GAIAM Kickboxing Is Not My Jam

How to flail like a fish

Yesterday I got up early, had my morning toast with hummus, took the pups for a walk and then unwrapped the packaging to my GAIAM Kickboxing DVD. I was totally stoked to try this out because all of the kickboxing classes I’ve ever taken at a gym have been a lot of fun and took my mind off of the fact that I was exercising.

Well, I have to say, my mind was off of exercise while doing this DVD but it was not because I was having a great time. In fact, I could only concentrate on how stupid and uncoordinated I felt. The punching moves went a bit too fast for me to even feel like I was doing anything and my legs seemed to go in any direction but the right one.

This might be one of those DVDs I need to come back to and give it another shot but right now I’m content to let it retire in peace at the nearest thrift store I donate it to.

Have any of you used a kickboxing DVD you’ve enjoyed? Have you tried this one and I’m just missing something?
