Editorial Reviews:

The Boxer's Workout is a fitness routine for whole body conditioning, aerobic fitness and fun. It presents the non-contact workout program that boxers use to get into shape.

The Boxer's Workout starts with the basics: pre-conditioning, roadwork, when and where to train, diet, & equipment. It contains over 80 photo illustrations on warm-up, movement, shadow boxing, heavy bag, speed bag, punches, circuit, developing your own boxing style and more. It assumes no prior knowledge of boxing. The Boxer's Workout is suitable for men, women, teens and seniors.

Since its publication in 1990, the book has sold over 17,000 copies worldwide. It has grown to become the definitive guidebook for serious boxers and martial artists, and is also recognized in boxing circles as the "bible" of the burgeoning boxing-for-fitness movement. The Boxer's Workout has been excerpted in Men's Health and Men's Fitness magazines, and was featured in Men's Journal magazine and on TV's "Body By jake" fitness show.

Summary: a boxers workout
Comment: the book is great and has provided a lot of useful information for my husband

Summary: basic intro to boxing workouts
Comment: I don't understand some of the other reviewers because it does give a basic workout in order to train in boxing. Not like others where boxing is more an "aerobics" class than training. It goes over basic punches, combinations, some defense (could be better), and goes over the basic structure of how to train. Does he use his friends in pictures? yes, does he romantically describe the gyms in new york? yes, but I wish they had some where I am because I would love that type of atmosphere while working out... Bottom line, I still refer to it when I am designing a workout.

Summary: Boxing for white-collars
Comment: I had the chance to attend at some boxing lessons as side-training to my karate activity. Till this point, I've rather under-estimated this sport, even if I've always admired boxers (who on this planet didn't just love the "Rocky" movies?). But I have to admit that the physical training is intense and complete, so I recommend this kind of workout (sparring included or not) to everybody who wants to remain fit.
I've choose this book because I find myself in the same boat as the author: a white-collar who wants to stay in shape after his sporting career was over.

Summary: Must buy for boxing beginners
Comment: Gives nice clear explanations and a descent workout regiment... if you are new to boxing you NEED this along with an experienced trainer... Its also a good go to book to polish fundamentals.

Summary: Great Book!
Comment: This book lays it all out for you. How to get started, what equipment you need to buy (if any) and a step by step progression on boxing. It gives you the tools, some strategy, and of course, the "Boxer's Workout" which is great.

Five stars for this great look at boxing!
