Boxing

Johnboat · 01-09-2010

Is boxing a good cardio / aerobic workout. I hate aerobic workouts, but I figure if I have to do it I might as well get a cheap punching bag and beat the crap out of something.

Thanks

For at least one of the three cardio days I do heavybag work, jumprope and shadowboxing. It gets my heart rate up much higher than treadmill sprints and it's easier on my knees. It's also not nearly as boring

The best cardio workout I've ever done was at a kickboxing class. The combo of legs plus arms will whup you into shape pronto. Boxing by itself is still a terrific workout, though.
