- Enhanced agility and coordination skills through footwork drills and practicing boxing techniques.
- Strengthened muscles, particularly in the upper body, by punching a heavy bag or target pads.
- Developed hand-eye coordination and reflexes by dodging and blocking punches from a partner or coach.
- Science:
- Understanding of the principles of force and motion through the application of Newton's laws during punches and movements.

Tips for continued development: By incorporating circuit training into boxing sessions, students can further develop their strength, endurance, and overall fitness. Additionally, introducing different styles of boxing, such as power punches or defensive techniques, can expand their knowledge and skills in the sport. Encouraging students to study the science behind boxing, including biomechanics and nutrition, can deepen their understanding of the sport and its impact on the body.
