Boxing training is hard work. Boxers are required to achieve the perfect balance between numerous different aspects of physical and mental fitness. You have to be strong enough to pack power behind your punches, yet light enough to move around the ring quickly and effortlessly (“Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee; his hands can't hit what his eyes can't see” - Muhammad Ali).
In addition to learning and perfecting the technique behind boxing, training sessions are often jam-packed with cardio, core strength, upper-body strength, leg strength, conditioning, agility, mobility, endurance, and reflex exercises. That’s what makes boxing one of the best workouts you can do for cardiovascular fitness, muscle toning and weight loss. With each 1-hour boxing session, you can burn between 800 to 1,000 calories. Aerobic exercises also lower your risk of blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes, as well as releasing a whole bunch of endorphins to lift your mood for the rest of the day.
Combine the right amount of training with a good diet and a positive mindset, and you’ll find yourself feeling faster, stronger, leaner, healthier, and more confident than ever before. But as with any difficult endeavour, the results you achieve reflect the effort you put in - so go on and book your next session with us!
