I kind of get sick of hearing of all this new fancy stuff. S&C, supplements, hyperbaric chambers, gadgets... I always find myself rooting for guys who rough it the old-fashioned way. Glass of raw egg in the morning, roadwork, sledgehammer on an old tire...
Yeah well the more they go with speed, power and science. The more fighters that fight old school - will prosper by KO. Seriously though, a Dempsey-eske fighter would deadset murder half of these new age robots.
Those guys are dying out...theres a reason for that. Boxing is like every other sport, you cant train like cavemen and expect to be able to compete. People say "well this guy trained like an old school fighter and still won" when they should be saying "this guy is amazing! he managed to train like a caveman and still beat the the other guy...imagine how good he'd be if he improved his training" George Best and Lionel Messi probbaly had similiar ability, but Messi will be going for years at the highest level whereas Best was washed up in his 20s,at a time when the guys he was ging up against werent as fit as the guys Messi is ghoing up against
Love the title of 'State of the Art' and then the image preview of the training video being someone jumping in and out of a tire.
Victor Conte is such an unqualified clown. If he had any sort of education he'd understand why that Intermittent Hypoxic Training is not only useless but detrimental if anything. Also lol at Nonito's attempt to explain it.
he is always trying to imitate other fighters.. first time i saw it, it was fun, but its getting boring
I'm always of two minds about it. Sometimes I see that it makes sense and should be applied as a proven method, and other times I think the power of the mind and the raw dedication necessary during a gritty old-school regimen is more useful when the going gets tough. Since there's never really a consensus on how the body works, it's up to preference IMO. My friend who studied neuroscience and is big into the science of strength and conditioning expressed similar sentiments when he said "this stuff is always changing so it doesn't bother me one bit when someone swears by hitting a tire with a hammer." If it gets results, it's all good.
