High Intensity Boxing Workouts For Fat Loss

Man I am pumped! I am totally buzzing off the energy from the boxing session I just took.

I am jealous of the people that got to actually do the workout because they just got the best workout of their life!

High intensity and high energy, that’s what every workout should be like. You only get back what you put in from any workout, that’s just a fact. It’s the same with most things in life you have to but yourself out there, challenge yourself and make it happen.

If you aren’t putting in 100% at each and every session you are severely limiting your progress and will just make it longer until you have the body you have always wanted.

That’s why boxing is such a great workout. Even on a bad day you get a great workout. In fact if you’ve had a bad day, chances are that you will get a better workout!

And it is so easy to bring it when you are doing a boxing workout. Wether you are training by yourself, with a partner or within a group there is always a lot of motivation and energy flowing.

Compare this to other workouts where you can just go through the paces and make your way from one end of the session to the other without much thought or effort. Do you think this will get you where you want to be? Unlikely my friend.

Another big tick for boxing is that it can be low (or even zero) impact which is great if you need to look after your ankles, knees or back.

So let’s get this straight. Boxing is high energy, high intensity, burns a heap of fat, gets you fit in a hurry, isn’t boring like other exercise, gets better when you are stressed, can be done solo or with a partner and is easy on the joints?

Yes, yes, yes, yes yesyesyes………and yes!

Boxing is all those things and more. That’s why I rate it as one of the best all around workouts and the best conditioning exercise you can do.

Now get boxing!

    Deadlifting, Strength and Fat Loss

    Just a quick one today.

    You need to get stronger.

    If you want to get better at any athletic venture, being stronger will help.

    By the way, working out should be an athletic venture. I have female clients over 60 that do burpees and sprints. Get busy.

    If you think the workouts you are doing are tough and working well right now, just think how effective they would be if you were 10% stronger. What if you were 20% stronger?

    Think of all the extra calories your body would be burning both during and after your workout.

    Sprint faster, jump higher, more reps, more weight ->more calories burnt and the closer you’ll be to the body you have always wanted.

    Surprise yourself. Try adding some more weight to the bar, get someone to spot you and crank it out.

    It’s not rocket science, but at the end of your next workout ask yourself this “Did I really give it my best or have I sold myself short?”

    Do I practice what I preach? Hopefully by now you know that I do.
