Do You Use All Eight Limbs When You Exercise?

If you find classes in Australia offering boxing near you then we definitely suggest you take part in a trial class. Most boxing gyms offer one on one boxing sessions as well as small group sessions, and most gyms, because they want your business, offer a free trial class. Boxing, and there are several different kinds of boxing, has been a hot exercise trend for a number of years. It is an exercise form that works out all parts of your body, offers results almost immediately, give a great cardio work out, and leaves you feeling great!

What are the eight limbs?

You have two arms, two legs, two knees and two ankles, eight in total. A boxing gym in Australia will explain the concept of eight limb boxing to you, also known as Muay Thai. But this is not the only kind of boxing available. Most boxing gyms offer cross training as well, and will combine boxing with a variety of exercises.

If you look at the changes in people’s bodies, before and after a few boxing sessions, it is quite astonishing. Boxing strengthens all the muscles. The eight limbs are used at the same time. Arms become firmer, quads become sleeker, the butt changes in shape and size. Boxing works out your abs, which may not be a limb but get a great work out anyway! And boxing improves your health, physical and mental.

If you are looking for a new form of exercise, one that makes you feel and look fantastic, one that inspires you and motivates you, and one that is quick, look at boxing. It might not be for you, perhaps spinning is your thing, but we always urge people to try new things.

Is there boxing near you? If yes, we think you should give it a good shot. And love the new you!
