Learn how to teach your clients basic boxing skills while igniting their metabolism!
Never before has there been a quick, easy way to learn HOW to teach basic boxing and kicking techniques to your clients in a safe and effective manner.
NOW THERE IS: CROSS-BOX TRAINING!
Cross-Box Training was developed to help trainers add a valuable skill-set to their training arsenal. In the last few years, trainers have increasingly started TRYING to integrate boxing, and kick-boxing to add more variety, fun, and cardiovascular challenge to their workouts. The problem is, MOST TRAINERS are teaching their clients INCORRECTLY! Boxing, and kick-boxing is incredible for increasing metabolic output, speed, agility, activating fast-twitch muscle fibers, enhancing peripheral vision, and improving hand-eye coordination. It can also be dangerous if not taught correctly. Here is an example:
How many times have you seen a trainer put a stinky pair of gloves on their client, and have the client start punching and, or, kicking away at a heavy bag or focus mitts…WITHOUT wrapping their hands, or even demonstrating to their clients how to PROPERLY do it.
This is incredible. The trainer is knowingly, or worse, UN-KNOWINGLY endangering the client, and becomes a LIABILITY to themselves, and the employer.
Cross-Box Training educates, and equips the trainer with the knowledge, and ability to teach and train their clients, and themselves, basic boxing and kickboxing, techniques, drills, and combinations in a safe and productive manner.
Since the emergence of the UFC, the Ultimate Fighting Championship, the fitness industry as witnessed an explosion of interest by health club members, and the general public, in the Mixed Martial Arts on a global scale. In the last decade, numerous mixed martial arts gyms have opened in cities around the world to accommodate this growing trend towards fitness. As a result, so has the interest been of personal trainers to also use the mixed martial arts when working with clients, mainly boxing, and kickboxing. This is a good thing, if the trainers have the knowledge, and skill-set to do so. But as I already mentioned, most of them do not, and that is not good, as we already established.
There is a solution! It’s Cross-Box Training, and it’s available to personal trainers, and group exercise instructors throughout the country. We hope, and encourage gym owners, and fitness managers to confront their trainers, if not qualified, that are having clients box, and kick box, to get certified through Cross-Box Training Certification (CBTC) and reduce their risk of liability. Otherwise, we encourage them to NOT allow these same trainers to continue utilizing boxing and kick boxing, period. The client’s safety should always be at the top of every trainer’s, and club owner’s list. If a trainer is allowed to continue to instruct clients on how to do something that he or she is not qualified to do, then they are doing a disservice to the client, and greatly compromise the club.
CBTC is a one-day workshop that begins by educating the candidates about the boxing and kick-boxing industry, and the connection it can have to the fitness industry. From there the candidates learn how to, wrap their hands, and their clients hands, how to properly make a fist, the proper striking surface, stances, weight distribution, biomechanics, targeting, breathing, timing, counting for their clients, how to hold focus mitts, and of course, basic boxing techniques, drills, and combinations.
At the end of the workshop, each candidate must take the Cross-Box Training Exam (CBTE), which consist of multiple choice, and true / false questions.
Upon completing the CBTC workshop, and assuming the candidates pass the course, the candidates will have the skill-set, and the confidence to use Cross-Box Training as part of their own workout, and how to incorporate it when working with their clients.
It is important to point out that Cross-Box Training IS NOT a program designed to teach personal trainers how to get in the ring and fight. It is not a program for personal trainers to teach others how to get in the ring and fight. Cross-Box Training is a program designed to teach and instruct personal trainers the basics of boxing and kick-boxing techniques, drills, and combinations as a fitness program, as a cross-training alternative to using other cross-training methods. THAT’S IT!
Cross-Box Training brings intensity to the workout. Some of the best condition athletes in the world are boxers, and kick boxers because of their training regiment, and the intensity by which they train.
The bottom-line is; one of the main reasons why people do not get the results they hope for, is because they lack intensity during their workouts. Again, Cross-Box Training brings INTENSITY to the workout.
