One of the many ways I love to stay in shape is from weekly kick boxing sessions with Richard Ronat. Thanks to his demanding, but fun training I have toned arms, firm thighs and sculpted abs. Richard is an expert in Judo, Muay Thai, Shaolin Kung Fu, Gracie Jiu Jitsu and kickboxing. Below Richard speaks about the many benefits that kickboxing can add to any wife’s fitness routine. – Taryn Cox for THE WIFE.
Martial arts, especially kickboxing is an excellent workout for many reasons. One being, it is a full body workout which gets your heart pumping, opens up your lungs and builds muscle. It’s a great way to lose weight because you’re moving everything all at once. Plus, it makes the workout much more fun than doing some mundane treadmill marathon that only ends up feeling repetitive and boring. Kickboxing workouts are always different each session because of all the different combinations of movement. Once you learn the basic punches and kicks then it becomes more fun because you can do more. So, you’re not focused on doing a workout, you’re focused on the technique. Therefore, you get to learn a skill while getting a great workout.
For a lot of people it’s also a great way to vent or express rage. I have a lot of folks hitting my pads as if they’re picturing their worst enemy in front of them. Which I think is a very healthy way of expressing anger. It’s better than keeping it bottled up inside and flipping out on the person when they’re with them right? A good Kickboxing workout can literally change someones metabolism. It’s like training your body to do a constant sprint. I’m not saying it’s not hard and we all have days that are gonna feel tougher than others. But, when it’s all said and done, you get out what you put in and a kickboxing workout is more than worth it. –Richard Ronat for THE WIFE
