Action Boxing & Fitness is a friendly down to earth gym that makes anyone (nice people) feel welcome. There's no heroes here!
The gym has been operating for around 8 years now. My interest in boxing started about 15 years ago when I moved back from Sydney and wanted to lose weight and through boxing training, saw and felt huge results. After losing around 30kg (I didn't use the scales for quite a while) and dropping around 3 - 4 dress size. I was wrapped in the results and wanted to help others reach their goals.
It's not just about the cosmetic changes that make you feel proud. I remember having to do the cross country at school (around 1.2km) and walking every step of the way. Fast forward to going through a medical in order to compete in boxing and the doctor reveals I have a resting heart rate of 44! Even he was shocked and checked it again.
Almost everyone is incorporating boxing training into their classes & personal training sessions. Everyone knows the benefits boxing in terms of stripping body fat and overall toning & conditioning but it's not as beneficial if it isn't done properly. Don't rely on a "training partner" or a fitness instructor who has completed a one day boxing course to give you a good boxing work out. Come into Action boxing & fitness and do a class (you get your first one free) so you can feel & understand the difference of real boxing training.
