How Many Calories Does Boxing Burn?
"Boxing is arguably the most physiologically demanding sport. It requires maximal anaerobic output during combinations, punctuated by aerobic recovery moving around the ring."
A 60-minute boxing session can burn over 800 calories. The combination of rotational power, high-cadence footwork, and isometric core engagement creates a unique metabolic stress that continues to burn fat long after you hang up the gloves.
Hybrid Conditioning
Boxing utilizes both the phosphagen and oxidative energy systems. This duality means you build explosive power while simultaneously improving long-term endurance.
The EPOC Advantage
The intense nature of sparring and bag work creates an oxygen debt. Your body works harder post-session to recover, leading to a significant increase in 24-hour calorie burn.
