Knock Yourself Out
Shape Singapore|September 2017

ZARELDA MARIE GOH learns that boxing is one kickass workout, thanks to the fancy footwork and serious punches.

Knock Yourself Out

You may think that boxing is a man’s sport. after all, the greatest professional fighters in the world are men – the late Muhammad Ali, Manny Pacquiao, Floyd may weather... the list goes on.

But the sport has also been growing in popularity among celebrities and models. Kim Kardashian, Gigi hadid, and adriana Lima are just a handful who swear that boxing is a fantastic way to stay in shape.

Curious about its effectiveness as a workout, i jumped at the chance to check out a recently launched all-female boxing class at Juggernaut Fight Club.

What’s unique is that the class is conducted by Singapore’s first professional woman boxer Nurshahidah roslie. She trains at Juggernaut herself, and her biggest achievement to date is snagging the 2016 Universal boxing Organisation intercontinental super featherweight title.

In fact, Nurshahidah initiated starting the all-female boxing class because she wants to “encourage more women to learn boxing and show that it isn’t just a sport for men”. this class focuses on boxing for fitness, without the sparring component.
