How I Got Turned On To Women's Boxing
I'm often asked what makes me so passionate about boxing in my mid 40's. It's really simple, when I hit 40 I knew I had to start some kind of exercise - not only for cardiovascular health but also for balance and stamina. I needed to build strength. I was getting older, but I was determined not to get weaker.
So I started with the gym cardio machines, and although they are great for your heart and weight loss, they are about as entertaining as a trip to the dentist!
I was not following the yellow brick road, and going to the gym became a chore. I wanted more. Then a dear friend invited me to a kickboxing class. I went and it was the hardest workout of my life.
I fell in love with kickboxing and signed a club membership on the spot.
At that time the trainers were amazing, they pushed you and you were shaking by the end of the workout. I followed the yellow brick road to kickboxing. After I got the cardio down and really learned how to work parts of my body I became very intrigued with boxing. The techniques are amazing and you can get a powerful workout without the kicks. Plus, boxing requires incredible mental concentration so it's impossible to get bored!
I still love to do kickboxing, but keep reading my blog and I'll give you tips to achieve an amazing body with a women's boxing workout!
