Alejandro Sulser – South Beach Boxing Monthly Spotlight Winner
Before South Beach Boxing, I was just working out at standard gyms. I was out of shape, had high body fat, and knew I wanted something more intense. I wanted real results, and I liked boxing. I searched online for boxing gyms and found South Beach Boxing. I went in, took a tour with Simone, and scheduled a free first class. I took boxing with Romeo and I was sold.
I initially signed up for the 8 classes a month option because I had a gym in my building and lived 25-30 minutes away, so coming twice a week worked. When I traveled and missed some time at the gym, I got a text asking, “Where have you been?” I was so impressed. I knew I could make a substantial change because I had real accountability from the team at South Beach Boxing – unlike anything I had experienced before. I wanted to dive in and take full advantage of the opportunity to change my body and my life.
I ended up moving a bit closer, about 15-20 minutes away, and upgraded to unlimited classes. That was a game changer. I committed to a minimum of 4 days a week and consistently met my goal because I loved coming to South Beach Boxing. I would walk in, drop my phone, and train hard without looking at my screen the entire time. In the beginning, I could barely get through one class, but by staying consistent and being pushed by the coaches, I grew stronger and was able to do more, often taking two classes.
Another shift came when I began sparring regularly. Boxing started affecting my life in many positive ways. I learned never to underestimate anyone and realized I needed to build stamina for sparring: never giving up, standing in, and fighting until the final bell without breaking just because I felt tired. I began coming 5 days a week, often staying for hours to work on my craft. That focus and discipline carried directly into my personal and professional life. I value these workouts, and I avoid staying out late because I want to feel great the next morning to train.
South Beach Boxing is truly unlike any other gym. I brought my sister in from out of town – she trains at a Title Boxing gym – and she immediately noticed a huge difference in quality and energy from the moment she entered. We both cannot wait for her to come back for more classes.
To anyone who has never been to South Beach Boxing, I highly recommend it. You get professional boxers and pro athletes in one area, and members from all over the world in another. The energy is incredible, the team has inspiring backgrounds, and people show up ready to work hard. You drop your phone and immerse yourself in an environment where coaches and members push you to be better every day. There is no place like it.
