WHEN most people who are not fans of boxing used to think of boxing they would think of knockouts, Mike Tyson biting ears, that famous picture of Muhammed Ali knocking out Sonny Liston, maybe Naseem Hammed coming to the ring on a flying carpet.

But over the last few years, boxing for fitness is probably one of the most popular workouts there is!

We see female models doing boxing training as well as most of the biggest celebrities, they do it for a reason, which is not being punched in the face but to sculpt their body and more…

There are so many physical and mental benefits of boxing training.

Here are some:

  • Physical
  • Weight & fat loss
  • Muscle toning for the legs, core, arms, shoulders & back
  • Increase overall strength, core strength, power, endurance, agility, balance, coordination, reflexes & speed
  • Enhanced endurance, aerobic & anaerobic capacity
  • Self defense
  • Improved sleep
  • Mental
  • Increased confidence, self-esteem & sense of well being
  • Stress, anxiety & tension relief
  • Enhanced cerebral focus, concentration & discipline

Above all else, boxing offers a genuinely fun & addictive experience. The endorphin release and high obtained from boxing are unmatched by any other dynamic fitness activity on the market today. Furthermore, the fun never fades out, unlike most fitness trends, as you’re learning the “sweet science”, and a skill that boosts your confidence like none other.

You will undoubtedly and shamelessly find yourself shadow boxing in the shower, at work, and even on the dance floor.

After retiring from boxing around five years ago, I have trained or trained people to train around 12,000-15,000 people in Box ‘N Burn and the Box ‘N Burn Academy. People absolutely love to box and because of the benefits above, why wouldn’t you?

Here is a video of me training model and former Miss US Whitney Miller in Box ‘N Burn Santa Monica where I explain the benefits of boxing:
