Happy birthday to a great former heavyweight boxer!

This international mental health day we do not only want to focus on the positiv effects boxing has for our bodies, but also on its benefits for our mental well being. 💚

Studies have shown that any form of physical activity may improve your mental state.

These are some of the benefits related specifically to boxing:

Anxiety 👉 The level of focus required in Boxing helps to tune out thoughts causing anxiety. The concentration aspect of Boxing gives your mind a chance to focus and relax.
Depression 👉 The endorphins released during Boxing make you feel good and lift your mental attitude.
Anger 👉 If anger does not have an outlet, it can build up in your mind and contribute to stress. Punching a punching bag is an ideal method to dispel your anger and frustration, which gives your emotions and your mind the release it needs.
Motivation 👉 An activity such as Boxing that motivates you to improve can positively affect your overall outlook on life.
Confidence 👉 As your skills in Boxing improve, it will build your self-confidence as you feel more confident in defending yourself and competing against an opponent.
Achievement 👉 The physical aspect of Boxing will give you a sense of achievement as you improve in technique and as you see your body improve from the physical workout.

You can find more about the positive effects of boxing on your mental health on platforms like Google Scholar or PubMed. E.g. "Boxing as an Intervention in Mental Health: A Scoping Review" and "A Study on the Perceived Positive Coaching Leadership, Sports Enthusiasm, and Happiness of Boxing Athletes"

As you would consult your coach for advise on improving your boxing skills, don't hesitate to reach out to professionals if you need help and support with you mental health. 🙌

Canelo earned $65 million on this last bout against GGG. If we take into account the 130 punches the Mexican connected, then Alvarez earned an average of $500,000 for each time he hit Golovkin. Not bad...
