    I have been training myself for about a year i have been wanting to go to a real boxing gym but been to nerveous to do it. Today i got up the nerve and made my brother go with me to check it out. We were in a with a bunch of noobs. The instrutor asked how long i was boxing because my form was pretty advanced and i was the only south paw in the gym lol. Anyway it was a good time and it was something i wanted to do forawhile. :bbb

    Good for you. Not judging you in anyway, but I hope you did'nt drill any bad habits into yourself while training. Why were you nervous? Is it like a hardcore inner city gym or was it just cause its a new thing? Either way, good luck and train hard.

    How exactly did you teach yourself? Imitating pro fighters or what? Not a bash, just curious.
