Research indicates that Americans of all ages are consistently failing to meet national recommendations for regular physical activity (CDC, 2007). Yet, regular participation in physical activity has been found to provide many physical and psychological benefits and to enhance individuals' overall quality of life. Health promoters are interested in identifying physical activity types that promote physical activity initiation and maintenance. This qualitative study explored the experiences of those who participate in fitness boxing, an increasingly popular type of physical activity. Results indicate that fitness boxing is experienced by those who regularly participate in it as a source of community, physical improvement, uniqueness, emotional release, enjoyment and personal empowerment. Hence, those interested in promoting individuals' regular physical activity participation may want to consider this physical activity type. Further, results provide insights into the structures and processes of physical activity programs that may facilitate regular participation.
