BOXVR boxers, warriors, and ninjas will want to warm up with shorter workouts like the ones suggested below before doing the longer, more physically intense workouts. Warming up before a longer workout relaxes the muscles, stimulates the metabolism and can also prevent injuries. These mini workouts can also be used as segments that create a larger workout.
Beginner & Intermediate
When you get to the workout selection menu, you’ll see the beginner on the left. Advanced students shouldn’t overlook this section just because it says Beginners. Beginners and Advanced BOXVR warriors These segments can be used to warm up arms or legs. Do you have pain while exercising your legs? Use these workouts to help you focus on arm day! Strapped for the time? Get a mini workout when you have the time!
Tip: Whatever you’re feeling that day, go with it. If it’s too easy for you, go around two or three times. But be wise and listen to your body so you don’t burn out too soon before the main event or the cardio and fat burning session that is waiting for you.
For a great introductory training with simplified movements, start here:
- Welcome training: 3 minutes
If you want to focus on jabbing, combos, uppercuts, and hooks to warm up your arms, use these workouts:
- Punching exercises: 2 minutes
- Beat combinations: 3 minutes
- Practice strokes: 2 minutes
Use this mini workout to get an introductory leg workout or warm up with basic leg movements:
- Duck and Dodge: 3 minutes
power
You will see the selection menu and Power is displayed on the left. Use these one-on-one sessions to increase the warmth while targeting your core and lower body. Do you want to hit a little bit but focus more on your legs because it’s core and leg day? Use these mini workouts to put your core, quads, hamstrings, and glutes into overtime.
Tip: Keep your abs and obliques tight so squats, lunges, and evasive maneuvers support your back, but also work to straighten that bowel if you have one.
Pro tip: Choose one or more of these sessions to work out your middle and lower body, or for an isolated workout for the legs and core. Don’t just crouch or step out of the way to the lunge, get the job done. If you dive in and step sideways, you won’t see any results like you would if you actually did the job. Resist half the battle. Whole ass.
