So What Is Boxercise?

Boxercise is an excellent, fun way to lose weight, burn fat, tone muscles and improve fitness.

Basically, boxercise is boxing for cardiovascular effect rather than squashed noses. It involves shadow boxing, glove and pad work with some classic exercises.

Boxercise classes are a mix of traditional boxing moves with aerobic session.

Boxercise has a very good calorie burn and a high average heart rate for a session with natural breaks in it. The mix of exercise keeps the heart rate up and the arms and shoulders get a great workout, which builds strength endurance. The class mirrors a traditional aerobics class with warm up, core aerobic workout and cool down.

Boxercise provides the benefits of boxing, including upper body and abdominal toning and is also a good exercise for the whole body because the power in punches comes from the legs and then pivots up through the hips and into the arms. The use of sequence moves with pads and exercise create a constant cardiovascular workout.
