I tried kickboxing last night for the first time. I have been meaning to try it for a few years now and finally went along for a free trial.
The warmup was pretty intense and ongoing, but much to my own surprise I lasted until the end of the session. Very tired afterwards, but I want to keep going back. I'll have to pay £40 a month, but that gives me full access to the centre's evening classes, which are on every night (except perhaps Tuesdays which are for the Pros). If you go twice a week then I feel it pays for itself.
I know how important it is to keep my guard up etc. and I know about the concussive risks if you aren't careful. I do not intend to compete, just to use it to keep fit. I also swim once a week (most weekends) so that should also help.
So, any advice?
