What Are Sparring Sessions?
Sparring Sessions are great for mastering your boxing technique in a programmed punch sequence that combines the best of Punch Tracks with Trainer Classes. In a Sparring Session, your Trainer is the DJ, walking you through different punch combinations before you spar on your own to the beat of the music. These classes challenge you to find your rhythm and flow, to follow your Trainer’s instructions, and to not give up the fight.
How it works: Your Trainer starts by walking you through different punch combos you’ll throw in that round, offering guidance and technique tips. Then the Trainer’s chosen Punch Track plays so you can practice that combo on your own in a one-song round before popping back on with your Trainer to demo the next combo.
Sparring with the Liteshield: With each song, you’ll practice timing your punches to the beat as our LED lights radiate from the Liteshield’s center to one of our six targets. Think of those targets on your Liteshield as your sparring partner. The top three are swings to the head while the bottom three are body shots. No matter where you’re punching, you’ll know you’ve made an accurate hit when the lights turn green.
What to choose: You have options for 2, 3, 4, 5, or 10 song Sparring Sessions so you can pick the workout duration that’s right for you. Sparring Sessions also cover a variety of genres, from hip hop to R&B to rock, so there’s something for everyone (and every mood).
Increase the difficulty: Sparring Sessions range from beginner to advanced, with options for every fighter. You can adjust the fight to match your fitness level so your workout offers just the right amount of challenge.
Real-Time Results
The Liteshield, an innovative blend of hardware and software, is at the center of every Sparring Session. Its force-detecting LED light pads sync with the rhythm of the music and track your hits, telling you in real-time whether you’ve thrown an accurate punch or not via the green and red light indicators. Then, after your Sparring Session is complete, you can view your average punching force, accuracy, and stamina right in the Litesport app.
Beat your best score: With our Litesport Scoring System, you can try to top the Leaderboards, compete with friends, and watch yourself get stronger with every Sparring Session.
Community competition: You can also join our Litesport community for access to accountability coaching, fitness motivation, challenges and competitions, and the opportunity to connect with and get feedback from our Litesport Trainers.
