Kicking off a new year (and a new set of resolutions) leads many of us to add a fresh workout routine to our to-do list. If hitting the treadmill isn't for you, you might consider following in the footsteps of your favorite models and opt for some time in the ring instead. But since part of the fun of a new workout is a new uniform, we're here to put first things first: the boxing and kickboxing outfits you need to spur your motivation.
To help convince you that this is the workout to finally try in 2018, we're sharing Instagrams from a few of our favorite style stars in action. In addition, we've rounded up the staples you need (from gloves to sports bras to sneakers) so you'll be ready for however many rounds you're ready to tackle.
