Boxing has become one of the most effective methods of cardiovascular personal training. Aimed directly at weight loss and fat reduction, boxing is a great workout for the entire body, including range of motion and core strengthening.

Not only does sparring with a partner or trainer raise your heart rate for quick bursts of time (the most effective method of burning fat), but it also works almost the entire range of muscles in your body.


Forcing you to squat from a low to high position with proper form and a correct defense, boxing works the legs and bum almost as one. In addition, the twisting and turning work your core and abdominal muscles. The tightening and toning of the arms and chest come from the actual jab and cutting motion.

Boxing works almost every muscle in your body, helping to define and tone your shape quickly and effectively.

A boxer is the best conditioned athlete in the world bar none. Boxing, whether for competition or solely for recreational purposes provides the most rounded and well balanced workout you will ever find.

Because our workout utilizes more muscle groups than any other single motion type workout, such as cycling or jogging, it tends to result in fewer repetitive injuries or strains. In an hour of boxing a 180 pound man can burn more than 500 calories. With a solid fundamental base and a little motivation, you too can receive the full benefits and phenomenal results a good boxing program can provide, whether it is for purposes of competition, or you just want to come in and hit the bags. When fitness comes first, the rest is easy.

Boxing For Cardio Strength Muscle Groups targeted:
Boxing involves a lot of muscle groups. These are the bicep, quadriceps, hamstrings, Gastrocnemius and Soleus muscles, and Erector Spinae muscle group. In addition, boxing exercises also include the abdominal muscles, internal and external oblique muscles groups, Pectoralis muscle group, and Latissimus muscle group.

Class Description:
For persons interested in training classes, following is a beginning level class description; Start with varied warm up activities and light flexibility. Learn fundamental stance, directional footwork, and striking technique. Learn to shadowbox combining foot work, head movement, and striking technique, transferring skills to light and heavy bags for a super cardio total body conditioning workout. Further sharpen skills and increase stamina with the use of punch mitt and punch shield floor workout routines.

Highwaymen Jimmy Stovall Shares his Love for Art with Judyth Piazza

Posted on 29 March 2010 by Judyth Piazza

Judyth Piazza chats with Highwaymen, Jimmy Stovall (Click here to listen)

“The Highwaymen” is a name I’ve given to a group of black artists working on the East coast of Florida from approximately 1955 to the present. So called because their marketing and sales strategy consisted of traveling the highways and byways of central Florida peddling their paintings out of the back of their cars.

Although I’ve identified nearly twenty of these artists still living, they are, for the most part, unknown and have not received credit for their contribution to Florida’s art tradition. In fact, it was these artists who were the bare bones beginning for Florida’s resident/regional art tradition. Further, their paintings met a growing demand for regional Florida art and served to encourage what has become the Indian River school of painting, perhaps the only school or movement within the state that is recognizable as such.

The story of the Highwaymen begins with one man, now deceased, who has come to be known as the dean of Florida landscape painters, A. E. “Bean” Backus of Fort Pierce. I use the admittedly arbitrary date of 1950 as a point of beginning because that was the year Bean married Patsy Hutchinson and his career began to blossom. Unfortunately, Patsy died of complications following heart surgery in 1955. Bean’s love from then on was painting. He devoted himself to his art, the daily consumption of a quantity of rum, good conversation, and good friends.

Although Bean was a white Southerner during a time when racial equality was not yet taken seriously, he was a friend to all. This characteristic, coupled with a natural Bohemian bent, made him the perfect mentor to a group of young black men who had noted the apparent ease with which he made a living. Painting, for them, was perceived as being a way out of the fields and groves.

Most of these young men were content to learn by osmosis, by observation. Bean’s studio became a place to congregate. One seemed more eager to learn than the others. His name was Alfred Hair. To my knowledge, Alfred was the only one of this group of black men to take formal lessons from Bean and even accompanied him to the Bahamas on occasion.

Apparently Alfred had an entrepreneurial spirit because he later organized some of the others who had hung around Bean’s studio and began to “mass produce” Florida landscape paintings. They were usually done on Upsom board with whatever materials were at hand, including house paint.

It seems that Alfred employed specialists. Some were tree painters, some painted only skies, others did water. Who signed the paintings was of little concern to anyone.

Unfortunately, Alfred Hair was killed in a barroom brawl. Lacking his organizational skills, most of the others went their own ways and began to paint and sell for themselves. Not all of these artists were content to paint by formula. Some went on to develop their talents and skills and have gained respectable reputations. Some retained the highway sales technique.

A few of the more capable artists in this group are Harold Newton, now incapacitated by a stroke, George Buckner, still painting and selling near the thousand dollar range (George and his brother Ellis, now deceased, once operated a gallery in Coral Gables) and Al Black, who in my opinion most typifies the Highwaymen.

Somewhere I’ve heard it said that one sure road to success is to “find a need and fill it”. These black artists did just that. Whether we are willing to accept their work as “art” or not is an argument I won’t make. I do know that by painting for the marketplace they inadvertently created an awareness of and appreciation for Florida regional art. They deserve recognition for that contribution.
