Question
Hello, I used to belong to a Boxing gym, but had to quit because their hours changed and now conflict with my work schedule. I went mainly for weight loss purposes because I'm about 310 lbs and am 27 years old. What would be a good boxing workout for weight loss that I could do at my current (lack of) fitness level.

Thank you for reading my question

Answer
You may not want to hear this but it sounds like the most important thing that you need is diet to get you to a managable weight where you can do allot of exercises.  I would first diet and start slowly cycling or running to get the weight down.  

Thanks,

Joe
