I'm not, you said something that I felt I should add to. You made it sound like doing jump squats were dangerous when they're really not if done properly, you said doing them constantly will injure you. I said yes, doing anything constantly will injure you. I don't understand why you're being sensitive, I wasn't having a go at you in your first post either.

shadow boxing is good to practice rhythm within the combinations witch then transfers body movement behind the punch giving maximum power from body weight

the punch starts from the legs to the waist which then relises the arms which backs up the fist

what about atlantic muscles.

The thing is...if you are boxing..you should be doing heavy boxing workouts at least 4 days a week....that is your most important thing....the old school shit..the heavybag, the double end bag, the shadowboxing, the skill work the sparring...the mitts (which is kind of newish school). Than you should also be some kind of running...sometimes distance...sometimes sprints..sometimes a combo..i would say you should run at least 3 days a week.


So that means you have already worked out 7 times...now even if you are eating right, and sleeping well..you still only have so much engery that can go into the weight room..that means you want to hit your high percentage muscles first...legs, back (with the back you get some arm work as well) and some chest....trying to do 8 sets of bicep curls, and tri push downs, and multiple sets on chest...flat bench, flies, decline incline..all that other shit..your going to end up over training..or needing to take away from your sports specific training......


Basically you have limited physical resources....and your first priority needs to be boxing skill and sports specific explosiveness...followed by cardio (worse thing in the world is too gas out in a fight...that 400 pound bench press wont help you if you are about to fall over).

For that reason..I think a basic 3 days a week 5x5 of squats dead lifts and flat chest might be best..with a few other sets of things mixed in.

3 times a week of deadlift and squat?

That sounds like overkill.

Also man, 4 times a week on the heavybag don't sound bad now, but I'll just say make sure you protect the shit outta your hands. B HOP is not the norm. I don't know how the fuck he still does it.

Pascal was probably right. He probably is on PEDs. He got up and slapped Pascal though, so we all just took his word.

bigger muscles do suck up more oxygen though...making it harder to keep your conditioning up.

That's about average.

You are a big time hater.

Hater of what exactly? Your numbers are average at best.

Unless you weigh under 150lbs a 400lbs deadlift is very poor for somebody that supposedly participated in powerlifting for over 10 years.

No weights, and I'm still stronger at liftin weights than your punk ass.

Really? You worked this out how exactly? How much can I bench/deadlift/squat?

Such a load of nonsense, i can't stand when people say that. More strength = more efficient movement if you hypertrophy fast twitch muscles, if you hypertrophy slow twitch muscles then you have greater peripheral endurance, more capillaries and mitochondria. The most important thing is central fitness (VO2max) and lactate tolerance. It's the strength to weight ratio that makes a difference, you can have large muscles and have elite cardio fitness. If your muscles have been trained for whatever activity then the blood goes there, you have the capillaries to offload oxygen. This stupid myth comes from the fact that people who are generally muscular do less cardio and people who are endurance athletes generally do less resistance training. If you can fit both in with a properly periodised plan then having larger muscles is going to help your endurance if they've been trained with your sport in mind.
And back to the point, how the hell is a small muscle like the triceps going to make any difference to anything? If a muscle isn't being used much then it's not sucking up anything is it? It's just an extra 200 grams or whatever of weight proximal to a joint (so has a small moment arm) that your whole body is going to have to overcome, it's not going to make any difference.
You're like a treasure trove of misinformation, I don't think I've ever seen a post of yours that doesn't have something stupid in it.

Excellent and factual post. Except the being an asshole part.

You can't even put up that much. I told you numerous times to post a video.

You said you were in the 1500 club, so post a video of you deadlifting supposedly 600+.

Regardless, it's irrelevant anyway. The point is, I don't lift weights, and I've retained almost everything I lifted before.

For a 400 lb deadlift, 40 lbs is 10%.

That ain't shit.
