Boxing

You don't have to be taking chunks out of your opponent's body to enjoy boxing & gain from its substantial physical benefits. The ring is designed for the slightly more confident & thick skinned of you, but everyone can use Boxing's rigorous training routine to burn some off some serious carbs. Using punch & speed bags, gloves & pads, medicine balls & doing some skipping will turn you into a nimble little butterfly before you know it! Also, kick-boxing is a fun & athletic way of improving your physique & a great means of dipping your toes into martial arts. Whether you brave the ring or not, women's boxing is serious about enjoyment & results.

Benefits of Women's Boxing

The physical benefits of boxing (or its training at least) are based around the agility & stamina you will develop. By its quick-fire movements, you will burn loads of calories & cut down the excess body fat. You will increase your muscular strength, toning that body & redefining your shape to make you feel sensational. A good form of cardiovascular exercise, you will improve your lungs & heart so more oxygen will pump into the muscles giving the ability to step up your game & be healthier than ever. Perhaps most importantly in today's world, boxing & kick-boxing are a good source of stress relief through the lashing out on the bag & also building up a repertoire of constructive force skills you will learn invaluable self-defence lessons.

Equipment & Preparation

The dangers of boxing are obvious if you choose to enter the ring, however just keeping to low contact in a gym environment is a pretty safe way of exceeding your exercise targets. Always remember to warm up properly as quick movements can cause real problems for an ill-prepared body, always wear supportive shoes & tape up your wrists as they absorb a large amount of concentrated impact when using the punch bags or speed balls. We recommend consulting a professional before embarking on any boxing to ensure you follow the correct routes to a fit & healthy activity. Once set up, boxing for women is a great way to build up a great range of skills & fitness on the way to being less stressed, more agile & gain even more confidence!
