If sports, and more specifically boxing, were on your list of projects for the year, we have some tip for you!
Because between your objectives or your questions when you start, the many discoveries during the first lessons, and the challenge of maintaining motivation over the weeks, the discovery of boxing is full of riches.
Starting boxing is not necessarily approached in the same way as another discipline: even among combat sports, it has a great reputation.
Exactly, let’s start there! Before setting foot in a boxing gym, we often have in mind the image of a harsh and rough sport where we sweat blood and water in the ring.
Obviously, the masterpieces of cinema in the form of a declaration of love for this sport have a lot to do with it. But once the first training has started, you quickly realise that boxing is a story of touches and dodges before being a story of blows.
Well, before asking yourself the question of stepping into a ring, you have above all the opportunity to discover your limits, to set yourself objectives, but also to open yourself up to other advice and through this progress.
How about starting with cardio boxing?
The boxes? Yes, if you hesitate between different types of boxing or if you want to try before choosing, know that there are many variants : boxing fists and feet (Savate, kickboxing) or only with fists (English boxing ), hits all over the body or just above the waist, grabs (Muay Thai) etc.
But if one thing doesn’t change, it’s the intensity level! Whatever boxing you practice, cardio and muscle work has qualities that many other sports envy.
Moreover, more and more clubs are offering classes based on the physical and cardio work of boxing. That’s what we call cardio boxing.
