Viveca Jensen Piloxing Round 2 - Thoughts
Piloxing Round 2 is approximately 50 minutes long. Viveca takes you through a warm up that is similar to the warm up in Round 1. After the warm up, you enter a boxing cardio segment where you perform boxing drills and boxing combos that included fast football feet, twisting core work, and directional jabs.
In the Pilates block you work your arms with lots of arm pumps/pulse type moves and you work your legs with leg lifts. The word here is elongation. Viveca uses it a lot. The Pilates block also contains lots of balance work.
After Pilates is the cardio dance segment. The cardio is high in the dance segments. The music is fast and in some spots you are definitely doing the moves at tempo and with lots of flair.
You repeat blocks of boxing, Pilates, and cardio dance with different moves until the cool down. Between the boxing and Pilates segments, Viveca will give you a moment to "take it down"and get your breath before moving into Pilates.
The single arm and double arm speed bag moves I did not care for but other than that I really like Piloxing Round 2. Again super high energy. I felt the standing Pilates moves doable. Whereas in Round 1, I felt the Pilates segment a little too fast.
In Round 2, the cast (except for one) is working out with bare feet. The cast is also working out with 1/2 pound weighted gloves.
3 & 3/4 stars
