Complete beginners guide to a boxing routine

Man I've asked myself the same question...i;m 24 and started boxing 5 months ago. I've been an athlete of some sort my entire life and I was in pretty good shape to begin with, but boxing is something else-i've dropped 28lbs

At first I wasnt sure how seriously I was plannin on taking boxing but once I started getting better I realized at some point I had to compete to see what I am made of....

Is 1 year from now an unrealistic time frame in which to develop into a contender at 25?? I work out with a trainer 3 days a week and 2 days on my own....

 

Are you training to be pro or ametuer?

 

pro

 

Depends what kind of contender.

 

Rocky Marciano turned pro in his mid twenties.... he went on to become the only undefeated Heavyweight champion of all time. That was with very little amateur experience too. He just wanted it badly.

That about sums up Boxing.

 

Hey guys. new here.
How about training mentally for fighting? Any exercises for that?

 

The training is so hard you have to be mentally prpared to train let alone fight! You should just get the raining in, eat right and get as much good sparring as possible and then you'll know mentally that you are ready to fight.

 

Ah, old memories this stuff brings up.

 

Thanks man.

 

Np worries.

 

Hey guys,
New here and kind of new to the world of boxing training. Is it bad to use weights? I used to train for boxing at college and they told us that if we want to use weights on our own free time go ahead but make sure its in sets of 25-30 reps. Would you guys agree?

 

Hey fellas, was my first session training yesterday & this thread gave me a good idea of what to expect, thanks! Loved every second of it but hurting this morning, can hardly lift my arms!!

 

This is great information!

Do you all have any suggestions how one might tweak this for MMA training? Any information you might provide would be appreciated.

Sincerely,
Chris
