Hopkins in/out of training

Anybody got any information on this man's training routine and how the hell he fights at the top level so well at 46

i'm also interested in how Hopkins lives his life out the ring I hear he doesn't drink or smoke and goes to bed really early every nght

would be interesting to see if this is what makes such a difference and get an overview of how he trains for a fight and his lifestyle out of training camp?

 

And he also eats right.

 

hardwork and dedication

 

I don't know his exact routine, but he's just a gym rat. Eat's healthy, no drink, and stays in the gym and running year round. It's hard on your body and shortens your career if you're constantly going up and down in weight.

It's the dedication and work ethic that has given Hopkins and every boxer success. Hopkins has had more success than most because he is more dedicated. It's not because he follows some magic routine that we could post here and if we did it we would be the same as him.

The article is longer than tat I just posted the part about Hopkins. It's really good, you should read it all.

 

I know that he eats organic foods, and lean meats like chicken and fish.

 

After a fight he celebrates with seafood that's his treat and he don't cut much weight for his fights either

 

Exactly. He also doesn't drink and , most importantly, he's been living this way for at least 15 years.

 

He lives like most Olympic Athletes in other sports, live like all year round.

Its just that in boxing, lets face it.

About 80% of the proffessionals, Booze or eat themselves silly inbetween fights..........and stop training all together.

 

How does everyone thats commenting on Hopkins eating/drinking/training habits know how this man lives on a day to day basis? have any of you hung out with him? trained with him? or even met him? besides him saying He doesn't eat pork because he's a muslim I never read anything on what he eats, drinks, or his training methods and I have never met the man I'm not saying he doesn't do what you guys are saying but it also doesn't mean that he is.

 

Because in an interview he said he only eats organic food ,and also says he doesn't drink ,and didn't even drink on his wedding day.

 

Hopkins is very serious. When him and Oscar went out for pasta, Hopkins had a talk with the cook to not use any cooking wine.

 

doesn't drink cause he is a muslim ... think that may also be a reason.

 

I doubt he would drink even if he wasn't a Muslim.
