BOXING KNOCKS OUT FOUR OTHER WORK-OUT OPTIONS


With the right jabs and swings, boxing is an effective way to turn those fats into hard built muscles. Boxing has been a professional sport since the early 80s and has been an inspiration for men’s health while enjoying contact sports.

Boxing vs. Weight Lifting. Weight lifting is a fast way to tone your muscles. However, there is a tendency for imbalances in muscle tone and size. When weight lifting is stopped at once, muscles tend to loosen up and sag, which is very unpleasant. On the other hand, boxing is a great deal as it does not only focus on the upper muscles but also work its way down to the legs as the whole body moves.

Boxing vs. Wrestling. Men’s health does not only involve contact sports or even “hurting each other.” Wrestling can be very risky as a workout routine since it can cause bone damages or sprains. And while sparring with an opponent is a must-try in boxing, it is not a requirement, which makes it safer for all ages.

Boxing vs. Yoga. It might be weird for a man to perform yoga, but the concentration and inner peace it provides is a good physical and psychological workout. The only thing is that when you are looking for an intense fat burnout, yoga is not the routine for you. Boxing brags on its skillful gestures as it requires all the body parts to move and contract, making it easier for the muscles to form and the fats to burn.

Boxing vs. Jogging. When you jog, it is true that you spend more time and effort thus leading to a good bod. However, there is less effort exerted as it works at a continuous pace so you need to add more weights on your arms and legs to achieve the best of what jogging can offer. Boxing requires you to release force that tones your muscles evenly.

Boxing is a fair task that can benefit you even when you age. The easy but forceful gestures make way for muscle toning and cardiac exercise. So why worry about making your hobby a good technique to achieve the best bod you can have?

Boxing Workout: The Best Exercise Out There

index 

For people who are looking for an intense cardio workout, you should take on boxing. A boxing workout is believed to be one of the best exercises that conditions the whole body. Just by going to the boxing gym and having a session, you are improving your endurance and cardiovascular fitness through the high-intensity and calorie-burning workout.

If this is your first time to go to the boxing gym and have a workout session, you need two basic things: boxing gloves and wrist wraps. Bringing a jump rope is optional but recommended. If you want to continue your boxing workout at home, you can get yourself a punching bag. But be warned, don’t just punch into the punching bag without knowing the proper form. You might end up with an injury.

Learning the Basics

The benefit of starting your boxing workout in a boxing gym is that you get to learn the basics from professional trainers. It is important that you are able to develop the right stance, learn the technique and learn the proper form and way to punch. Learning the basics of boxing helps prevent muscle strains and injuries.

For the proper stance, keep your feet at shoulder-width apart and stand sideways to the opponent. Your subordinate side should face the target (left side if you’re right-handed) and your dominant hand should be placed back (right hand if you’re right-handed). Knees should be slightly bend and make sure your weight is evenly distributed on both feet.

For the proper arm and hand position, keep the hands at chin level. The hands should make gentle fists. Position the subordinate hand at least 6 to 8 inches from the dominant hand (punching hand). As much as possible, your arms should be near your body.

Beginner Workout Routine

Beginners should always begin with a short workout that lasts 20 minutes long (maximum). A boxing workout is taxing on a body especially for beginners who aren’t used to the workout. The workout should begin with a warm-up by doing 3 minutes of jumping rope and 1 minutes of jumping jacks. After the warm-up, do stretching exercises.

Depending on the boxing workout routine the trainer has planned for you, you may begin to start punching the bag with jabs and cross punches. The trainer might ask you to do a combination of punches, jogging in place and some jumping ropes.

Once you learn the techniques and routine, you can start working out at home. Nevertheless, the boxing gym is always a good place to start because you get to be around fellow beginners and maybe, have the chance to see some professional boxers in actions too.

With the right jabs and swings, boxing is an effective way to turn those fats into hard built muscles. Boxing has been a professional sport since the early 80s and has been an inspiration for men’s health while enjoying contact sports.
  • Boxing vs. weight lifting- weight lifting is a fast way to tone your muscles. However, there is a tendency for imbalances in muscle tone and size.

  • Boxing vs. jogging- more like “vs. a tiring task of jogging”. When you jog, it is true that you spend more time and effort thus leading to a good bod. However, there is less effort exerted as it works at a continuous pace so you need to add more weights on your arms and legs to achieve the best of what jogging can offer.
