I have never seen a more grueling workout. I have been a bodybuilding and overall fitness fanatic since I was 14. I love the iron but I have to give credit where credit is due, BOXING TRAINERS ARE THE ABSOLUTE BEST! Not only do they spar with you (that's a small part of it) they get your body hard as stone and your cardiovascular system will be better than that of a runners. If you've ever fought before you know that lasting for more than 5 minutes of real fighting is hard. Imagine being ready for 36!

If you really want to get in shape find your nearest boxing gym and get in shape. You will also feel good knowing you can go a full 12 with any goldengloves contender by the summertime!
I have to agree with you. This past summer I wanted to try something new, so I joined a boxing gym and I showed up 3 times - oh my fucking god. veeeery intense. I didn't want to have to devote an hour n' a half each day and lose 15 lbs of muscle so I quit...

Everything that we did, was on a timer of 3 minute intervals (a round), and we got 1 minute rest.

Started out with about 5 rounds of jumping jacks for a warmup - jump roping for 15 fucking minutes is not an easy task. Your calves wanna DIE afterwards!

Then about 3 or 4 rounds of ab exercises, not easy.

Then the punching bag - it is MUCH more difficult than it looks... keeping your arms up, punching that fucker for a few rounds - at that point you want to die.

Then either glove work in a ring, or more exercising on stationary bikes and other machines...

You walk out drenched with sweat, intense stuff
