Boxing Workout
10-Minute Boxing HIIT for Beginners
Boxing for absolute beginners — 10 minutes of simple combinations at a manageable pace. Four rounds alternating between jab-cross combinations and hooks, with 30 seconds of work and 15 seconds of rest. The shorter work periods and limited technique selection let you focus on form rather than survival. Includes a brief warm-up and cool-down. This is your introduction to boxing-style fitness training. You'll learn the two most fundamental combinations in boxing while getting your heart rate up. No bag needed — shadow boxing is actually better for beginners since it lets you focus entirely on technique without the feedback of impact. Pair this with the 2-minute round timer as you progress.

MMA 5-Minute Round Timer
Five rounds of 5 minutes each with 1 minute rest — the official MMA championship format. Whether you're training for competition or just want to test your conditioning against the toughest round timer in combat sports, this is it. Five minutes feels like an eternity when you're throwing strikes, grappling, or doing pad work at intensity. Use this for any MMA training modality: striking rounds, grappling rounds, mixed rounds, or conditioning circuits. The 1-minute rest between rounds simulates the actual break in competition. Twenty-five minutes of total training time. This is advanced territory — make sure your base conditioning is solid before attempting full 5-minute rounds.
Muay Thai Round Timer 5 Rounds
Five rounds of Muay Thai training with 3-minute rounds and 2-minute rest periods. Muay Thai — the Art of Eight Limbs — uses punches, kicks, knees, and elbows, making each round more physically demanding than boxing alone. The extended 2-minute rest between rounds reflects the higher energy expenditure and allows for genuine recovery. Use each round to work through Muay Thai combinations: round kicks, teep (push kicks), knee strikes from the clinch, and elbow techniques. Twenty-five minutes total. Intermediate difficulty — you should have basic familiarity with Muay Thai strikes before using this timer. Works for bag work, pad work, or shadow training.
Kickboxing Combo Workout 20 Minutes
A kickboxing combination workout that takes you through the fundamental strikes over 20 minutes. Five rounds of four exercises: jab-cross combinations, hooks, front kicks, and knee strikes — 40 seconds of work with 20 seconds of rest for each. The structure lets you focus on one technique per interval, building speed and power within each movement pattern before moving to the next. Includes warm-up and cool-down. Kickboxing burns more calories per minute than almost any other workout because it engages both upper and lower body simultaneously. No bag required — this works perfectly as a shadow kickboxing session. Just make sure you have enough space to extend your kicks.
