Say bye to pilates and yoga: 2 unusual sports that might work best for you

We all love playing sports as this makes us healthy, happy and slim. In Hong Kong, most girls prefer doing the ‘feminine’ sports like pilates and yoga, however, there are actually some other types that are equally attractive.

 

Firstly, being easy to pick up and able to relax your soul and body, pilates and yoga are simply great, but do you agree sometimes we need a bit of vigorousness to ease stress? Girls are never weak, we can do what those men are doing – crazily jump, robustly run, powerfully lift… If you are as active as me, then I guess Boxing and Spinning should be your cup of tea. 

 

Boxing

 

Unlike pilates and yoga, which are anaerobic, boxing is approximately 80% anaerobic and 20% aerobic. But if you prefer a more aerobic one, kickboxing should be a good pick. The sport is certainly good for our health as it trains our body strength, cardiovascular function, and perseverance. It can also provide us with a healthier and stronger body figure as more muscles, like biceps, triceps and deltoids, can be developed during exercising. Don’t worry, you certainly won’t look as strong as a man, but only gorgeous and healthily sexy.

 

Whilst standing on a ring throwing punches is simply cool and exciting. Every time after finishing a boxing class, I feel reborn and easy. Yes, boxing is tiring and you usually have to sweat a lot, but training your body in a short period of time is amazing, isn’t it?

 

Spinning

 

If you are afraid that boxing would get you hurt, then let’s see spinning. 

 

It’s an excellent workout to strengthen your heart and tone your legs. Listening to funky music and ‘riding’ with a group of beauties, the spinning class is truly cool. With an uplifting melody, exercising is no more a painful experience, but a happy easy relaxing moment. It’s never boring as a section usually includes sprints, hill climbs, circuits and intervals modes. You must feel so refreshed after all!
