You Have To Try This Workout
I've tried many forms of exercise: weightlifting, martial arts, swimming, running and so on. But there's one form of exercise I started doing about 3 months ago that's proved to be an unbelievable workout....
....boxing!
Now I don't mean with sparring gear on, getting hit in the head. I'm referring to either using a punching bag by yourself, or punching mitts with a training partner. The workout is exhausting and also somewhat of a stress reliever.
I use Everlast gear because their products hold up. We do three intense 2-minutes rounds each with sit ups in between...I'm telling you, what a workout!
These are purely my recommendations based on past experiences:
My training partner and I use the following Everlast punching
mitts:
http://store.everlastboxing.com/everlast-high-performance-mantis-punch-mitts.html. Only $45 dollars and they work great.
If you'd rather not workout with someone, you can get the following punching bag from Everlast for only $160 dollars:
http://store.everlastboxing.com/everlast-freestanding-heavy-bag.html. It'll last you a long time.
If you think you're in tip top shape, try developing a workout that focuses around boxing. Like me, you may soon find yourself thinking "whoa!"
