Why boxing works

A complete approach to fitness

Cardio, strength, flexibility and diet — boxing at Vintage covers all four pillars of your health.

  • Cardio

    Boxing is a killer cardio workout! Repetitive movements at a high intensity with a coach there to keep your form right is key to success in this aspect of your health.

  • Strength & Conditioning

    Our Full-Body Workout classes are perfect for making sure that no muscle group gets left behind!

  • Flexibility & Rest

    Our classes feature cool-down periods to ensure your body is taken care of when leaving the gym. You can't work hard without proper rest!

  • Diet

    With so many pros coming in and out of the gym, it's no problem talking to them and our members for advice on healthy habits!

  • “I walked into this gym about 7-8 months ago at 250lbs, never been in a fight before, 0 boxing experience. In 7 months I've lost 50lbs, made an entirely new friend group, gained a level of athleticism I didn't even have when playing football. Vintage Boxing can, and will, change your life if you let it.”
