The vast majority of people hate doing cardio. By ‘cardio’ I mean traditional cardiovascular exercise such as running, cycling, etc. What if there was an alternative cardio you could do, that would give you all the great cardiovascular benefits without the pain!
Boxing! In all my years of personal training I cannot remember someone not enjoying boxing. It gives you are the fat burning, cardiovascular benefits that running or cycling does. It is a great stress release, and when done properly highly effective and burning fat from all parts of the body.
There are 2 options if you want to do boxing from home. You either hang a punchbag up, in your garden or garage. This way you can work-out on your own without needing anyone else’s help. Or if you live with or know someone who wants to take it up with you, just buy a pair of boxing pads and take it in turns to hold them for each other.
Boxing can be as technical or simple as you like. But to get you started, simply stand front on to the pads/punchbag with your arms up at shoulder height, and alternately swing them into the pads. Make sure you keep your wrists straight and keep your thumbs out of the way. Try boxing for sets of 1 minute and resting in between.
Today’s Takeaway – Cardio does not have to be long and boring. give boxing a go!
