil.

  • A limited number of gloves are available for use during the bag routine. We recommend you purchase your own once you decide to work out on a regular basis.
  • Hand wraps are also available and are especially useful as extra hand protection to help your gloves fit more securely.
  • We recommend you wear comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement and is appropriate for co-ed classes.
  • Footwear should be clean, supportive and comfortable.
  • We recommend having a towel available especially during the summer months and for floor exercises.
  • Water is always available for sale at a nominal cost or bring your own.

Tips for increasing your workout!

  • Keep moving — never stand still, if you can keep bouncing or running in place between strikes you will increase your workout twofold

  • Vary your speed and power with your punches and kicks
  • Sometimes go for power
  • Sometimes go for speed
  • Do as much as you can. If you are unable to do a particular exercise, either modify it or do something else.
  • PUSH YOURSELF — try to do a little more with eache class — compete with yourself!
  • Use weights for the first 20 minutes. Start off small, they get heavy very quickly!
  • Eat healthy. The better you eat the more energy you have and the harder you will be able to work out.
  • Hydrate! Proper hydration is important to a healthy body. Be sure to hydrate during the day and have water available during class.
