Frank Wood

Knockout Fitness was founded by professional heavyweight boxer Frank Wood.
In 1995, Frank, seeking to maintain the intense training schedule of a professional fighter, decided to share his regimen with the public, leading to the creation of Knockout Fitness. The gym had humble beginnings, starting in the basement of a rental house. As demand for Frank's personalized boxing training grew, so did the business, and this year marks its 30th anniversary. During this time, Frank's professional boxing career also flourished, with him competing across the U.S. and internationally from 1995 until his retirement in 2006. He retired with a 26-4 record, including 18 knockouts.
Today, Knockout Fitness continues to offer authentic boxing and kickboxing training in a fun and supportive environment. With over 35 years of experience, Frank provides expert instruction on boxing form and technique, ensuring a safe, enjoyable, and effective workout for all participants.

PRIVATE Training
At Knockout Fitness, we understand that boxing can seem intimidating, which is why we provide a fun, safe, and welcoming environment for everyone—regardless of age, size, or ability. As you learn the basics of boxing, you'll alternate between intense effort and active recovery, combining both aerobic and anaerobic training. Boxing engages your lower body, upper body, and core as you work with heavy bags, hand mitts, and more. We also include other boxing fundamentals like the speed bag, double-end bag, weighted medicine balls, battle ropes, and calisthenics in a dynamic 1-hour full-body routine. This training enhances endurance, speed, and power, tones without bulking, and boosts metabolism for an effective, calorie-burning workout!

WHAT TO EXPECT: Come to your session dressed comfortably in regular workout attire and shoes. Your boxing session is always NON-CONTACT and lasts approximately 1 hour. In your first appointment, we do take some extra time teaching you the various punches with proper form as you move through the various circuits at a comfortable pace.
​
You will be training in hand wraps (2" x 180") for added support and protection, and 16 oz hook and loop Velcro closure boxing gloves. Our trainer will wrap your hands to ensure they are wrapped correctly. We provide used gloves and hand wraps during your session, but also these items are available for purchase if you prefer.
