All the Boxing Gear You Need to Land Every Punch and Sweat It Out in the Ring
Boxing is the hardcore, aggression-releasing workout you've been looking for. The quick, intense bursts of speed as you punch and dodge make it a natural HIIT workout. The endurance factor means you'll be drenched in sweat by the end. And you're generating core power with every movement, working your abs and obliques like nothing else.
Whether you're suiting up for your first boxing class or just looking to spruce up the equipment you already have, we searched far and wide for the most stylish, comfortable, and practical boxing gear to help you nail every move. Strap on your gloves, step in the ring, and get ready to punch it out.
