Boxing

Boxing is one of those sports misperceived by some people, being labeled as a violent sport, intended only for men.

First of all, boxing is by no means a violent sport if you choose to practice it at amateur level, to exercise and to develop different skills. This type of physical activity is not only intended for men, addressing both sexes, without any impediment for ladies and gentlemen.

Boxing requires a certain degree of strength, speed, agility, hand-eye coordination, endurance and strength, to name just a few attributes. Therefore, if you choose to practice this sport, you will have the opportunity to perfect these athletic skills, without receiving a shot, using only a punching bag.

You should also consider boxing at the gym or at home, because:

- improves your respiratory and cardiovascular system;

- improves your posture and reflexes;

- will help you get rid of stress in a constructive way;

- will help you lose weight and strengthen your muscles.

Last but not least, boxing can be practiced in the comfort of your own home by purchasing sports items and accessories that are not very expensive. A standard boxing equipment for home training consists of a pair of gloves and a punching bag and is a smart investment that you can enjoy in the long run.
