Thinking of starting boxing once i get off shift work.

I've been to the gym before but i wanna try something different.

I've tried searching on google, but all it comes up with are places that are in the city, or Fitness First.

Does anyone know of a good place to go and train?

I don't have ambitions to become an amateur/professional boxer.

I want to do it to keep in shape and look after myself.

Cheers

I see you live in Carlingford. There's a boxing club in Baulkham Hills i used to go to:

Castle Hill Boxing Club, Unit 9, Masonic Schools, Seven Hills Rd. Baulkham Hills, Ph: (02) 9634 5517

Thanks for that mate.

I'll give them a call and c how it goes

As for Cronulla...NAH, i'll leave that to the...erm.,..whatever

All You Need Is Punching Shit Bruz... :)

Punchin is for poofs. Kicking is where its at. I really should start Tae Kwon Do again... :D

Though come to think of it... where is this "Maquarie Kickboxing" located Liz? Kickboxing has always intrigued me, probably because I always think of it as Tae Kwon Do on ROIDS... :)

There is a boxing centre in Kernel that my mate runs. PM me for the details.

Same thing happened to me when i googled ninjutsu, three in the city. I found 1 in canturbury though which is a little closer. Ilike ninjutsu much better than boxing. PM me for contact details if interested.

Having done boxing and some other forms of martial arts, i'd have to say the best i've done, and still do is Krav Maga. The weakness with those other forms of fighting is that they are bound by rules. Also there is no zen, enter the dragon bullshit in Krav Maga.

Krav is raw, use what you've got, fight as dirty as you need to, hits to the balls, hammer punched to the back of the neck.... et al, to win and get out.

Even if you never need to throw a punch in a threatened state, it's an awesome weekly cardio workout.

see my sig for a better explanation of Krav Maga

    • My stuff is all with Shannon's, granted, I don't really have imports I'm driving on the road, however, I've had multiple cars at the same time with them. Presently we have the Landcruiser on laid up cover, Sarah's Kluger on full cover, and the house insured. About 18 months ago Sarah wrote her Subaru Liberty GTB off, insured with Shannon's, and the payout, and buy back of the wreck was super quick. In 2020 we had the VF Commodore totalled in a major hailstorm. Storm was on the Saturday, I called on the Sunday and lodged it, vehicle was towed on Tuesday night, assessment team called on Wednesday to say it was a total loss and get payout details, money was in the bank on Thursday morning. Have had a few other claims both at fault, and not at fault, over the years, and never had an issue with them.   Funnily enough, they're also the cheapest insurer I find for things like Sarah's Kluger.   I will say I'm less impressed dealing with them lately around "the experience", as a lot of their staff that you deal with aren't car enthusiasts. Shannon's has a much more main stream feel ever since they decided to become "big corporate", laid a heap of staff off, and then hired a bunch of non enthusiasts. At the same time they've been making a push to be less "call us and we'll personally have someone who cares help" to "hey, this computer can do stuff for you" and are trying to get more square pegs to fit round holes. (That's just the vibe I get from them). Again, have had no issues with claims with them, but get a bit of a "less personal" feel from them.
    • A thing I wasn’t happy with with enthusiast was during the initial phone call they told me they’d insure it for 130k but needed photos.   I then sent them photos and they told me $80k as there were other cars either similar modifications available for around that price, I told them to send me the links to said cars so that I can buy them. i then sent the modification list with prices of the parts (no labor) and the price then came to 115k, which is still shy of the 130 that was agreed in the initial phone call 
    • Ask me a bit later this week before payday
    • I agree that delayed payment probably isn't the most suitable solution. It seems a solid complete transaction would be best. As I wouldn't be using this sale as a line of credit that would typically earn interest, we can probably arrange a much cleaner single transaction deal. I can do $92.52 today. Would you prefer EFT, or Cash on Pickup?  😛
    • Oh man what a deal.... Funny enough (well not really) I sold a car to some old dude (buying for his Daughter) on a Saturday, He asked if she could take the car now and pay me the money on Monday as the bank wasn't open. Needless to say I told them to come back with the cash or get f**ked! Luckily the money seemed to magically appear in his pocket a few minutes later, so it all ended well (for me).
