Improve your cardio with this intense boxing workout
Back in the day, when my coach asked me to spell the word “hell,” all I said was: C A R D I O.
If my coach asked me to spell that word today, I would do the exact same thing. All jokes aside, cardio is one of the hardest things to do in any type of sport.
If you are an athlete then you know what I mean by that. You spend hours upon hours working on your cardio. Many people, including my early self, asked the question: WHY? Why would you spend time working on cardio when you can invest that time to work on actual skill and power?
Well, the answer is quite simple. You won’t be able to showcase your skill or your power if you don’t have the stamina and durability. Your body will fail you!
To be honest, cardio is one of the most important things in sports, especially boxing. There were phenomenal fighters who were better than their opponents but they lost because they ran out of energy, or simply, “gassed out”! That’s why boxers (and other MMA fighters) are in incredible shape.
With that being said, it doesn’t matter what your sport is, cardio is a necessity! This article will show you how you can use boxing as an excellent way of improving your cardio.
