Boxing Stretching Routine
Before Training (Dynamic Stretches – to warm up muscles)

Do each for about 20–30 seconds:
Arm Circles – Big forward and backward circles to loosen shoulders.
Torso Twists – Rotate your upper body side to side to warm up your core and spine.
Hip Rotations – Place your hands on your hips and draw circles to loosen hip joints.
Leg Swings – Hold onto a wall and swing one leg forward and back, then side to side.
Neck Rolls (gentle) – Slowly roll your neck side to side to release stiffness.
👉 These movements prepare your body for punching, slipping, and footwork.
After Training (Static Stretches – To cool down & recover)

Hold each for 20–40 seconds and breathe deeply:
Chest Stretch – Stand in a doorway, place your hands on the frame, and lean forward to open up tight chest and shoulders.
Shoulder Stretch – Pull one arm across your chest, then switch sides.
Triceps Stretch – Raise one arm overhead, bend the elbow, and gently push it with your other hand.
Hamstring Stretch – Sit on the floor, reach toward your toes with legs straight.
Quad Stretch – Stand on one leg, pull the other foot toward your glutes, keeping knees close.
Hip Flexor Stretch – Step one foot forward into a lunge, drop the back knee, and push hips gently forward.
Calf Stretch – Place hands against a wall, step one foot back, and push your heel into the ground.
Tips for Success

Warm up before you stretch (a few minutes of jump rope or light shadowboxing).
Don’t rush—stretching is about control and breathing.
Stretching should feel like a gentle pull, never sharp pain.
Make it a habit: 5 minutes before and 5–10 minutes after training is enough.
