6 benefits of boxing
RELIEVE STRESS
No matter what you bring into the room, as you hit the bag, your brain increases production of endorphins – neurotransmitters that create feel-good thoughts. Punching can also relieve muscle tension that is built-up throughout the day.
BUILD CONFIDENCE
There is something incredibly empowering about learning defending yourself. After a class, you leave feeling stronger and energized.
IMPROVE MENTAL FOCUS
As you work key punches and defensive moves, you will find your focus is improved, increasing your concentration. Some boxing programs call out the names of the punches, executed in unison by everyone in the class, to reinforce memory recall and keep you present in the moment.
GET A TOTAL BODY WORKOUT
It is a common misconception that boxing only works out your arms. Throwing a punch is a total body movement – the power in your punch actually comes from the ground up from your legs through your core and ultimately your arms.
WORK OUT EFFICIENTLY
Boxing does what you want a workout to do. It is a fun and engaging way to tone and sculpt muscle. A boxing workout increases metabolism and improves mobility, strength, hand-eye coordination and core stability.
LEARN A SKILL
Whether you are putting on gloves for the first time or the thousandth time, there is always room to grow. There is no such thing as the perfect punch; part of the addiction is building your skills — getting faster and more powerful every day.
