KICKBOXING HIIT: THE FACTS

OOMPH kickboxing workouts are a glorious blend of kickboxing training and effective HIIT workouts. But what makes them so unique?

Here, we’re diving deep into the science behind HIIT training and how merging it with the power of kickboxing can help you burn more calories and finally start to enjoy exercise.

A Deadly Combination

When you merge kickboxing moves with high-intensity interval training (HIIT), you get a fat-blasting combination. 

HIIT refers to a training style where you work at your max capacity for specific time intervals before taking brief rest periods. It’s the best way to train when you’re short on time and is particularly effective for cardiovascular health. 

HIIT works because it’s all about improving your recovery speed. When you push yourself to the limit before taking a rest in between, it trains your heart to recover more quickly and effectively each time. 

When you think about it, that’s the definition of fitness. The more fit you are, the faster you can catch your breath. That’s HIIT.

Add HIIT to a kickboxing workout, and you really get a deadly combination. Kickboxing incorporates explosive movement that builds strength, solidifies your core, and focuses your mind. 

Can you see why kickboxing HIIT workouts are a lethal combo?

The Stats

HIIT workouts are said to burn 25% to 30% more calories than other training styles. And with kickboxing, you’ll be able to burn up to 900 calories in an hour!

So, it makes sense that when you put them both together, it’s a killer combo. This epic duo is exactly why HIIT kickboxing is our workout of choice on the OOMPH app.
