With a new year comes new fitness goals. Maybe your goal is to lose weight, maybe it’s to run a race, regardless of the goal, you’ll need to create a game plan on how to get there.
And while there are some main components that are part of every fitness plan such as nutrition, exercise and sleep, boxing could be the secret to success.
Here are three reasons that you should hit the bag hard in 2018:
Boxing truly is a full-body workout. Do you like the type of workout that pushes your body to the limit? Boxing and kickboxing utilizes the muscles in your legs, core, chest, back and arms allowing you to compliment other forms of cardio and strength training.
Training is a process. There is leg day, chest and triceps, back and biceps, shoulders, ab work and shoulders. It’s a great switch up to spend an hour working these parts of your body rather than focusing muscle groups.

Boxing is a skill. While weight lifting, running, cycling and other forms of exercise requires skill and technique, boxing is a different animal. There is footwork, offense, defense, body movement, different types of punches, different speeds of punches, breathing, ring presence, head movement and so much more.
Once those gloves are on and that bell rings, those jabs, uppercuts, crosses and hooks will be the only thing on your mind. You instantly forget that you’re working out but rather you feel like you’re boxing. That simple distinction changes the entire way you feel about your workout…

The feeling you get when boxing. From the second your hands get wrapped you’ll feel awesome. That’s the bottom line. When you land a power hook and that bag flies with a loud cracking sound you can’t help but feel badass.
Also, any problems you had moments before the start of the class are gone. There are no thoughts about your boss, about family issues or anything else that could be stressing you out. It’s just you vs. the bag for a whole hour. Boxing is cheaper than therapy.
