Elite 10-Minute At-Home Kickboxing Workout

A fit, middle-aged Spanish man in his late 40s performing a side kick during a kickboxing workout in a rustic, sunlit garage.

 Let’s clear something up.

You don’t need an hour.
You don’t need a gym.
And you definitely don’t need fancy gear.

If you train with intent, 10 minutes is more than enough.

This is the exact kind of kickboxing session you can do in your living room when time is tight but skipping isn’t an option.

No fluff. No fillers. Just work.

🛑

Safety Protocol: Consult a doctor before starting. These routines are high-intensity. You assume all risk of injury entirely at your own discretion.
Push hard, but push smart.


The Setup

Time: 10 minutes
Rounds: 5
Round Length: 2 minutes
Rest: None (or take 10–15 seconds if you have to)

Shadowbox. Bare hands or gloves. Shoes or barefoot. Doesn’t matter.
What matters is output.

Round Breakdown

Round 1 – Straight Work

Jab. Cross.
Jab–cross.
Move your feet. Breathe through your nose.

This round is about warming up without wasting time.

Round 2 – Hooks & Rotation

Cross–hook.
Hook–cross–hook.

Turn your hips. Don’t arm punch.
You should feel this in your core by the end.

Round 3 – Add Kicks

Jab–cross–lead kick.
Cross–rear kick.

Reset your stance every time.
Balance matters more than speed here.

Round 4 – Close Range

Punch → knee.
Elbow → elbow → knee.

Stay tight. No big swings.
This is where conditioning starts to show.

Round 5 – No Thinking

Freestyle.
Punches, kicks, knees. Keep moving.

You don’t stop in the last round.
You empty the tank.

Technique Help (Optional, Not Required)

If you need a quick refresher or want to clean things up, this helps.

   

Watch once. Then train.

How Hard Should This Be?

If you finish this and feel fine, you paced it wrong.

  • Beginners: go controlled, focus on form

  • Intermediate: steady pressure

  • Advanced: this should suck by minute 7

Short workouts only work when you don’t coast.

FAQ

Is 10 minutes actually enough?
Yes, if you’re not scrolling between rounds.

Do I need a bag?
No. Shadow kickboxing builds conditioning, coordination, and rhythm.

How often can I do this?
3–5 times a week. It’s perfect on busy days.

Is this good for fat loss?
It helps, but diet still runs the show.

Can I repeat this workout?
Absolutely. Repeat it until it feels easy. Then go harder.

Final Thought

Elite training isn’t about time.
It’s about showing up when it would be easier not to.

Do the 10 minutes.
Do it clean.
Do it often.
