Whether you've been hitting the heavy bag for a while or you're still a newbie learning how to wrap up your hands, not many workouts make you feel more powerful than boxing.
What is Legs bums & tums class?
Think about the classic Rocky montage, and you probably imagine a lot of cardio going down (such as jumping rope or running up the stairs to the Philadelphia Museum of Art). But in order to be a strong boxer, you have to focus on strength too, says Goodtree. "Boxers are typically really good at cardio, but the only way to punch harder and stronger is to have bigger and stronger muscles," she explains.
Certain strength training moves are especially beneficial for boxers because they help you build explosive movement, she continues. "For example, in the thruster, you have to use your legs to power your upper body," she points out. "Similarly, boxing isn't just upper body or lower body — it's the entire body working together." In that sense, strength training strategically will help you build that explosion and punch harder than ever.
