Thank you Floyd!!!
boxing, personal opinion
|
So its official... Floyd "Money" Mayweather, the undeafeted boxing champion announced his retirement on Friday. In my opinion, he has kept the sport of boxing popular, and is perhaps pound for pound the best boxer there is right now, perhaps ever.
Although him showing up at Wrestlemania was obviously a publicity stunt, I think Floyd Mayweather was a great ambassador for the sport of boxing. I am a fan of Mike Tyson the boxer, but we all know what he turned into. Floyd Mayweather was a respectable opponent in the ring, and seemed like a genuine nice guy outside of the ring.
The sport of boxing will miss you Floyd!
Shane Moseley, the future of boxing is now in your shoulders....

Boxercise
gym, courses, aerobics, boxing, certification
|
A few weeks ago I decided to try a really popular class offered at the gym. I was more impressed by the instructors name (Tiger) than the name of the class which is Boxercise to Hip Hop.
Well.... wow... was I ever impresses, and VERY tired after that class.
Boxewrcising is basically shadow boxing, imaginary rope skipping, bouncing etc... with light weights in your hands all to the beat of fast paced music. The workout also contains push-ups, sit-ups, crunches and lunges.
It was a great cardio workout and an awesome full body routine as well. I found it more fun that a basic aerobics class, but that is probably because I am a fan of boxing and I also practice martial arts.
I was wondering how popular and/or widespread boxercising is. How old of an idea is this, and do trainers need certification?
If you have the option to try a cless, I highly recommend it.
