Marshal art for fitness?

[cafwinjacks]

Hi

Just wondering if anyone does a martial art for fitness/weight loss? I've been doing cardio kick boxing for a few weeks and I'm thinking of taking Muay Thai up properly.
Thanks

I did kickboxing a few years ago for about three years. Absolutely amazing for fitness.

Thank you. Waiting for my next Monday off to go try it out

Kickboxing is brilliant, a real full body work out, will seriously tone your stomach too

Sport karate is also good and Muay Thai

My OH does Muay Thai so going to try that in when next off. Very excited

Did my first muay Thai class last night. It was brill. I ache in places I wouldn't expect. Highly recommend

Muay Thai is a brilliant workout, they are some of the fittest and strongest fighters in the world!

Brilliant self defence too

I'm going to start a Ju Jitsu class soon (proper Japanese).

My OH's mate does Brazilian ju jitsu. It was him that got oh in to muay Thai which in turn got me hooked
Good luck and have fun.

I dunno if I'll ever end up going kickboxing - I'm too shy/a bit anxious to go on my own and my boyfriend doesn't really like kickboxing, much prefers Jiu Jitsu. I don't think he really likes MMA to be honest.

Re: Martial art for fitness?

I started doing a ladies only cardio kickboxing class which really helped me build my confidence. It was always the thought of being paired up with men that put me off although I am improving now

I do Choi Kwang Do (google it, no one has ever heard of it!) And am absolutely loving it! Started off doing a couple of hours a week and now train 4-6 hours every week! I have dabbled in a few martial arts before (kickboxing, ju jitsu and some Chinese one that I am sure the owner just chucked together and just seemed to involve picking up bruises) and Choi is by far the best I have trained in, just makes so much sense!

I have lost nearly 100lb this year and gone from size 26 to size 16 thanks to diet and Choi!
