I had my first lesson today. I’m just trying to learn form at first. Like where to position my feet and how to punch. I liked it but after a few minutes I was exhausted. I’d forgotten what a good workout it is!

I’ve started with a personal trainer today. He’s also a boxer and is going to start teaching me how to box this week. There are lots of boxing gyms where I live but it seems to be almost all men, which is why I haven’t tried it until now. Hopefully my trainer will be able to steer me in the right direction. :)

Getting more serious... 2 months ago

Been training more, and I want to keep being consistent. Not sure if I’ll ever plan to do a fight, but I want to keep improving my skills! My parents finally got to see my stuff and they were impressed, my Dad said my offense was really good (still gotta work on my defense though)! It was neat to show them a part of my life ;D



wing chun for now 3 months ago

My heart is in learning boxing, but there’s a Wing Chun place literally outside my door, so I’m gonna take that up for now.

More consistent! 3 months ago

Been boxing more regularly and I think I am getting better; more energy, more speed! Thankfully my husband always trains me, and he does a good job at that. I appreciate that he takes the time when he could be training with his boys :D I want to keep boxing, at least 3-4 times a week!

Fun! 3 months ago

Had a GREAT boxing session this week; finally got to spar with a girl. She was a bit taller than me and bigger built, but it was a good match. Her cardio was weaker than mine, but she managed to tag me in the face a few times which was great! I need to know what that feels like so I can react to it accordingly. I especially loved doing my mits, I’ve gotten pretty alright at the combos, and my striking!

FINALLY! 3 months ago

Found a boxing class that may work, and it’s 2 times a week. I’m going tonight, and am ready to (hopefully) spar with other girls my size!

Worked on my boxing training… Did a lot of free sparring, and my husband was pleased. He said that my hands are much faster :D

Okay! 5 months ago

I know I go back and forth on this, but I am ready to commit! Did some heave duty boxing training down at a good spot last night! It’s always a little intimidating when there are a lot of other guys around watching, but I feel confident because I know I can throw a punch. Just gotta get faster! My husband is a GREAT coach too, I am so glad he takes the time to train me.
