- WHY YOU SHOULD ADD BOXING TO YOUR TRAINING -
1. Your endurance skyrockets! - You don’t need to do half marathons to work on your endurance or lung capacity. Not everyone has the joint ability or physical condition to withstand long and repetitive movements. High bursts of intense physical activity increases lung capacity exponentially and will also work on your endurance.
2. ABS OF STEEL - The constant use of full connective muscles that all transfer through the core as you perform rotations with your punches, jabs, boxing combos and kicks work your all the muscles of your core without having to do 10 sets of crunches everyday!
3. Speaking of full muscle use, boxing is one of the most time efficient and effective fat burning workouts imaginable due to the full bodied-nature of the activity and high metabolic training, which means more energy is expended throughout the duration of the session.
4. You are even working your muscles when you hold the pads for someone else! So your allocated “rest time” when you hold pads for your partner is an active recovery rather than absolute rest. Your abs need to stay on, you’re reacting to your partners momentum and burning more calories!
5. You don’t need to be fit or experienced to start fitness boxing! We all start somewhere, and every class is designed for all levels, the techniques are taught to you and the combinations are different every time. The purpose of fitness boxing is to improve fitness, strength, athleticism, relieve stress and have heaps of FUN!
