As some may already know, I took up boxing about this time last year, albeit not to have bouts etc, just for fitness.
I usually get mocked at work about it and even had my partners family make joke of it. I know that to look at me you would think boxing is the last thing I would do, but I really enjoy it.
I started off training with the younger boxers but felt a lil out of place so asked if the club would consider doing a womens class, which was quite successful to begin with but I soon got fed up of other women fussing over their nails, hair, make up and the constant winging, so I decided to join the mens class which is brilliant
But after a comment made by my Boss about I shouldn't be allowed to do it because i am female I thought this would make quite an interesting topic to discuss.
Everyone is entitled to their opinion, and regardless of what others may think I will continue to box because after joining a gym, circuit training & even trying boxercise this is the one thing I enjoy and actually getting quite good at (I have a mean left hook so I am told, tehe)
