Kickboxing is practiced for self-defence, general fitness, or as a contact sport. Kickboxing has roots in very traditional Japanese Martial Arts as well as Western Boxing.



How Many Calories Can You Burn in a Kickboxing Class?

This has to be one of the most popular questions people ask when they are thinking about taking up a kickboxing class. Kickboxing is an intensive sport and that means you can burn more calories doing this than you would by taking part in a variety of other less-intensive sports. But let’s get down to the nitty-gritty...



If you weigh 10 stone (140lb) and take a half-hour kickboxing class, you’re likely to burn around 321 calories. Not bad for half an hour’s work is it? If you are looking to lose some weight by taking up kickboxing, there’s good news there as well. The heavier you are the more calories you can burn. If you weigh 200lbs (a tad over 14 stone) you can burn 456 in half an hour. Those figures look even better if you take a class that lasts an hour. The 10-stone individual would lose around 642 calories in that time. In comparison, the 200lb person would lose around 912 calories!
