The Strong Island Fitness boxing regimen will be based on level of experience. For the novice, training will be taught the fundamentals: learning how to hit the heavy bag, or speed bag, as well as shadowboxing, jumping rope and jogging, leading to occasional sparring (practice bouts inside the ring. For the amateur or professional boxer preparing for a competition or bout, however, training becomes more intense and structured. It will incorporates a diet regimen, weight and strength training sessions and plyometrics (exercises designed to help muscles reach peak force in the least time - this includes upper-body plyometrics: medicine ball throws and lower-body plyometrics: squat jumps); however, Strong Island Fitness trainers are careful to avoid over-taxing boxers as they prepare for fights and strategically incorporate rest periods between the extreme workouts.
