Optimal Life Fitness, for health, fitness and a new lifestyle outdoors.

Yesterday, had a drive up to Solihull, to run a Performance boxing course at a Fitness first there. They have just recently had one of there rooms fully kitted of with boxing gear.

We had 11 guys on the course ranging from a pro boxer to guys who had never boxed before. The standard on the course was high a lot of the guys have had some boxing experience. We got the introductions out of the way, and got straight into it, everyone got involved with learning the techniques, which everyone picked up well and started to implement them . After going though all the punches and padding technquies in the morning, the afternoon was full on training, fair play to the guys they put the effort in which was excellent to see. Later on I got Joe to do some demonstrations on the floor to ceiling bag and heavy bags, with good hand speed joe made the floor to ceiling bag look easy, which everyone found out isn't when they had a go. they all did the 3, 2 minute rounds after the the combinations early everyonws bodies were tired Next up conditioning circuits, with the last bit of energy people had, they completed to circuits which was excellent. The course went really well, the new boxing room will go down a treat. Thanks for everyone for taking part, pictures of the day are on our facebook page.
