Cardio Kickboxing is a sport specific equipment based fitness program created by Frank Thiboutot at The Bay Club in Portland, Maine in 1992. The original circuit training format was developed to promote the sport of kickboxing through kickboxing for fitness. The techniques used during the one-hour workout are based on authentic kickboxing techniques which provide both resistance and cardio vascular benefits to its participants. The techniques learned can also be used for self-defense purposes. Similar copycat programs have been promoted with or without the use of equipment with cardio kickboxing becoming almost a generic term for this type of workout. However, Cardio Kickboxing is a registered U.S. Trademark, #1,890,451.
