5 New Year’s Resolutions Boxers Should Consider

Happy New Year from the Bil Sha Boxing Club team!

We hope your 2026 is off to a smashing start. In fact, the start of a new year is the perfect time to set fresh goals, and for those who love boxing or fitness in general, there are plenty of ways to make 2026 your best year yet.

Whether you are a seasoned fighter or someone who enjoys boxing for fitness or socialising, these five New Year’s resolutions are designed to keep you motivated, challenged, and connected.

Oh, and don’t forget! There are two Bil Sha Boxing Club offers available this January. Get the codes at the bottom of the blog to save while you train.

1. Attend More Social Sessions

Most people think boxing is just about the punches, but, really, community is a huge piece of the puzzle.

In 2026, make it a goal to attend more social sessions at your local gym or club. These sessions are a great way to meet like-minded people, improve your technique, and have fun.

If you normally stick to solo workouts, try signing up for one group session a week. You’ll not only get fitter but also enjoy the motivational energy of a class.

The sessions at Bil Sha Boxing Club are always a hub of social energy. Perfect if you want to combine working up a sweat with casual chats and making like-minded friends.

2. Focus on General Fitness

Even if boxing is your main sport, a well-rounded fitness routine that tackles different areas can make a huge difference.

This year, try to incorporate cardio, strength training, and mobility exercises into your weekly schedule. You might even want to try personal training for one-on-one advice.

Why not start training your strength in 2026? Strength training is great for a variety of benefits, from building your muscles to improving your balance and mobility. It even leads to an improved mood and cognitive function!

Our Head Coach Costa holds strength sessions every Monday at 7:30. Contact the club now to find out more.

Better overall fitness will make your punches sharper, your footwork quicker, and your recovery faster. Plus, mixing things up keeps training interesting and prevents burnout.

3. Try Something New in the Ring

Think you know it all? Think again. Challenge yourself by learning a new technique or boxing style this year.

Whether it is improving your defensive skills or experimenting with complex footwork, pushing your limits will keep boxing exciting.

Our team is always happy to help you set achievable goals and track your progress throughout the year.

4. Prioritise Recovery

In 2026, it’s time to hit new highs. But you can’t reach your peak without giving your body and mind time to relax.

Many boxers underestimate the importance of recovery. But you can’t fight if your muscles are sore or your mind is stressed.

Commit to getting enough rest, stretching after sessions, knowing when to slow down, and paying attention to nutrition this year. A healthy recovery routine reduces injuries and keeps you consistent so that you can enjoy your training all year long.

5. Set a Coach Goal

Working with a coach can take your boxing to the next level.

Even if you are mainly a fitness boxer, booking a session or two with a coach can provide personalised tips, correct form, and give you a clear path to improvement — and better fitness!

The start of the year is a great time to set this goal, as it sets the tone for the rest of the year.

For 2026, the BSBC is offering Off-Peak PT sessions with Coach Marc at a reduced price of £45. These are available Wednesdays and Fridays between 1 pm and 3 pm, and can be booked directly via the app.

Get the app for iOS devices here or for Android here.
