Rock Boxing Gym — Attraction in Salinas

My first experience with RBG was 5 years ago when I decided to try my hand at amateur boxing. Honestly, I randomly selected RBG but it was the best decision I could have made. To make a long story short, I weighed in at 190 pounds the first day and after a 2 month training camp I weighed in at a solid 150 pounds. The regime that I was put through was impressive. Daily workouts Monday through Friday which eventually culminated in sparring in preparation to fight (along with a very strict diet as directed by coach). As I look back at it, coach Danny had it all very carefully planned out which in a sport like boxing gives me so much respect for him. As I trained over the course of those months, I observed that this was not only a gym but a cornerstone of the community, particularly when it comes to working with the youth. This gave me a sense of comfort and satisfaction knowing that I was actually involved in something that was greater than myself. All in all, it was a transformational experience and I will never forget it. As things turned out my wife pumped the breaks on any hope of advancing into the amateur ranks (I keep forgetting that I am over 50 years old now, heheheheh) which was my dream at the time and I simply stepped away from the scene altogether. Fast forward 5 years and I still felt that itch for the intensity of the workouts and attempted to recreate them at local gyms and working out on my own. Consequently, one of my students at CSUMB (where I teach) had trained at RBG and I took that as a good omen and started stopping by once in a while for boxing events and in doing so discovered that RBG had begun 4:30am conditioning classes and I decided to get back in the groove. Although I am not boxing, I have discovered that, hands down, it is one of the best and safest workouts I have ever experienced (especially being over 50 I have not had 1 injury since starting up again) which is a lot more that you can say for other physical activities. Since starting back up again, I feel really good and count my blessings for having discovered such a gem of an institution. If you are serious and committed about your health and state of mind, I can recommend no better establishment. Both coach Fish and Danny are the consummate professionals and will support you in realizing your fitness goals and I wholeheartedly...

I've been training at Rock Boxing for two months now. I have trained at some of the best combat sports gyms over the last fifteen years, from all over the United States, Japan, Singapore, and Thailand. My primary sport is Muay Thai. I recognize a great gym immediately and Rock Boxing is on this level. Danny is not only an excellent lead coach, but also a great friend to have. His dedication to his fighters is very inspiring, as you can easily see that he's very passionate about raising the next generation of professionals. Coach Fish is heavily involved with strength and conditioning classes and has personally raised nationally ranked fighters. He has an awesome and uplifting personality. Coach Jesus has personally taken time to help me adapt my Muay Thai style towards authentic boxing methodology. His dedication to strict form and technique makes him stand out in coaching style. This gym is for serious athletes who want to pursue boxing on a dedicated level. However, there are many classes available for those who simply enjoy the fitness aspect of the sport. Either way, you will learn how to really defend yourself, unlike fitness classes at "cardio boxing" gyms. The atmosphere is very tight and family oriented. Rock Boxing takes pride in being an authentic boxing gym and I genuinely recommend them to anyone who seeks self mastery through...

I have been going to Rock Boxing Gym for 2 months. The Coaches are really great, Coach Danny, Coach Garfield and Coach Bee. I am 67 with physical limitations. They modify my workouts for me. I love it. I had to step up my workouts so I thought I would give the gym a try. Sooo worth it. I am becoming stronger and the exercises are giving me more mobility in my knees. I find myself with more energy and focus throughout the day. The hours they have give everyone a chance to workout. I love the friendliness of everyone there. Woman are taking their health and safety serious. The children classes is so nice to watch they learn so much. The after Covid movement and exercise is so healthy for everyone especially the youth. The men going there have a chance to reach their dreams of a healthier body or if they want to become a professional fighter it's there. They give you five free sessions to try it out to see if it's a fit for you. I recommend Rock Boxing Gym if you or a love one is looking for a more one on one or classes you have coaches that works with you as an individual. Hey give it a try there is no age or limitations at Rock Boxing hope to see you there. I am the only that loves to dance while my coach says rest 😊 For an old gal I am doing...
