    Pink Gloves Boxing - New Fitness Craze

     

    Two recent college graduates have established an innovation to the fitness industry. In an economic downturn, Pink Gloves Boxing (PGB) provides a genuine fitness program that helps women better their quality of life and accomplish their personal goals. PGB claims to be not just a good or service, but a long-term benefit that will help women in all realms of life.

     

    PGB is a women's small group training program that is tiered much similar to that of the black belt system in martial arts. Women learn the motivating art of goal setting and exercise using boxing specific strength and conditioning drills. Unlike programs that claim a quick fix, Pink Gloves empowers women to make a lifestyle commitment towards positive health.

     

    On the business side of things, PGB is expanding very quickly. What started in Montana has now spread to the east coast and will soon be in Sweden. National Public Radio has even featured PGB in this recent link < http://www.npr.org/templates/story/story.php?storyId=122030657 >.

     

    Along with a Dale Carnegie approach to help others, PGB follows the philosophies from mentor Mike Chaet and his small business success book Loops - The Seven Keys to Small Business Success.

     

    With awareness in personal health increasing, PGB is prepared to help spread awareness and motivate women to Reveal Their Inner Champion.  10% of all proceeds are donated for breast cancer research.
