For this workout all you will need is a kick-shield. It mixes plyometrics along with striking drills to give you an anaerobic workout that will help to strip plenty of body fat. Aim to complete the circuit 3 times with a 1-2 minute rest in between rounds and then build up to 5 full circuits. Once you are used to that then give the Kick-shield challenge a try and post your time on here.
