DID YOU KNOW Boxing has so many health benefits! “Boxing works your entire body and combines periods of anaerobic, aerobic, and strength building”. Boxing can help protect you from heart disease. It can help improve total body strength, better hand-eye coordination, improve body composition and generally decrease stress from your daily lives. Boxing can help improve your overall mental health.
“Mental Health is just as important as your Physical Health”
Boxing is an excellent form of stress relief and stimulates endorphin production. Stress causes muscle tension that can collect overtime when dealing with stressful situations. Boxing helps especially, considering when one punches the heavy bag, they are relieving this tension, increasing concentration helping one forget why they were even stressed in the first place.
BURN MORE CALORIES! This amazing full body workout can make you burn up to a thousand calories each workout. Even better, the harder you hit, the more you burn! The anaerobic breakdown of your large muscle groups such as legs, back, chest and arms will reshape your body as well as raise your metabolic rate! Which means that you will actually be burning more calories at rest, even while sleeping!
