The Complete Boxing Workout

Boxing is increasing in popularity nowadays.  But maybe this might not be entirely because of professional boxers.  Big name boxers are now on the decline.  And big prize fights don’t reach the purses of ten years ago.

But on the whole, boxing as a physical work out and Exercise is going down to the grassroots with boxing gyms springing up all over the place.  From my personal experience, this is because boxing is more interesting than the old standard aerobic exercises, and offers more variety than velo-spinning or the treadmill.

Boxing training gyms have gone a long way from the dark seedy and all male enclave.  It has gone into the mainstream, where the largest enrollment in some places are for young women who want to develop their muscles and learn how to punch, but not necessarily in that order.

Boxing offers a lot in terms of an all-around workout.  It develops stamina, with the requisite roadwork, and the jumping rope.  It also helps make for more flexibility.  And unlike lifting free weights, boxing develops the major muscle groups without putting emphasis on any single one.  As a Cardio Workout, sparring, punching the speedbag, and jumping rope is understated.  Jumping rope burns more calories than cycling or running.

A stint at the speed ball helps a lot with eye-hand coordination.  It should be obvious but unless you think about it hard, you won’t get it.  That’s because it looks almost too easy not to hit the ball.  It does bounce back, doesn’t it?

One other advantage a boxing regimen has over other gym routines is the intensity of the coach.  The trainer looks out for the boxer, and gives instructions which require a well-rounded training, from the speed and coordination, to the power punch on the heavy punching bag; to the legwork where you are asked to dance from side to side and gliding forward and back.

As a form of exercise, boxing does have a lot to offer.

Body & Soul $20 When French sociologist Loic Wacquant signed up at a boxing gym in a black neighborhood of Chicago’’s South Side, he had never contemplated getting close to a ring, let alone climbing into it. Yet for three years he immersed himself among local fighters, amateur and professional. He learned the Sweet science of bruising, participating in all phases of the pugilist’’s strenuous preparation, from shadow-boxing drills to sparring to fighting in the Golden Gloves tournament. In this experimental ethnography of incandescent intensity, the scholar-turned-boxer fleshes out Pierre Bourdieu’’s signal concept of habitus, deepening our theoretical grasp of human practice. And he supplies a model for a carnal sociology capable of capturing the taste and ache of action. Body & Soul marries the analytic rigor of the sociologist with the stylistic grace of the novelist to offer a compelling portrait of a bodily craft and of life and labor in the black American ghetto at century’’s end.
