Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This hot new fitness program is safe, intense, and best of all, a great full-body workout. And you can do it at home or in the gym. For women and men, here are seven training programs with more than 60 exercises to tone, stretch, and develop your muscles. Follow the tips for adapting them to suit every fitness level. You'll discover that these routines cover every aspect of athletic training. Aerobic exercises improve your heart rate, while jumping rope fosters speed and agility. The heavy bag demands strength, and the prolonged nature of the workout requires stamina, energy, and concentration. A number of informative charts compare the benefits of boxing to those of other sports. Choose the right equipment and exercise clothes, and then practice in front of a mirror and on the bags, and train with a partner, male or female. Nobody gets hit here! The detailed descriptions and all-color diagrams and photos explain the basic boxing stance, the mechanics of delivering punches, blocking and parrying, warm-up exercises, and several different types of boxing (aero, heel-touch, and step-jump, among them). You'll even get the lowdown on jumping rope, super-conditioning, circuits, and cooling down, as well as a small boxing dictionary! Get ready to sweat, strain, train, and improve your health.
