The benefits of boxing and circuit training will leave you punching above your weight in the health and fitness game without any below-the-belt pills, supplements or fad diets. And while in a short time classes help you lose those few needed kilos and tone up your body, long-term boxing and circuit training leaves you with a sense of purpose and an ingrained exercise routine.
Why boxing?
Boxing improves posture and balance, and strengthens your core and upper body muscles. It also boosts endurance, alertness and mood as well as brain activity, and improves hand-eye coordination. Using boxing for fitness will still increase speed and power, as well as accuracy and agility, all without having to take a punch. As a sport, it leaves people confident and comfortable with themselves, and using boxing for fitness is no exception.
After improving fitness and strength and succeeding in reaching health and lifestyle goals with circuit training, boxing provides a skill that can be practiced, with extra goals and targets always on the horizon. By setting targets, motivation and commitment (the essentials for any healthy lifestyle) are worked on to make those who practice see continual improvement and benefits.
Boxing and circuit training PT sessions are ideal for long-term health and fitness goals, but short courses are great for short-term goals including losing a few kilos before a wedding or special occasion and toning up for beach season. And if it’s time for a permanent and complete change in your lifestyle and mentality, you can always consider continuing your classes to see what you are really capable of achieving.
So how far can you take it?
It’s up to you. Whether you’re a beginner, have recently lost motivation, have recently come back from holiday, or let the Christmas season get the better of you, boxing and circuit training with a personal trainer and lifestyle coach will see you achieve your goals and much more.
It’s also worth asking your personal trainer for dietary advice including nutritional information, health hacks and healthy recipes to cook at home, as well as online reading material to keep you on track with your targets.
