Hi Guys and Gals
![]() I'm 22 and I'd like to start attending kickboxing classes. But before I do that, I'd like to stretch as musch as it is possible to be able to kick higher and with more speed and power.... and here's the question: do you know any effective excercises that would help me get best results in a short period of time? Could you also give me some tips concerning kickboxing classes? thank you in advance ![]() V_POL |

For flexibility I would tell you to try out pilates for at least 2 weeks. Worked wonders for me. For the power aspect you might have to get a heavy bag to work on. But the pilates will help strengthen your legs too.
