Your posts are helping. I've refrained from commenting on everything I've read here, but let me just say you're really engaging, and quite helpful. Right on.

For now it's just a fun addition to my normal workouts but if my time commitments in the future change, it's definitely something I'd consider doing on a more serious basis.

It's so unusual to hear from another woman with some boxing experience (of any kind) that I wanted to be sure and say howdy. Have you considered looking for a boxing gym in your area? If you ever decide to, I'll be glad to ask my trainer if she knows reputable gyms where you live... Thanks again for dropping by! Hi, Jennifer — thanks for commenting on TGE.

I've done some training through my city sport and leisure program but they couldn't allow sparring due to legal reasons. When my husband and I first started, all the girls who would partner together would always be apologizing for hitting hard, even though we were only using target pads. I was so glad I had a boy to partner with because I learned really quickly that you don't apologize for doing it correctly! I love the ritual of putting on my wraps too! Totally gets my psyched and ready to workout! All great reasons! I’ve done some training through my city sport and leisure program but they couldn’t allow sparring due to legal reasons.
