Boxing Workout #1: Power Punching Intervals

This is not your average bag workout. Go all out with 100% power and intensity.

  • 10 rounds x 1 minute: Heavy bag power punches
  • 1-minute rest between rounds

No tapping, no resting—just relentless full-power punches. Focus on speed, form, and controlled aggression.

Boxing Workout #2: Technical Partner Rounds

Perfect for sharpening your boxing technique and timing with a partner.

  • Round 1: Jab-for-jab — Focus on slipping, parrying, and reading distance
  • Round 2: 1–2 combo drills — Emphasise good guard and head movement
  • Round 3: Add the lead hook — Develop combination flow and start weaving
  • Round 4: Add the rear cross — Full 4-punch combo, increasing intensity
  • Round 5: Open sparring — Apply it all in a live scenario

This format ties in well with our striking combinations guide.

Boxing Workout #3: Burpee and Bag Burner

  • 30 seconds burpees
  • 30 seconds heavy bag strikes
