Sikaran is a traditional Filipino martial art that combines elements of kickboxing and grappling. It is known for its emphasis on speed, agility, and power, making it a great form of physical exercise. In this article, we will discuss some of the health benefits of practicing Sikaran.

  • Cardiovascular fitness: Sikaran is a high-intensity cardio workout that can help improve your cardiovascular fitness. The combination of kicking, punching, and grappling movements will get your heart rate up, helping to improve your endurance and cardiovascular health.
  • Strength and conditioning: Sikaran requires the use of many different muscle groups, making it a great way to build strength and improve your overall conditioning. The kicking and punching movements will work your upper body, while the grappling movements will work your lower body and core.
  • Flexibility and balance: Sikaran requires a lot of movement and flexibility, which can help improve your flexibility and balance. The kicking movements, in particular, require a lot of flexibility in the hips, legs, and ankles, making it a great way to improve your overall flexibility and balance.
  • Stress relief: Practicing Sikaran can also be a great way to relieve stress. The physical exertion and focus required in training can help to clear your mind and relieve tension.
  • Self-defense: Sikaran is also a great form of self-defense, teaching practitioners how to defend themselves against different types of attacks.
