Am I training right?

Simple answer stop the schedule ...do legs once a week and go by body feel...other words..work whats not hurting and keep a log on strong days...always go by feel to what you SHOULD be working..any trainer that tells you other ..well,...they are idiots. some muscles take a longer healing period,io need hands on to give reputable advice!

 

Well i would be afool like most to give you a schedule...you CANT give a guy a schedule if you are not working with him.....ppl train different,some muscles heal quicker /some dont...i always went on body feel ...this is important b/c you wont over train...theres a fine line between training hard and training dumb....

again only you know this...the trainers job is to get MAXIMUM performance not a decline..its a FINE science so i cant tell you what to do...I CAN tell you go by body feel..ive been training for 3 decades and know what to train and when ...this will go far for you. Its not a race but procedure of getting better.

 

Ignore stupidity and make smart choices ..obvioulsly i know more bc ive been training since as CRAZY as 1987 but i know my stuff/////always go by body feel if your fighting or wanting to get into that area.

P.S read the past post i posted to show you noobs and real guys who actually fought! The kid Dago dope never been punched in the face or stepped foot in a gym so be careful ,,he READS AND POST ARTICLES ON THE SUBJECT AND pretends ITS HIS EXPERIANCE..... I WOULD LOVE TO CLEAN HIS CLOCK BUT HE DECLINED!

I have actual vids of me in this section ,he deleted his for good reason!

 

You don't need to lift weights that much. Calisthenics do the work basic situps, pushups, pullups, squats, medicine ball workouts, etc. One weightlifting / powerlifting session a week is enough.

My basic calistechnic workout I like to do: Just sit on the floor and do 20 minutes as much as situps, pushups, squats and pullups as possible.

 

Sorry but this makes no sense.

If someone is going to be lifting weights it has to be for a specific reason, lifting weights for the sake of it is pointless. You should be able to justify every rep you do of any exercise otherwise most likely you shouldn't be doing it.

If there's a specific reason i.e. strengthening the hips, you train regardless of your legs feeling a bit tired.

 

I think what he's saying is to focus on areas where you feel a lack of strength, versus superfluously building every muscle in your body using some routine.

I think for certain people this works.
Personally that's what I lean towards to as well. But there are times when someone shows my an exercise that builds my muscles a certain way I had no idea about.

I think the key is to balance yourself to be open to new routines while also curating to what works for you.

 

In my opinion schedules like that kills the joy of boxing. I mean some people start boxing to learn something new every day, break the routine and improve different aspects of your game in different ways working with different people and enjoy doing it.

Is it too much work? I don't know, to me it sounds kind of hard to your body, but mostly boring and stiff.

My ideal for a beginner is to improve the basis of boxing to the point where you can improve your body by increasing the intensity and quantity of some drills (pads, shadow or heavy bag), also increasing the technical difficult to load your arsenal.

 

Lads, do you ever think that the people asking questions on here aren't interested in listening to the veteran posters clogging up the threads with personal insults?

For me, I''m starting out and interested in getting whatever advice I can. I appreciate it and respect the guy giving it. Anything else is just a waste of time.

 

The way I read his post was pretty much only train legs and only when you feel 100%, which is poor advice.

OP, if you're just getting into the sport it's as simple as drop all this BS for now and learn how to box. You need your body to be 100% while training at first, particularly when learning new movement patterns. Worry about weight training later, if at all.

The only reason you add training methods (particularly weight training) is to fix a weakness, otherwise what's the point? Training consists of finding a weakness and adding a training method to fix that weakness. Simple as.

As you've only just started you don't know your weaknesses which makes this routine of randomly thrown together exercises a waste of time and effort.

 

True

 

'The only reason you add training methods (particularly weight training) is to fix a weakness, otherwise what's the point?"

This is actually terrible advise of the quote above.. why bother training if your not going to actually improve while you are training? what i said cant be argued because you dont over work muscles that arent or shouldnt be worked if they hurt a certain day. In other words you dont work out to fix a weakeness ,you work out to make the body stronger and better balanced. working out will make it harder to have any weaknesses. it should be a part of any serious athletes training program ,not because you need to help fix something.

"Training consists of finding a weakness and adding a training method to fix that weakness. Simple as. '


This is solid advice above so i dont know where the first quote came from?

You dont work out legs more than once a week specially if you are also boxing this shouldnt be that difficult to under line and do. Strength training will improve ones performance at any sport,a and you get physically better doing so, weight training has no effect on boxing if one takes my advise what i posted. you guys act , like hes going to be ready for olymopic weight lifting team if he starts lifting....sorry it dont work like that. Minor or major work outs ,beginner or advanced training will only advance ability more quicker not slow him down...thems the facts.
