how long is the rest between sets?

SlickMick · 02-17-2012, 01:59 AM

To be honest that seems like a lot. I'm completely out of shape, what should I focus on? I'm pretty sure I'm not going to be able to do everything and I'll have to scale it a bit.

I like the look of this. I'm going to give it a try.

When I first done this I was 145kg and outa shape so bad but still made it through it just have to push hard the only thing I changed was the running I done it in a x trainer, now I weigh in at 115 kg and feel fighting fit training 5 times a week 14-19 hrs a week

I'm a beginning planning on starting this in the next week or so. Thanks for the OP, very thorough

Just some concerns: I know some people say not to jump into the heavy-bag and I'm concerned about balance/footwork. Is there any good drills to practice so that I'm not totally off balance starting off with the heavy bag? I don't want to get into bad habits. Would a sac ladder help with general footwork/speed? Also, would it be ill-advised to do too much on the heavy-bag without a trainer or supervisor to point out mistakes or give advice, or would work on the heavy-bag get me into bad habits defence-wise as it doesn't hit back?

If you want to learn technique go to a gym a trainer will show you.
Bad habits come when nobody corrects your mistakes.

Thanks, that's what I'm afraid of happening if I do too much on my own.

Definitely start with a coach who will show you a proper stance before picking up a heavy bag routine. I'm 36 and every time I wrap my hands and shadow box getting warm for my heavy bag workout I can still hear my old trainer positioning me.

Heavy bag is the best way to get into bad habits, or fall into them if you go too far between actual training.

Hello, new to this forum and boxing overall, started a couple of weeks ago!

I was checking out the routine at it looks great! How many hours per week would a routine like that take, thinking about combining with my workouts at the boxing gym
or would it be too much when being a complete beginner

Cheers

What kind of warming up is recommended for the Anaerobic Conditioning?

fisticuffa · 03-24-2013, 05:08 PM

hey guys, im just about to start learning boxing. in about a year or maybe less if im ready, i want to compete as an amateur.

im trying to get fit right now. is doing p90x everyday and going to the boxing gym in the evening too taxing for the body or should i be good as long as i eat and get enough sleep?

Thank you so much Relentless for that first post. (I have not had time to read much else yet). I have been training for a long time but I have got stuck in a rut and thought I would have a look and see if there are things I can be doing to inject some excitement back into things. This is it! I am annoyed with myself that I have been a member here for so long but I have only very recently started looking at the Training posts.

I really love the punchbag routine and I look forward to trying it out asap.
Thanks again!
