You don't have to be as good at boxing as Floyd Mayweather. In fact, according to Alberto Ortiz, founder and owner of the Work Train Boxing Gym in New York, all you need to do is raise your arms.
"When I first opened the gym in 2009, boxing was a disgrace," he said. "People think it's all about Rocky or Muhammad Ali. I have to convince them that boxing isn't just for the face - it's a full body sport."
Another common misconception is that boxing is primarily an arm sport. Sure, you'll tear up your tris and bis, but Ortiz says you'll actually target more of your core and legs. "You're working your obliques because you're crunching on your side," he said. "You're going to keep your hips flexed and bounce with your toes, which will engage your quads, hamstrings, and calves."
Boxing is not only a physical exercise, but also a mental challenge. "You have to be very focused and attentive," Ortiz said. "When you focus on dealing with your coach, you leave all your relationship and work issues behind."

Exercising is not the same as recording sweat at the gym. "If you're a boxer, it's not about burning calories or fat, it's about getting good at the movement and developing skills," Ortiz said. "It takes you back to your childhood, when you wanted to be a baseball player or a ballerina." With that in mind, add some or all of these exercises to your next workout routine for added results. Each is done 8-10 times.
