What Happens in a Personal Training Session?

Boxing Skipping WarmUp | Mr Deniz Ates

1. Warm-Up

We kick off with a lively warm-up. First, it's skipping - a brilliant way to get your heart rate up and sharpen coordination. Then, we move onto dynamic stretches: think leg swings and lunges to get your muscles and joints ready. This combo of cardio and stretching sets you up perfectly for the workout ahead, both physically and mentally.

Boxing Padwork | Mr Deniz Ates

2. Padwork

The padwork starts with the basics - simple punches and combinations. Gradually, as you grow more confident, we up the intensity and complexity. You'll learn advanced techniques and faster combinations, improving your speed, power, and accuracy. It's not just about the punches; this is a full-body workout that elevates your fitness and focus.

3. Circuit Training

You may progress with padwork to peak intensity or you may choose to switch to circuit training. It's entirely up to you. If you're up for it, you'll work between various exercises using sandbags, slam balls, hand weights, and resistance bands. In shared sessions, you and your friend will alternate between padwork and circuit training, ensuring you both get a comprehensive fitness experience.

4. Cool Down

The cool down is about bringing your heart rate down gently and stretching out your muscles. We'll go through a series of static stretches and relaxation techniques, focusing on muscle recovery and flexibility. This calming end to our session helps prevent soreness and prepares you mentally and physically for what's next in your day.

What is Padwork?

Padwork is a popular training method used by boxers and other combat sports athletes to improve their punching technique, hand-eye coordination, and reaction time. It involves a trainer holding padded gloves, called pads or focus mitts, and calling out punches and combinations for the athlete to perform. The trainer moves the pads to simulate an opponent and provides feedback on the accuracy and power of punches.

But padwork isn’t just for boxers. Anyone can benefit from the cardiovascular and coordination-boosting benefits. Whether you are a seasoned athlete or just starting on your fitness journey, padwork can be a safe and a thrilling way to get fit.

During a session, you will be constantly moving and reacting to the trainer’s combinations, improving your speed and power, while burning calories and strengthening your entire body. Because it can be modified for all fitness levels, padwork is a great option for anyone looking to mix up their workout routine.

Padwork is not just a great workout for your body. It is also a fantastic way to improve your mental focus. During a session, you will be required to concentrate and react quickly to the trainer’s instructions and combinations. This intense mental engagement can be a welcome distraction from the stresses of everyday life, helping you clear your mind and find a sense of calm.

It is also a great way to relieve stress and reduce anxiety. The physical exertion and endorphin release that comes from a vigorous workout can help to improve your mood and overall well-being.

The benefits go beyond the time you spend hitting the pads. The improved coordination, speed and power can carry over into other areas of your life, helping you feel more confident and capable in everything you do.

So if you want to add some variety to your fitness routine, give padwork a try. You will be amazed at the results and the fun you will have along the way.

What padwork involves:

  • Boxing Techniques:
    Padwork allows you to practice various boxing techniques, including punches, combinations, footwork, and defensive manoeuvres.

  • Trainer Guidance:
    During padwork sessions, you receive real-time feedback from a trainer, helping you improve your technique.

  • Dynamic Training:
    Padwork involves precise movements in ever-changing scenarios, requiring quick reactions, agility, and coordination.

  • Adaptability:
    Padwork can be customized to suit different fitness levels, allowing for progression and adaptation as you advance.

  • Skill Development:
    Regular padwork sessions contribute to the development of boxing skills, helping you become a more proficient and well-rounded boxer.

The benefits of padwork:

  • Improved Strength and Power:
    Striking the pads helps build upper body, core, and lower body strength, enhancing overall muscular power.

  • Enhanced Cardiovascular Fitness:
    The high-intensity nature of padwork provides a cardiovascular workout, improving endurance and stamina.

  • Increased Speed and Accuracy:
    Padwork drills enhance hand-eye coordination, reflexes, and precision in hitting targets.

  • Stress Relief:
    Engaging in padwork allows you to release stress and tension, providing a cathartic outlet for energy.

  • Boosted Confidence:
    Progressing in padwork and witnessing improvements in technique and fitness can increase self-confidence and self-belief in your boxing abilities.

  • “Deniz is a rare find in the world of personal trainers. He’s patient. Supportive. Technical without being complicated. Every session is different. There’s never an off the shelf routine. He’s never going through the motions. He never makes you feel stupid. He has a knack of getting you to push yourself without ever becoming pushy or shouty. It’s also ridiculously good value. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him and he’s made a huge difference to my fitness.”

    Peter Fitch, Consultant

  • “Deniz is so great! He was recommended to me by a friend and I would absolutely recommend him to others. I have so much fun in our sessions and always feel like I’ve had a great workout. He is super knowledgeable about boxing, goes out of his way to make you feel comfortable but also challenges you. I always look forward to our sessions!”

    Natasha Anderson, Comedian, Actor & Writer

  • “I love training with Deniz, he’s a gentle soul with such an impressive knowledge of boxing and training in general. Sessions with him are fun but so challenging, always finishing them with a smile and a lot of calories burned! Highly recommended!”

    Judi Abbot, Children’s Books Illustrator & Author

  • “For a fun, invigorating, mentally-stimulating boxing based workout ... don't hesitate to contact Deniz. Whether you're a beginner (like me) or a seasoned boxer, he's a terrific teacher. His solid experience in personal training comes through in his focus on form & technique, and sessions are a mixture of set routines & general conditioning. Always flexible scheduling sessions, reliable and great he comes to your location ... highly recommended!”

    Sam Myers, Event Manager

  • “Though I’ve been in the boxing and martial arts scene for over 10 years, I’ve never met another coach as dedicated, curious and driven as Deniz. Not only in the ring (or let’s say during an outdoor session in the park) but this man lives and breathes boxing. His endless studies and passion for learning and teaching always impresses me and probably explains how he makes his sessions to be so much fun, insightful and challenging. Not only physically but he will challenge your mind! On top of that, Deniz is incredibly trustworthy (always on time) loyal and kind.”

    Kajza Ekberg, Contemporary Dancer & Yoga Teacher

  • “I have trained with Deniz for years, after meeting him at a boxing club he worked at. I like Deniz’s training style: encouraging, and challenging at the same time. He is calm and kind, which works well to get you to work hard when you think he is being nice to you! It made me realise I could do things I had never considered, took me out of my comfort zone and made me feel good about myself. I like the variation. Deniz puts a lot of effort into creating classes and designing punch combinations. This is really good for working your body and your mind at the same time. An enjoyable challenge! Deniz is a top bloke, and if you are interested in the technical side of boxing there is probably nothing he can’t explain!”

    Amanda Eatwell, Photographer

  • “I’ve known Deniz for many years now I first met him when he was head coach at Total Boxer in Crouch End. I’ve found his teaching techniques to be extremely effective and my fitness levels have increased immensely when I train with him regularly. He’s the most friendly coach although his training routines can be tough. He’s a stickler for good form and explains each posture/technique and exercise clearly and effectively. If you’d like to begin boxing then I would recommend Deniz very highly indeed. He’s flexible with times and places so I find it ideal and it leaves me no excuses not to train!!”

    Ray Williams, Tour Manager

  • “Deniz has trained me many times at Total Boxer, both in classes and 1-1 Personal Training sessions. In classes he effortlessly manages large groups, keeping the training moving and intense while still helping individuals with technique. In PT sessions he has an inexhaustible library of moves and combinations to pass on. He does this systematically and patiently, which is definitely a plus for a slow learner (and mover) like me :-) After classes, and especially PT sessions I genuinely feel fitter and a more capable boxer.”

    Gordon Wilkinson, Field Applications Engineer

  • “Training with Deniz is a joy! He takes the time to explain techniques and each training session is fun and an amazing work out! I had never tried boxing before: since the first session, I felt confident I could do it and very motivated. He really looks after his clients and makes sure the session is ok for them, especially if they have injuries or concerns. I look forward to my weekly training! I strongly recommend training with him!”

    Elisa Impara, Researcher & Data Analyst

  • “Always very pleasant training sessions with Deniz. Very easy to book a session with him, morning, evening or even week-end. This has allowed me to start boxing despite a demanding job. Yes, you will sweat, but always in good company. Deniz also deserves a full 5 stars for his patience.”
