This boxing workout at home without equipment will be four three-minute rounds with a one-minute break after each round to reset. Each round consists of different punch combinations. You'll start with a 2-minute warm-up and end with a 3-minute cool down. Let's get started!

Warm-Up

It’s time to start the workout--the first thing is the warm-up. The warm-up is 2 minutes long and consists of 4 exercises performed for 30 seconds each. You will start with 30 seconds of torso twists followed by torso twists with a cross. Then, you will jump rope for 30 seconds, and finally finish off with 30 seconds of point to the stars.

Torso Twists (30 Seconds)

Start with your feet shoulder-width apart and your arms raised to about chest height. Make sure your elbows are bent and facing out. Your fingertips should almost be touching. Now pivot the ball of your right foot in so it’s facing your left foot. Twist your body to the left to where you are almost looking over your left shoulder. Alternate to the other side.

Torso Twist with a Cross Punch (30 Seconds)

This move starts with the torso twist, but when you twist, extend the opposite arm from the side you are twisting across your body into a cross punch. Alternate between sides.

Jump Rope (30 Seconds)

Pretend you have a jump rope in your hands and circle your wrists. Lightly jump up and down like you are jumping rope.

Point to the Stars (30 Seconds)

Do a torso twist where you extend your hands up and (you guessed it) point towards the stars.

Round 1

Punch goal: 200

This 3-minute round consists of three different punch combinations starting with 6 quick punch combos alternating between a jab and a cross for 30 seconds. Follow up with a double jab cross for 30 seconds, and finish with a jab-cross-step-rear hook combo for 30 seconds. After you finish the third combination, go back to your first combination of the 6 quick punches and continue back down the list of the combinations alternating each combo after 30 seconds until the 3-minute time is up.

Punch Combo: Jab-Cross-Jab-Cross-Jab-Cross | 1-2-1-2-1-2 (30 Seconds)

Start by extending your front arm out in front of you into a jab, and follow up with a cross with your other arm. You want to do three jab crosses and then reset after your third cross.

Punch Combo: Jab-Jab-Cross | 1-1-2 (30 Seconds)

In a boxer's stance with your dominant hand in front of your face and your back hand up guarding your face, punch your front arm out into a jab and follow up with another jab. Extend your back hand that’s guarding your face into a cross.
Add in some footwork by stepping forward during your jabs and stepping back when you finish the cross.

Punch Combo: Jab-Cross-Step to the Rear-Rear Hook | 1-2-Step to the Rear-4 (30 Seconds)

This combo starts with the basic jab-cross and then stepping to your back side and throwing a rear hook. Repeat for 30 seconds.

The fourth combination is 4 punches alternating between a jab and a cross, then 2 jumping jacks for a total of 1 minute. The last move in this combo is a jab-cross hook combination, alternating between a lead hook and a rear hook. After your rear hook, follow up with a squat and continue this combination for 30 seconds.

Finish your punch combination off by stepping your back leg into where your feet are shoulder-width apart. Bend your knees and push your glutes back like you are trying to sit on a bench. Keep your weight in your heels. Come back up and squeeze your glutes at the top. After your squat, reset and get back into your stance to repeat this combination for 30 seconds. After 30 seconds start back at the top with the first combination in this round and go back through the combinations until the 3 minutes are up.

Congratulations you are halfway done with the workout. Now take a 60-second break to towel off, get some water, and prepare for round 3.
