“…Throughout the intervention, tolerability data indicated no adverse changes in muscle soreness, a reduction in fatigue, and improvements in sleep. The improvements in sleep align with a recent investigation that noted positive effects on sleep quality and daytime sleepiness following boxing training 22 . These findings suggest that boxing training interventions, including high‐intensity components, are well tolerated and safe for people with PD.…”

BackgroundBoxing training has become a popular form of exercise for people with Parkinson disease (PD). There is a dearth of high‐quality feasibility, safety, and efficacy data on boxing training for PD. Feasibility of Instituting Graduated High‐intensity Training (FIGHT‐PD) aimed to examine these features in a periodized boxing training program featuring high‐intensity physical and cognitive demands.ObjectiveTo conduct a feasibility study, aiming to address deficiencies in the current knowledge base and to provide data for future studies.DesignSingle‐arm, open‐label feasibility.SettingUniversity department and medical research institute.ParticipantsTen people with early stage PD without contraindications to intense exercise, identified from a database of participants interested in boxing training.InterventionsA 15‐week exercise program with three 1‐hour sessions per week, with each session including warmup and then rounds of noncontact boxing using a training device. Three distinct blocks of 5 weeks including active rest. Boxers Development: focus on training technique Boxers Cardio: increasing intensity, including high‐intensity interval training Boxers Brain: focus on cognitively challenging dual task training Main Outcome MeasuresProcess, resource, and management measures including recruitment and retention rates, timelines and costs, and compliance with prescribed exercise targets. Clinical outcomes were safety (adverse events), training intensity (using heart rate and perceived exertion monitoring), tolerability (pain, fatigue, and sleep scores), and pre‐ and postprogram Unified Parkinson Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS‐III).ResultsAmong 10 participants from a pool of 82 (recruitment rate = 12%), there were no withdrawals; 348/360 workouts were completed (adherence = 97.7%); 4/348 (1.1%) workouts were missed due to minor injury. Nine of 10 participants showed improvement in UPDRS motor score.ConclusionsFIGHT‐PD provides a depth of feasibility and safety data, methodological detail, and preliminary results that is not described elsewhere and could provide a useful basis for future studies of boxing training for PD.

“…In kinematics, the angle of the lamb and horse is used to illustrate the stability of the lower limbs and maintain the balance of the body. It is beneficial to increase the hitting effect with the help of the changes in the angle of the body's joints and the ground reaction force [9,10]. e techniques and requirements of Japanese punching boxing: Japanese punching boxing is one of the basic attack methods of Wing Chun [11].…”

With the popularity of Wing Chun film and television themes in recent years, Wing Chun has gradually received more and more attention, but the impact of Japanese punching boxing is rarely involved. The purpose of this article is to study the impact of Wing Chun Day Punch Boxing based on embedded microprocessor, to understand the actual effect of Wing Chun Day Punch Boxing through the analysis of the beat effect, and to provide reference and help for the research of traditional Chinese martial arts. In this paper, experimental methods and mathematical statistics combined with embedded microprocessors are used to research and analyze the punching effect of Wing Chun word punching. And it calculates the speed, angle, angular velocity, angular acceleration, muscle discharge sequence, and other data of various parts of the body during the process of Wing Chun force release to reveal the hitting effect of Wing Chun day word punching. Five Wing Chun practitioners with different training times are selected for Wing Chun day punch training, using engineering dummies for experiments, relying on acceleration sensors, position sensors, and force sensors. Starting from the direction of dynamics and kinematics, it collects the effective data of the Japanese word punch, then analyzes the experimental results through the embedded microprocessor, and obtains the hitting effect of the Wing Chun Japanese word punch. Experiments show that, through the analysis of the force angle and characteristics of the Japanese punch, the subjects’ elbow joint angle changes significantly when doing the Japanese punch. In the experiment on the force measurement engineering dummy, when the subjects punched, the measurement results of the vibration acceleration of the internal organs of different subjects were p > 0.01 , and there was no significant difference. However, in the case of elbow joint 150° preparation, the midline punch is significantly larger than the punch directly in front of the shoulder, and the difference is statistically significant (significant level p < 0.01 ).

“…Preliminary non-randomized controlled studies have highlighted the positive effect of boxing programs on the balance [29,30], mobility [31][32][33], and quality of life [34,35] of people with Parkinson's disease. PD patients who attended boxing programs during the study period reported an improvement in fatigue levels as they felt more energetic, experienced a reduced fear of falling, anxiety, depression, and improved their social lives [36,37]. In addition, they reported a better quality of life than those who had not participated or had previously participated in these programs [26].…”

Parkinson’s disease (PD) is a neurological disorder caused by the loss of dopamine-producing cells in the substantia nigra and characterized by motor and non-motor symptoms. Boxing is a type of complementary therapy to improve symptoms in PD. The purpose of the present study was to examine the effect of boxing training on the functionality and quality of life of patients with PD. The literature search was performed on PubMed, Scopus, PEDro, Cochrane Library, and Google Scholar search engines. The PEDro scale was used to assess the methodological quality of the studies. This systematic review included three studies that examined disease severity, mobility, physical activity, balance, and quality of life. According to the PEDro scale criteria, the three articles included were of high methodological quality. Statistically significant improvements after the implementation of boxing training was shown for balance and quality of life in contrast to the other variables. Boxing training intervention programs had a positive effect on balance and quality of life in patients with PD; however, the results are conflicting regarding certain functionality variables. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct further research to examine the effectiveness of boxing training on the functionality and quality of life of patients with Parkinson’s disease.
