After the birth of my second child I was
looking for something that would improve my energy level
while helping me to get back into pre-pregnancy shape.
Boxing with Ruben has done that for me. With each week
of training, I’ve gotten stronger and my endurance has
increased significantly. Boxing has also helped my
enthusiasm for a regular workout routine. It is not only
empowering but fun too. As a teacher Ruben is patient,
dedicated and intense. Once you start these challenging
workouts you’ll keep coming back for more.
I started boxing with Ruben about a
year ago because I wanted to mix up my cardio routine. However once
I started I got hooked and it became my main source of cardio
exercise. It's one of the best cardio workouts for the entire body.
If you're not looking for a cardio routine, but simply want to
release some stress, this is exactly what you need.
You'll be throwing combinations for 12 rounds (3 minutes per round
with a 1 minute in between. Besides getting a good cardio workout,
Ruben will instill in you the proper boxing technique by teaching
you how to use your legs, hips, mid-section and arms when throwing a
punches.
Boxing with Ruben is definitely worth an hour or two out your entire
week so try it and you definitely won't be disappointed.
