Kickbutt Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I go to cardio classes as often as I can at my school and it's different every time...not sure exactly what you're looking for though...

niel0092 Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 While it's not a drill people at my school have been running in 5k races lately. They run before and after class most nights. Don't know if this helps but you could try it. "Jita Kyoei" Mutual Benefit and Welfare Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dreamer38f Posted July 31, 2001 Share Posted July 31, 2001 I do cardio kickboxing aerobics - just coordination and cardio, treadmill- 3 minute intervals of fast/slow to burn fat and endurance, fencing - for speed and timing, kayaking - on the river for upper body and abdominals. weights - for lower body I try to rotate so i don't get bored and to work on different areas. While these are not really drills they do help with my tae kwon do in different ways If you think you can't, then you must. If you must, you will.

Jerry Trimble Posted August 11, 2001 Share Posted August 11, 2001 Zee, When I fought for my world Title is Atlanta Georgia, my manager sent me to train with Tim Hallmark, Hollyfield's fitness trainer in Houston Texas. He would push me in different areas of training and we would keep track of my heart rate, BPM. count the BPM for 6 seconds then ad a 0. 10 Beats in 6 seconds would be 100 BPM. this was the way we kept track of my endurance improvement. We did many different exercises and after each one when we were at rest, i would measure my heart rate, BPM and then when i would start up again after a minute(the time for rest in between rounds) I would measure it again, to see how fast my recovery was, how much i could lower it before i began again. it was excellent in the way i would be able to see improvement in my endurance. 1. weights and cardio mixed. do a complete set of exersices on the machines then run for about a minute or two. then back to another set, (circuit training, light and high reps) then run again, start off with two sets then build up. and after you do your next set of weights do a few minutes on the stationary bike, then the next set do the versaclimber. break it up. remember, one way you can stay motivated in your training, the body, mind and spirit has to work together, challenge the mind, strenthen the body and push the spirit. with consistancy you will see results in those areas. always record your training, the results, what works and what doesn't. 2. In a pool wearing a wet suit that keeps you just above the water and shadow box, punching and kicking, excellent training. remember to keep track of your heart rate. you control your heart rate, don't let it get out of control. force yourself to breath in as slow as you can then exhale slow as you can. this will lower your heart rate so that you are able to maintain a level of consitancy with executing good technique on everything you do. these are just a couple of techniques that's worked for me. anyway i hope this helps. Good luck, be smart in your training. "A Champion is one who believes in himself, even when no one else will."---Sugar Ray Robinson Peace.

moobrack Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 A bleep test is where you run from one end of a stretch to the other in time with the beeps.The beeps get faster and it becomes harder to get to the other end in time.It's great fun and very tiring.

KickChick Posted August 13, 2001 Share Posted August 13, 2001 Taezee... What is your current routine consist of?? In order to modify it, maybe you just need to bring it up a notch or involve just some cross training. Of course, I'm a firm believer in the advantages of cardio kickboxing since I teach it but I also weight lift, run and swim (all things that I enjoy doing!)
