Lowers blood pressure

Boxing and HIIT training, in general, have been shown to lower both systolic and diastolic blood pressure, helping decrease stress on the blood vessels.

Elevated blood pressure is a precursor to experiencing more serious events like heart attacks and strokes.

One study found a significant reduction in blood pressure when comparing a HIIT boxing program to a moderate intensity cardiovascular training program.

Boosts whole-body strength

While most people may think punching power only comes from the shoulder, the act of throwing a punch involves the entire body.

A good punch involves the lower limbs pushing against the ground and the coordination of the rest of the body to deliver power through the strike. Therefore, the lower limbs, as well as the core muscles, are a significant part of the punching movement.

Decreases stress

There’s a truly cathartic effect that comes from letting out your stress in a healthy way, such as by punching a bag or focus mitt.

Boxing training can vary in intensity throughout a workout, although most boxing training and conditioning programs tend to follow a HIIT protocol, which can help relieve stress.

Research has observed mood improvements among those who practice this type of training.
