WHY BOXING?
Why Boxing for Parkinson’s?
01
Improves Motor Skills
Boxing involves fast, repetitive movements that enhance hand-eye coordination and fine motor skills, which are often impaired in Parkinson’s.
02
Enhances Balance and Stability
Boxing drills require dynamic movement and shifting weight, which helps improve posture, stability, and reduce the risk of falls.
03
Boosts Cardiovascular Health
Parkinson’s can lead to fatigue and decreased endurance. Boxing is an intense cardio workout that strengthens the heart and improves overall stamina.
04
Promotes Neuroplasticity
The brain’s ability to form new neural connections is crucial in managing Parkinson’s symptoms. Complex movements and coordination in boxing stimulate the brain, potentially slowing symptom progression.
05
Increases Strength and Flexibility
The physical demands of boxing build muscle strength, improve joint flexibility, and help counteract the rigidity associated with Parkinson’s.
