Feel the burn this winter with our special Boxing Burner!

With the holidays around the corner, I have put together the perfect workout routine for those wanting to burn extra calories just before the Christmas parties start. This workout can be done anywhere anytime. The structure looks like this:

Warm up 

Skipping (speed or K1 rope) 2 rounds x 3 mins

Workout

Shadow boxing – maintain upright position 3 X 3mins

Add weaves and ducks to every 5th or 6th move

Physical prep – either have a push, pull or leg focused circuit

Complete 2 sets of circuits

Abdominal focus – 2 moves until failure

With this abs exercise, I have focused on splitting it by movement (sagittal, frontal or traverse).

Here are a two examples you can try now! Make sure you have space around you and a timer!
