I do boxercise at my uni. Basically we train the same as a boxing club just without contact. Focus mitt training, heavy bags, shadow boxing, general fitness circuits, skipping etc etc. The guy who teachers it is an ex boxer and has done alot of kick boxing so he knows his stuff. He also runs the door at the union so he knows what its like to hit someone for real! But, and its a big but, I don't think most boxercise places are like this! There was a boxercise class in my local gym which involved punching air whilst walking forwards and backwards in a straight line. Even the instucter punched with his elbow out Also my instucter said that when he went and got his Boxercise trainer certificate most of the other people on the two day course could even throw a hook properly!
