Fitness Kickboxers! Let me see your Before and Afters!

My gym is starting a kickboxing class next month. I can't wait to try it! I currently do spin and and zumba, so I'll aim for one or two classes a week. I'm told this class will be very choregraphed. Can't wait, did I say that already?

I start a four week class in October. Not sure how much mine will do, but best of luck with yours.

My kickboxing class is once a week. I wish it would be offered more often, but the guy who trains us says that for beginners level, once a week is a good pace, and that between classes we should practice on our own and do 15 min of rope jumping and then another 45 min of cardio. I don´t have kickboxing progress stories to tell yet, but I´ve been doing yoga for over 15 years, and that is successful pursuit. Good luck with your class. I hope you gonna like it. I love mine.

I just started a kickboxing bootcamp this week. It's 90 minutes, 3 times a week for 6 weeks. I've only got about 15-20 pounds left to lose and am hoping to lose about 10. I'm also lifting weights and running though

i love kickboxing, you get the stress out, your concentration is improved plus you have lots of fun. For me, MMA kickbox works much better the cardio AE kickbox. I had now almost 13 years break but last week i have started again and yeah, it's great.

Not a recent story but I started doing martial arts again about 3years ago. The style was pretty much a mixture of everything to start off with including traditional karate. A
I trained about 3hrs each session 3times per week and also did my own training every lunch and morning tea and afternoon tea break because I go that re motivated. The length of time I trained was my choice and about 2 hours of that was intense boxing, kicking, lining training, mma, all in one stuff. During this time I also did a 12week boot camp of food monitoring etc. I lost 15kgs in 12 weeks which was ridiculous, but, I felt bloody good for having getting back into training, finding the motivation to the point of intense training feeding my adrenalin and now knowing the way I want to do it this time round. GOOD LUCK! I still do all this training now but no way to the same intensity. I've just started crossfit tonight and I feel great! Weight to come down but at a slower pace than last time!! you will love the rush, hard work and the gains not just physically but skills too. Enjoy!!

One thing I would also like to mention is just because you will be training at a high intensity level doesn't mean you can slack on your clean eating.

Eating bad will not bring you good results no matter how hard you train.

Not my story, but I thought I would share about my sister-in-law. She started going to kickboxing 4x a week in February or March, and she has leaned out considerably! She says she hasn't lost much weight, but her body looks completely different. Her arms are ripped and she is even starting to see a six pack poking through. Her results have been so great, I have looked into going, but classes are so expensive around here!

4 times a week is damn intensive. Pretty hardcore. I'd expect anyone doing over 6 months of that to be totally transformed yes. Bet she totally kicks *kitten* now

I lost about 20 pounds doing Turbo Jam at home, and I miss it! I also did an army combatives class in college, and wish they could have let civilians go above level 1! I got my *kitten* kicked a lot as the only girl in class, but I learned a lot an was in much better shape at the end! Some day when I settle down from traveling for work, I want to join an MMA gym!

Good luck!
