codification of the rules governing boxing matches dating back to 1743, while still
current rules were established in 1889 by the Marquess of Queensberry, who among
other things introduced the use of gloves.
The boxing matches began performing unlimited rounds, then 20 rounds and then to

championships with national title game for 10 rounds and fighting untitled game or
some minor title are made 4,6,8 or 10 rounds as agreed, the fighting in the amateur
field is carried out at 4 rounds of 2 minutes (round professional bouts are three
minutes).
The Queensberry Rules
The "boxing", unlike other forms of fighting with fists, dates from 1867, when the
"comrades of John" wrote the new rules, the rules were published under the patronage
of the Marquess of Queensberry, whose name has always been associated them.
Gloves-old were twelve rules in all, and specified That fights should be "to fight fair
stand-up boxing" in a "ring" (ring) 24 feet (eight meters) side. The "rounds" (armed
robbery) must have a duration of three minutes, with one minute Between each. Ten
seconds are gra nted for up to boxer WHO has-been dropped for an assault. They

should wear gloves new "right size" and specifically prohibits "fight or embrace".
The purpose of the gloves is to protect the knuckles. Normal boxing gloves have the
appearance of a pair of puffy gloves are often red and tied around the wrists by the
inner forearm. The first fighter to win a world title under these rules was the Gentleman
Jim Corbett, who defeated John L. Sullivan in 1892 at Club Atltico "El Pelicano" New
Orleans (USA).
There was not the "amateur" sport until 1867, when the championships for lightweight,
medium and heavy amateurs under the Rules of the Marquis of Queensberry at Lillie
Bridge in London were held.
With the gradual acceptance of the rules of the Marquis of Queensberry, there have
been two distinct branches of boxing, professional and amateur, each of which has
produced its own local, national and international regulatory bodies, with their own
variations of the rules.

flyweight, bantamweight, featherweight, featherweight, super featherweight and junior

When working with a punching bag we do
is exert a force on a heavy and inert body.
This requires a force of explosion that
allows us to make this move. This is what
will make use of the punching bag a
suitable tool to work our body.
First of all we get in position and be clear
that a punching bag is a heavy body and soft, but not too over which unload blows with
different parts of our body, as there are different sports that use it to strike with hands,
and legs on its surface. This bag will absorb the impacts that we give without doing us
harm thereby. Hence its great appeal when toning your body.

When we hit any part of our body on the punching bag you do is download the blow on
this unit. To this blow we do is develop our muscles explosive force, ie, at a time when
we activate all constituent fibers to slow dry the coup against the bag and return them
to their normal condition to return to collapse them the next blow. This exercise is one
that will work the fibers and get our muscles stay tense and assets to practice this
exercise.
Aerobic Exercise
But not only the practice of exercise with a punching bag has these benefits, but also
represents a fairly complete aerobic exercise because it constantly during the duration
of the activity will not remain unemployed, as we will be moving at all times, making our
bodies work aerobically greatly speaking. Thus we will achieve greater calorie burn and
a high work of the lungs and circulatory system.

serves to encourage us, doing exercise on a punching bag help to ease tensions with
each stroke and thereby eliminate stress accumulated throughout the day. Therefore it
