More Swings, Ignite Cardio and Accelerate Cardio!

Another 333 Swings done.  My gymboss timers still is not working right but it look like I did it in 15 min and 45 sec.










The Firm Express cycle 1: Ignite Cardio workout.
This is a 21 min all cardio workout lead by Emily Welsh.  In this workout you have a short kickbox cardio sections followed by 4 Cycle's of 8 sec burst and 12 sec recovery.  After you do the final burst of the workout Emily strings all of the kickbox cardio section's together.  I thought the workout was good and again I did like Emily in this one.  I give this workout 3 1/2 stars out of 5.

I thought all of the Cycle 1 workouts will definitely be good add-on's to other workouts or string them together for a longer workout, but not enough in my opinion if you do 1 a day if you are an intermediate or advance exerciser.

The Firm Express cycle 2: Accelerate Cardio workout.
This is a 20 min cardio workout lead by Rebekah Sturkie.  In this workout you have a short simi-kickbox feel with plyo cardio sections followed by 4 Cycle's of 8 sec burst and 12 sec recovery. This workout has more high impact than the first Cycle did.  My legs were giving out on my part way through due to the two workouts before this and all the plyo moves with this one.  I felt that this one would be a good stand alone workout if you only had 20 mins to workout.  the only thing that bugged me was Rebekah occasional ear-piercing Whoo!  She does this I think 5 or 6 times.  Someone needs to tell her to stop doing that.  I give this one 4 out of 5 stars.
