Boxing for Fast Women's Fitness & Weight Loss # 2

The first post on boxing for fast women’s fitness and weight loss looked at some basics like what you need for a boxing workout and some things you should watch out for. In this post we’ll look at how to structure a women’s boxing workout and some other tips.

A typical boxing fitness workout

• Warm up for five minutes with light weights, cardio and stretching
• Wrap your knuckles and put on your gloves
• Using a wide variety of punches lay into the heavy bag for 10 sessions of 3 minutes
• Warm down using some rope jumping or a light jog

This will get you super fit in no time and you will see lots of weight loss happening without really focussing on it at all.

Women’s Boxing Tips

Here are some tips that I would advise you work into your boxing workout:

• All roads lead to Rome in terms of fitness and weight loss. Look at boxing as another way to stay active and burn calories.
• Take your time learning the punches as boxing injuries can be hard to recover from.
• Make sure your tense your muscles at the point your fist lands on the bag and not before or after. This increases your power and decreases your chances of getting hurt.
• If your aim is weight loss try to get on the bag before breakfast so you burn fat instead of sugar.
• Enjoy it!
