Add Boxing as a New Sport Type

[Shant]

I think adding Boxing as a sport to track will be a very useful addition to Strava because then I could track boxing workout classes in its own category.

This is important to me because it would clearly specify what type of workout I just completed.

An example of when I need this is when I take boxing or martial arts classes.

Are there any Strava Boxing Groups we can post to ask for more votes? I think we need to hit 100 before the idea goes under consideration. 

Would also be cool to see how Pro Boxers/MMA/UFC athletes are training (bag work, jump ropes, road work)

[KlimEnN]

Totally agreed. I need it so much

I would love this feature! And was surprised it wasn't already listed.

boxing or at least martial arts in general would be a fantastic addition to the selection.

A subcategory workout + sparring/fight (similar to running) would also make sense but I‘ll be more than happy to be able to select it 😀

Good idea!!, thanks.

Hi all!

I added a Martial Arts Club on Strava. I invite you to join and would love to see how many people are already tracking their training on Strava. Hopefully, we will get martial arts in the future!

Shocked that boxing doesn’t exist as an activity type in Strava. I’ve been looking everywhere for it. Instead I’ve had to manually edit my workout title after I completed it every time to say “Boxing” which sucks.

@dylan same man

Please ! Boxing !

I go to the boxing gym every day and am always sad that I have to record my workout as "functional fitness"

[Shant]

Does anyone track how many punches they threw and the types of punches? 

[Pratt]

I agree, this is one of the most popular activity and essential addition to the main activity tracker. One of the best and most versatile workout, so tracking is important

@Pratt 100% we need to get all the olympic level sports on here

Hi - I agree with above. I mix rowing, boxing, kettle bells, cycling etc and my new Suunto watch has this sport type so I am using it. Thanks

@PODmeister does Suunto separate kettlebells into their own sport type or is it grouped under weightlifting? Kettlebells are great
