Focus on Fitness Training

Boxing Fitness Training

What is it?
A great way to let off steam and a great way to get fit. Boxing certainly brings out the best in you. In boxing sessions you will learn different types of punches, kicks, footwork and combos. These sessions do not mean you are in the boxing ring getting punched up! It’s all a mixture of cardio, stamina and endurance.

Types of punches: jab, cross, hook, uppercuts, rolling & rips
Types of kicks: straight kicks, round house & knees

Combine these types of exercises into combos, runs and drills you will definitely get the blood pumping and the arms and legs burning. Core work can also be a major part of your boxing session with a variety of sit up and crunch punch combos and some laying down bag kicks and leg raise kicks.

In a group boxing session you will work with a partner and go through various drills and exercises including running, body weight and core work together and you will also have to be the pad holder, which can be a workout itself.

Equipment needed for a great boxing session:
Boxing gloves/mitts
Focus pads
Exercise mats
Cones
Kick bags

Boxing is surprising enjoyable with most clients getting into it straight away, and once you have learnt the basics you will soon realise how much the session takes it out of you and pushes you to your limits. I think we all want to let out our frustrations and what better way to do that than participating in a boxing fitness program.

Who can do it?
Anyone! All ages and fitness levels are able do boxing, in you session to get the best workout try and partner up with someone your size and fitness level, that way you can work together at your own pace and feel comfortable throughout your workout.

Example Boxing Fitness Program

Warm Up
– Jab/Crosses x 30 seconds + run to cone
– Hooks x 30 seconds + run to come
– Uppercuts x 30 seconds + run to cone

Exercise of the Week Weekly Workout

Ad Break Workout

Post author By MaxNRG
Post date August 20, 2012

Add Fitness into your TV time!

We all get stuck after work or during the holidays watching TV and most of the time something that is not actually worth watching. To break things up and most of all get you moving, why not try some simple exercises through the ad breaks that can be done in your own lounge room.

You will be surprised how much you can do on your couch or in your lounge area without using any equipment.

Most ad breaks last about 2-4mins, so instead of getting up and getting a snack or not moving at all, as soon as the commercials come on during the show, jump up and use the ads as a timer and follow the simple exercises we have provided below.

To get the blood pumping through your whole body we have selected a variety of upper, lower and core exercises which will give you a total body workout in small burst then you can rest while your show comes back on.

Doesn’t sound hard does it? Through an hour long show you may get up to 20 minutes of ad breaks so use it wisely. In the long run it is better than doing nothing at all. We all need to be a little more active so don’t use watching your favourite TV show as an excuse, use it as a workout!

Get your kids involved! If you have children who watch a lot of TV why not use this as a fun way to them moving and they still get to watch their show!

In the end it’s not rocket science to know we have to have more exercise in our life and it doesn’t take much to get off your couch for a couple of minutes and move!

AD BREAK WORKOUT PROGRAM

– complete as many sets you can until ads are over

AD BREAK

10 x Push Ups
10 x Squats
10 x Star Jumps

> Back to watching The Shire (You know you love it)

AD BREAK

10 x Sit ups
10 x Chair Dips
20 x High Knees

> Back to watching Home & Away

AD BREAK

50 x Air Punches
30 Sec Hold Squat
Prone Hold until ads are over

> Back to watching Big Brother

AD BREAK

Jogging the on Spot – As Ads change, swap between high knees, butt kicks & fast feet

> Back to watching Big Bang Theory Repeats

AD BREAK

Challenge: Try Hold a V-Sit for the entire break!

There you have it, some simple exercises you can include between your shows, you can only benefit from giving it a go!

High Skips – Exercise of the Week

The High Skips exercise is a dynamic stretching exercise you can use before each of your workouts. Dynamic stretching is used to increase the range of movement, blood and oxygen flow to soft tissues prior to exertion and helps reduce the chances of injury.

This exercise is used to not only warm-up but to develop correct leg and foot action in preparation for the foot strike with sprinting.
The purpose of the high skip is to prepare the body for explosive running and sprinting.
Perform this exercise by doing an explosive, exaggerated skip while emphasizing height rather than distance.
Emphasize a big arm swing and explosive knee lift.
