Dude, Wii boxing is rouuuuugh. Esp if you use wrist weights (so you can hold the controllers). I've been doing Jillian Michaels, Banish Fat, Boost Metabolism DVD and there is quite a large amount of punching and kickboxing - it's toning me in no time!
I liek doing the training on Wii Boxing too, it allows you to focus on specific things. The only reason I suggest finding a DVD or class is that with kickboxing I feel like i'm burning more calories and really, really whittling my waist. So I might look for a boxing based workout dvd or drop in at a local class. Tae Bo was popular for a reason ya know? ;)
I've gone back to boxing, kickboxing, tae bo, etc. a lot for a fun workout. If there's an intro class close to you, I'd try that!
I kickboxed once a week for a year until recently (weight trained/did cardio twice a week as well). I lovelovelove it. It is my favorite workout.
I agree with Dorsay. Try the Jillian DVD, it's a killer! The boxing moves are actually fun, and totally empowering. She incorporates a lot of kickboxing into the workout; it really gets you into amazing shape. Good luck :-)
I like the idea of a DVD before a class or something. Cheaper, among other benefits!
One question... Exactly how much room will I be needing for something like the Jillian DVD D'Orsay mentioned, or even for The Shred dvd?
Thanks again!
the 45 minute one (BFBM) you'll need enough space to do a squatting side kick, jumping jacks and be in a plank position. I'd say it's about the same for the shred, enough to be in a wide stance and jump around. I like the shred, but I LOVE BFBM. With the shred just as I'd be like, "yeah I rule" the workout would be over. With BFBM I'm like I've ruled it and I'm ready for a break. I don't know if that makes sense... I think I just enjoy the longer, intense workout :)
also, on Amazon, you can see little clips to get an idea of some of the workouts.

Anyone take up or try boxing in the pursuit of fitness? I know a girl from school who has killer tone in her arms, shoulders, and abs, all thanks to boxing, and this flabmuffin would like to get there.
Should I start with Wii Boxing...? :)
