First of all, the height and weight measurements were taken, and then biceps diameter measurements were done to participants. After anthropometrics measurements, a standard 15-minute warm-up protocol was applied before the measurements followed by tests. Lastly standard 30 seconds push-up test, passive bar hang, right and left hands reaction time were applied to participants. Basic boxing training was given to the volunteers for a total of 2 hours per day in a week for 12 weeks. After the 12-week boxing training program, the second measurements were made under the same conditions again and recorded.  </span> </span> </p> <p class="Abstract" style="text-align:justify;margin:0cm -2.85pt .0001pt -5.65pt;"> <span lang="en-gb" xml:lang="en-gb"> <span style="font-size:14px;"> <br /> </span> </span> </p> <p class="Abstract" style="text-align:justify;margin:0cm -2.85pt .0001pt -5.65pt;"> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:14px;" xml:lang="en-gb"> <b>Results: </b>  </span> <span lang="en-gb" style="font-size:14px;" xml:lang="en-gb">The result of the study is that it was found that there was a significant change in some parameters of the individuals who did boxing training 1 day a week. A significant difference (p<0.05) was found in the right biceps’ diameter of the group and the reaction time of the right hands of the group. Only a significant difference in the right arm was seen, it can be caused the majority of the group was right-handed.  </span> </p> <p class="Abstract" style="text-align:justify;margin:0cm -2.85pt .0001pt -5.65pt;"> <span lang="en-gb" xml:lang="en-gb"> <br /> </span> </p> <p class="Abstract" style="text-align:justify;margin:0cm -2.85pt .0001pt -5.65pt;"> <span lang="en-gb" style="line-height:12.84000015258789px;font-size:14px;" xml:lang="en-gb"> <b>Conclusion: </b>  </span> <span lang="en-gb" style="line-height:12.84000015258789px;font-size:14px;" xml:lang="en-gb">12-week boxing training period was increased the number of push-ups and passive bar hanging times.
