Episode 04: Striking a Balance: Knee Strikes, and the Dance of Boxing vs. Flow

For the Love of the Map

Have you ever eyed those high-flying knee strikes in workout videos with a mix of awe and intimidation? Join us as we recount our journey from knee strike novices to enthusiasts, especially within the pulsating beats of a boxing workout. We'll reminisce about the excitement that built up before these powerful moves made their grand debut in our routines and the unexpected twists they brought to our fitness journeys. Laugh along as we share the trials and triumphs of incorporating knee strikes into our flow and boxing regimens, and why—despite our best intentions—our year-end reflection revealed a lopsided love affair with flow workouts.

When you step into the ring of your workout space, are you looking for structure or a chance to cut loose? This episode unpacks the delicate balance between mastering the form in boxing and letting your personality shine through each jab and hook. We'll discuss how the perfect playlist can turn an ordinary session into a dance party in disguise, and share anecdotes from past workouts that left us grinning ear to ear.

So join us as we continue to explore the vast landscape of exercise, always in search of that perfect balance between form and fun, structure and spontaneity. Because at the end of the day, it's not just about the workouts we do; it's about the joy we find in doing them.
