Gray Glove / Pink Glove Boxing is a non-contact, boxing-inspired fitness program tailored to fight a diverse range of neuromuscular and autoimmune disease symptoms. Designed and taught by a clinical exercise physiologist, neuromuscular physiologist, and boxing instructor with over 30 years of experience. Gray Glove / Pink Glove Boxing focuses on improving balance, mobility, flexibility, and hand-eye coordination, bone health, and cardiovascular and muscular fitness. As well as improving specific challenges like stiffness, tremor, voice projection, and gait. The program emphasizes camaraderie, support, and social connection. Gray Glove / Pink Glove Boxing program emphasizes camaraderie, support, and social connection, which are crucial for those with movement disorders. Training in a group reduces isolation and provides a supportive "family" environment of peers facing similar challenges. As well as improved mood and boosts confidence. Classes involve boxing-related movements (punching bags) as well as stretching and strength training exercises. 

A standard session lasts between 45 and 60 minutes and follows a high-intensity, non-contact circuit format. The general breakdown of a class is:

Dynamic Warm-Up: Prepares the body for movement and specifically addresses muscle rigidity.

Core & Balance Training: Exercises like "up and downs" and standing drills to improve posture and reduce fall risk.

Boxing Drills: Using heavy bags and focus mitts to target hand-eye coordination, speed, and reaction time.

Vocal Activation: Loud vocalizations are encouraged during drills to combat the soft voice symptoms common to many diseases.

Cognitive Tasks: Many drills incorporate "brain-training" exercises to challenge focus and mental multitasking.

Cool-Down: Ends with stretching to improve flexibility and reduce stiffness.

Requirements: Boxing gloves
