Boxercise became popular in the UK in the early ninties and was started by Andy Wake as an alternate form of exercise.
The training sessions include all muscle groups and focus on standard boxing exercises like bag work, skipping, ab training and defensive manouvers. Classes are 1 hour in duration and are lead by one of the Randburg Boxing Club coaches.
The exercises are broken into four minute rounds with a thirty second break between rounds. Each round focuses on a different muscle group. For example, you will start with a warm-up round, next an arms workout, then shoulders and chest, then back followed by legs and finally stomach exercises.
It's not necessary to improve your fitness levels before join our Boxercise classes as the coach leading the class will suggest alternate exercises for the new recruits and also monitor the exercises to ensure that injuries do not happen.
If you are very fit, then you are in for a suprise. We've had rugby players, body builders and runners join our classes only to find that boxing fitness is very different to other types of fitness.
We offer a first class free for those trying it out. Wear a pair of running shoes with comfortable training clothing. Aside from that, all you need to bring is a towel.
