WHY IS IT GOOD FOR ME?

  • Improved heart and lung function

  • Muscle toning and increased energy

  • Make the Weight schemes are also popular, helping people to achieve realistic and attainable weight goals through boxing training

  • Boxing gyms often have a great feeling of community, so it can be a very sociable sport

  • WHAT EQUIPMENT DO I NEED?

  • LADIES - A sports bra is essential, and you should train in clothing you feel comfortable in. A t shirt or vest and leggings, tracksuit bottoms or shorts is usually acceptable for beginners

  • If you attend a taster session, the club will usually provide you with gloves. Bag gloves are inexpensive and available at most sports shops

  • To spar or compete you will need a gum shield

  • You can buy specialist boxing boots, but for beginners, a pair of trainers with good support is usually good enough

  • Bandages help protect the hands and knuckles, but consult your club
