There's a reason why every celebrity in Hollywood is lacing up her boxing gloves -- and it has nothing to do with training for a role inside the ring. According to Jeff Hunter, the face of boxing apparel brand Everlast and a trainer at YG Studios, boxing is the single-most effective way to tone the entire body and torch massive amounts of fat in a hurry. According to Hunter you can burn anywhere between 500 to 700 calories in a single 20-minute boxing session (as long as you're giving it 100 percent, of course).

"This high intensity interval training combines your cardio and resistance training, and it's not as monotonous as traditional exercise can sometimes be," says Hunter. "Look at any body of a boxer and they're very lean and muscular. It's an amazing and effective workout." No wonder supermodels like Gigi and Gisele are stepping away from the yoga mat and into the ring.

It also doesn't hurt that it's a healthy way to blow off steam. Even Gwyneth Paltrow, queen of all things serene, says she throws punches regularly in order to "experience aggression."

So wrap your wrists and lace up your gloves, ladies. This 20-minute boxing workout, designed by Hunter, will get you shredded and burn off any bad day.
