Welcome to week eighteen of my Boot Camp series of workouts designed to get you even stronger and more fit. Remember to work at your own pace, these workouts require that you have a strong fitness foundation. If you are new to working out please see my previous blogs to get my 12 week basic functional body-weight training program.
This week's workout is called "Kickin' Your Butt" because that's exactly what its going to do :) and because it also has kickboxing routine with it.
This routine uses only your body-weight, so there's equipment for this one. If you want help with this workout let me know and I will schedule an online workout with you.
