Getting in shape Boxing or BJJ?
Hey, guys.

There are both Boxing gym and BJJ dojo near by my house and I'm thinking about taking either one of them. I've been working for last 10 years without any phisical activity besides having lots of sex. Now I decide to take some phisical training before I look like Dick Chaney.

Which one should I take? Boxing or BJJ? any recrmendations?

If your doing it just to get back into shape, I would do boxing. If you are doing it because you are interested to learn about one, take one class of each and then decide.

Well, boxing is much more cardio oriented while BJJ is a lot more of a strength work out. DO both, hehe.

yeah as far as cardio and looks go you should go for boxing. but for strength and effectiveness in a street fight i'd give an EDGE to grappling.
