Trying to protect my knees and replace my 3 miles running, I have tried the following replacement lately.
I have a set of 20 punch combo that include 3 to 5 punches such as:
- jab, cross, jab,
- jab, cross, hook, hook.
- hook, back fist, uppercut, hook, hook.
- hook, palm strike, hook, back fist, over hook.
- ...
If I repeat each combo 30 times, when I finished 3 miles walking, I can finish 20 x 30 x (3, 4, or 5) = 2000 punches.
I also have a set of 10 kick combo that include 2 to 3 kicks such as:
- foot sweep, side kick,
- front kick, roundhouse kick, side kick.
- inside crescent kick, back kick, front kick.
- ...
I like to do 3 miles walking + 1000 kicks on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday. For the rest of the week, I like to do 3 miles walking + 2000 punches.
I feel great afterward. Not only my legs has work out. My upper body also has good work out too.
What's your opinion on this?
