For me, at the end of a work out my t-shirt is an indicator for how hard I’ve trained – an intense work out is not everyone’s cuppa but I’m guessing it is what the old faces and some of the new ones enjoy about the boxing sessions at Covent Garden.

Back by popular demand is the G Force – loved by many and loathed by a few but there is no denying he knows how to get the best out of you in the gym and knows how to deliver an almighty beasting.  Graham Boylan, founder of the boxing and mma clinic is back teaching the classes at Jubilee Hall in Covent Garden.  He’s never really been away, just been busy with other stuff but as this is where it all started he thought he’d return to give it (and us) a bit of a kick up the backside.

Covent Garden is the roots of the club and the roots of the contender.  Back in the day, Graham and Ben Woods would split the class and compete as to who could deliver the biggest beasting…there was rarely much in it – although their styles are different the results were the same…utter exhaustion!

We live in a ‘use it or lose it’ world and a decision needed to be made as to whether we keep the Covent Garden classes or not.  The battle cry went out, the troops amassed and the numbers have doubled in a matter of weeks.  I’ve been attending the Thursday night classes – if only I could I take Fridays off!

Last Thursday’s session was fun, exhausting, fast, dynamic and did I mention exhausting.  I won’t scare you by outlining the warm up but the pad work was a lot of fun.  Throughout the session we built on combinations and the beauty of Covent Garden is the space.  This combination was all about making use of the space and I can only describe it as trying to sprint 100m whilst punching the pads…and for the pad holder, sprinting backwards whilst holding the pads!  Yeah I’m sure that it looked just as fun as it actually felt.  As with all the sessions at The Clinic, they’re about preparing you to take the discipline further if you want to.  This was about moving your opponent around the ring, getting them up against the ropes and then finishing them off…nice!

No time for patting yourself on the back if you got it right – before the change over of pads there was a matter of burpees, tuck jumps, press ups etc…  Anyone who knows Graham will know exactly what I’m talking about.  It was a brutal session but by all accounts Tuesday’s was worse…or is that better?  Dolly Clew and Tony Jeffs were both still struggling to walk after their session earlier that week – the fact they came back for more says something…they’re bonkers or that the classes are good.

So back to 50 Shades of Gra’…well if you attend the classes you will know that there is only one colour of one shade after a training session with Graham Boylan and that is RED, very RED!
