My First Pair of Boxing Gloves!!!!


And I am soooo excited to use them.  I’m not too sure what the heck I’m going to be punching on because I don’t have a punching bag, but I’m going to do something with them.

My best friend  surprised me, on my first day back to work (today), with this lovely gift!  I love gifts!  I came to work and on my desk sits this!

I immediately became ALL SMILES when I saw the word, “EVERLAST” and you know what that means???  Boxin’!  So, I threw my stuff down and went straight for the box.  I cut the box open and I was in heaven!!!!  I was given an EVERLAST WOMEN’S WORKOUT KIT.   Have a look!

The Everlast Pink Glove Kit (that’s what I like to call it) came bundled up with a pair of “Pro Style Training Gloves“, “EverGel hand wraps” (which are to be worn inside of boxing gloves), a jump rope (not sure why it’s not pink – grrrr!), a mouth guard (COOL!), a 60 minute instructional DVD called, “Tn:60 Novice Boxing Workout” (starring Michael Olajide, Jr. – *SCREAM!* – will do a separate review on this) and a cute, little pink boxing glove keychain.  I’m going to hang that little key chain on the home gym’s wall for good luck.  Ha!

My best friend knew that I wanted this kit really bad, but when I went to order it a few months ago it was gone from Costco’s website.  Apparently they brought it back while I was away from work.    Yep, she got it from Costco and what a deal it is! The gloves, alone, at any retailer (Sears and Sports Authority for example) charge $29.99 for the gloves.  This kit cost her $39.99! Plus, the items all say “Everlast will donate $.25 of the retain price of these pro training gloves to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation, dedicated to preventing breast cancer and finding a cure in our lifetime by funding clinical and genetic research worldwide.”  Awesome!  All I need now is a head guard and the pink shorts and I’m set.

I am so feeling like Rocky now! Hey, Rocky is cool!  Please don’t hate!  LOL!

    Great read. I am thinking about taking up boxing as a conditioning tool as opposed to a sport; I really need and want a stronger and more toned upper body. This just inspired me to stop contemplating and “just do it”. I hope everything is working well for you.
