Boxing is all the rave with fitness buffs

Just like Sly in the latest Rocky installment, fitness buffs are turning to boxing as a fun way to shed pounds and stay active.

"White-collar," or "executive boxing" isn't about competition, but instead about burning calories, and improving core muscle strength. For Mike Camp, a mortgage broker in Indianapolis, it helps him relax after a day behind the desk. "I found it's a tremendous stress reliever," he says.

Camp has lost 110lbs since he started boxing and changed his diet.

Thinking about trying it out yourself? Remember, especially for beginners, safety is important. According to trainers, injuries don't happen often, but bloody noses and pulled muscles happen from time to time.
