Im looking to Become Heavyweight Champ

wbc heavyweight champ or just british heavyweight champ??

 

Bench press does seem very low for someone your size but that doesn't matter. What can you squat and deadlift? Are you actually boxing at the moment?

 

Training your posterior chain i.e. squats and deadlifts is what translates into punching power and making you a lot more powerful overall.

What's your weight and body fat percentage? 15 stone of muscle takes a loooong time unless you've already got a decent amount of muscle.

 

Don't view it as a trade off. "Hitting the weights" won't necessarily slow you down - you just have to train right and be patient.

 

I'd just go the boxing gym and do sprints inbetween to get fit first and see how it goes before you start hammering the weights, you may not need to as you think.

 

Film would definitely help us to gauge your chances... But if you are looking to get stronger I would focus on push-ups, pull-ups and core-strengthening exercises(hindu push-ups/squats, crunches,etc.) as bench press could cause you to get too bulky. I do however recommend squats, leg curls and other leg strenthening exercises as leg strength will be vital to generating punching power.

 

Good luck. Real strength is technique.

 

Huh?

 

I think that some people just need a little reminder - size is primarily a by product of caloric intake... not 'hitting the weights, bench presses etc'.
