Boxfit classes
in Wisbech
Boxfit classes in Wisbech run as Adult BoxCross, Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm: all the conditioning of boxing training and none of the getting hit. Pads, bags, footwork and circuits, coached in a room with two real rings in it.
Boxing training without the boxing
On the timetable it is called Adult BoxCross. It takes the parts of a fighter’s training that make people fit, the skipping, the shadow work, the pad rounds, the bag work and the circuits, and removes the part where somebody punches you back.
It is the single best-value conditioning session on the timetable. Your heart rate stays high for an hour, you are learning coordination and rhythm the whole time, and it does not feel like exercise in the way that a rowing machine does.
People come to Boxfit for fat loss, for stress, and because it is the most enjoyable hard thing in the building. Plenty then drift into the actual boxing classes. Plenty never do, and that is completely fine.
Format
How the session runs
Rounds
The session is built in rounds, like a fight. Work, short rest, work again. That interval structure is why it burns what it burns.
Pads with a partner
You will pair up and take turns holding and hitting. Coaches rotate through correcting technique, and you get a genuine skill out of it rather than just a sweat.
Bag work
Heavy bag rounds for power and conditioning. This is where you can go as hard as you like.
Conditioning
Wall ball, sled, kettlebells, bodyweight. Scaled to whoever is in the room.
Who comes
A real mix. Complete beginners, people who have not trained in years, regulars who use it as their conditioning day, and women who want boxing without the intimidation of a fight gym. Women’s Boxing Basics on Wednesdays at 6pm is the women’s-only route in.
When
Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm, one hour, twenty places, coached by Daniel Higgs. Book in the app.
Questions
Common questions
When is boxfit in Wisbech?
Adult BoxCross runs Tuesdays and Thursdays at 7pm for one hour. Book through the BoxCross app.
Is there boxercise near me if I am outside Wisbech?
Members drive in from March, King’s Lynn, Chatteris and the villages between. Regal Road has free parking and the session is at 7pm, so most people make it straight from work.
What is the difference between boxfit and boxing classes?
Boxfit is boxing-style conditioning with no contact and no sparring: pads, bags, footwork and circuits. Boxing classes go deeper into technique and ring craft. Both are coached and both are open to beginners.
Is boxercise the same thing?
Effectively, yes. Different gyms use different names for boxing-based fitness classes. Ours is on the timetable as Adult BoxCross.
Do I need gloves?
Not to start. Gloves and wraps are available at the gym.
Is there a women’s only version?
Yes. Women’s Boxing Basics 101 runs Wednesdays at 6pm and Women’s Only Fit and Functional runs Tuesdays and Thursdays at 6pm. More here.
