Quickfix - Total Cardio Kick November 7, 2008
Total Cardio Kick with Janis Saffell is a no-nonsense cardio workout based on kick boxing. You don't necessarily need a foundation in kick boxing, but it might take you a few times through to get the moves down. There is, however, one participant who does provide modified moves for the beginner. The workout consist of 4 10-minute intervals, each focusing on a different area of the body - arms, legs, abs, and a final total body combo bonus. Janis is an excellent instructor and her form, along with the other two participants, is perfect. If a quick cardio workout is what you are looking for, this program delivers. I thoroughly enjoy this workout every time I do it and I never find it boring.

That said, I can't understand why brand new copies are being sold at such a ridiculously high price. I know I didn't pay that much for mine. If you really want to purchase this workout, might I suggest you check out the Quick Fix Total Cardio Mix - The Complete Cardio Workout System, which includes this work out along with the Quick Fix Cardio Hip-Hop Workout in a program you can mix and match. It sells for a fraction of the price of this single workout.

Most effective workout DVD ever!!! August 15, 2008
Janis Saffell's three 10-minute workout sessions (and fourth 'bonus' session) are so feasible - I am actually able to do them on a daily basis (on average, about 3-4 days a week). As a graduate student who also works full-time and is exhausted by the end of the day, that's saying a lot!!! The sessions seem to go by fast, but I'm always dripping sweat by the end! Saffell doesn't overdo the reps while at the same time she does them enough for you to feel the burn - and she keeps it interesting! I actually find myself ENJOYING many of her workout routines!!! They feel GOOD and are challenging, rather than making you feel miserable and wishing it was over already! Furthermore, Saffell and the two ladies with her in this video have the amazingly rare ability to keep you motivated without being annoying!

Good Supplement for Karate Outside the Dojang August 5, 2008
Quickfix - Total Cardio Kick
In martial arts, we concentrate on forms and self-defense techniques, and I've noticed that, in sparring, it's a combination of aerobic stamina as well as how to "chain" your attack. I did try to supplement my karate sessions with additional sessions of kickboxing, but the hour-long workouts were simply draining. I'm also fifty-six. I've found that these ten-minute sessions can be an excellent supplement to the karate practice I do outside the dojang. Right now, I'm concentrating on the first and third workouts; i.e., the boxing and ab segments. I already do a light ab workout, but this is tightening the abs in a standing position through boxing moves. There's also footwork, which is a necessity in sparring. A fourth ten-minute bonus workout is accessible through the main menu, so I have the third (kicks) and fourth (all-around) ten-minutes workouts to look forward to. I like that I can go at my own speed, improvise (as one of the assistants does while Ms. Saffell and another assistant do strict form), and even choose which workout(s) I will do on a particular day. There are a number of styles of karate, and my style, Soo Bahk Do, emphasizes the hands as well as the feet for self-defense. A really good choice DVD to have as a supplement to at-home karate practice.

Best way to start in kick boxing July 3, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

My wife and I work with this video and we alternate with other two "old" Gillad videos and some weights. One day this video, the next weights and so on... We are not gym buffs. we just like this video so much that I actually broke the DVD one day, and the next we found it in the grocery store (that was a lot of luck for me) and we bought it again. Needless to say, we use it often. Great energy! Novices will be able to do either a 10-min segment or 2, or all 4. Good stuff!
