This is going to help your cardio, again, for two minutes at a time. Circle one way for two minutes, circle the other way for two minutes, then circle the next way for two minutes and try to get 3 two minute rounds of actually circling the ring. So we're just basically going to just keep circling. We're bobbing, we're weaving, we're moving up and down. It's almost like shadowboxing. We're still not throwing any punches, but we're just going around and around the ring. It's alright to hit the ropes, it's all right to get in there. We're just circling, we're just circling, we're just circling the ring. We're still going to the right, we're still going backward, we're still going to the left, we're still going forward, but we're basically just circling the ring."
