Hey there, April of Yes2Next here with my mom Aiko. Hi. Today we're going to do a boxing workout.
All right. All right. That's right. We're going to get our our dukes up and get our cardio.
That's your system moving. Okay. Get the heart pumping. That's right. All right. So you don't
need any equipment for this. Just your fist of fury. Have some water handy and definitely clear
the area. Yes. My mom's going to do this one seated. I'll do it standing and we'll just have
a lot of fun. Okay. So take a quick pause here and we'll get started with the warm up on the
other side. Come on. Want to have a seat? Thank you very much. All right. Okay. Let's just warm
it up. Get those feet moving. Legs moving. March it out. Okay. Good work. Breathe, everyone.
Yeah. Don't stop breathing. Don't stop breathing. That's right. Keep breathing.
Got to get ready to get in the ring. Okay. Very nice. Give me some heel touches forward.
Good work. Four. Good. Three, two, and one. March it out. Nice. Nice. I want you to give me some
side reaches to the right. Starting with the right. Here we go. Right and left. Good. And left.
One more. Four, three. Good. Two and one. Go across the chest now. Chest. Good. Two, three,
four, five. Good. Six, seven, and eight. Good. March it out. Really nice. Very good.
Okay. I'm going to kind of run you through in our warm up here what our moves are going to be.
Okay. One, we're going to do forward punches. I always want your elbows to be in. And if you're
standing, I want you to have your feet staggered so you have a nice wide base of support here.
Okay. You're going forward and you're going across. Okay. So these are the forward punches.
Okay. You can mimic me if you want. That's move one. Move two, really not a boxing move,
but I'd love this because we're going to just punch up to the sky. Overhead punches. Okay.
That's move two. Okay. Now move three is going to be some uppercuts. So we have our elbows in.
We're bringing our fists to our chin level here. Just like this. Okay. To the side. Good.
That's number three. And hooks are basically bringing our elbows up and our fists to chin
level. So up, up. Just like you're going to punch someone's head out there.
Like rock them, sock them robots here. Okay. And then the last one is just going to be some side
punches. It looks like this. So side to side. We've done those before. Okay. So that is our
warmup. We'll take a quick pause here. We'll get started with our boxing workout.
So let's just get our feet moving again. Get this workout started. Okay. First move are going
to be those forward punches. Okay. So we're standing staggered step. Okay. So punch it
forward. Punch it forward. Good. Just get in the groove here. Okay. Good. Keep those elbows in.
Elbows in. You're punching toward a single target in front of you. Okay. If you're standing,
you can kind of see my foot in the back pivot. I have a wide base of support here. Okay. Keep
going. Give me 10 from here. 10, 9, 8. Good. And 7, 6, 5, 4, 3. Good. 2 and 1. And good. March it
out. Nice work. Getting warmed up mom? Yeah. All right. Get your heart pumping. That's right.
Okay. Here's the unofficial boxing move. Overhead punches. Okay. Not really punching anyone up in
the sky, but here we go. Okay. I just love this move. You'll get your heart rate up and just
punching it up to the sky. Give me 10 from here. This is 10. This is 9, 8. Good. 7, 6, 5, 4, 3,

elbows at the side. Uppercut, uppercut, uppercut, uppercut. Yes. This is truly
as you remember that everybody, what that game was. You're dating yourself. That's right. I am.
