Boxfit Classes Near Basingstoke — The Complete Guide
Boxfit Classes in Basingstoke
Boxfit is one of the most popular fitness activities in the UK — and at Basingstoke Boxing Classes, we run multiple Boxfit sessions every week.
What is Boxfit?
Boxfit is a non-contact, boxing-inspired fitness class. It takes the techniques and training methods of boxing — pad work, bag work, combinations, footwork — and combines them with HIIT-style conditioning to create one of the most effective calorie-burning workouts available.
No combat. No sparring. Just serious fitness using boxing methodology.
What Happens in a Boxfit Class?
A typical 60-minute Boxfit session at our Basingstoke gym looks like this:
- Warm-up (10 mins) — skipping, shadow boxing, light cardio
- Technique round (10 mins) — learning the boxing technique for the session
- Pad work (15 mins) — applying techniques with a partner
- Bag rounds (15 mins) — heavy bag intervals at high intensity
- Circuit conditioning (8 mins) — burpees, press-ups, mountain climbers, core work
- Cool down (5 mins) — stretching and breathing
How Many Calories Does Boxfit Burn?
A 60-minute Boxfit session burns between 600 and 900 calories depending on your weight and intensity. For comparison:
- Running (60 mins): 400–600 calories
- Cycling (60 mins): 400–600 calories
- Boxfit: 600–900 calories
Boxfit wins on calorie burn — and it's considerably more enjoyable.
