Burn 800 calories in 1 hour!

Over the last year kickboxing has become one of the most popular forms of fitness training I teach to my clients. The reason for this is, you get a great cardiovascular and resistance workout and learn valuable self-defence skills at the same time, as well as it been great fun. Like boxing classes, that have become more popular. Fitness kickboxing offers the opportunity to train like a real kickboxer, gaining all the benefits without having to get in the ring. Studies conducted in the USA have revealed that a 45 - 60 minute kickboxing session can burn off 600 - 800 calories. You can have this benefit and learn the skills with a Personal Trainer from Fit to you.
In addition to the weight loss, you are building lean muscle which raises your metabolism burning calories at rest and toning the whole body. The kickboxing exercises concentrate on the thighs, hips and buttocks unlike any other workout. By utilising partner training you get the increased motivation and commitment that makes it ideal for couples wanting to workout together or with your personal trainer. Unlike the traditional aerobics class where everyone worksat the same pace, your intensity is determined by you and your trainer.
The use of focus pads provides a tremendous form of resistance training that again builds lean muscle and has the additional perk of incresing bone density. The mental aspect of the training build self confidence knowing that you can defend yourself as well as a stress reliever being able to blow of some steam after a long day. The stretching exercises enhance flexibility and range of motion that are crucial in our everyday lives. Kickboxing is also a great way to improve agility, endurance and coordination to carry over to other sports.
So why not get all these benefits and give it a go, contact fit to you through the website or call.
