Anyone Ever Worked out at the Wild Card?

Discussion in 'Boxing Training' started by Icanmakeitrain, Feb 19, 2012.


  1. i know its like $5 and anyone can work out. However, what do you need to do to get anyone to work with me? Is it possible to pay Freddie enough to give you mitt work?

    Thanks, just curious really..but may be out in LA next year.

    crazy how most answers are on the internet ...

    it's ideal if you go during off hours b/c it can get jam packed during heavy times.

    IM me when you think you're really coming and i'll set you up with a great workout itinerary . . .

    a morning run through the hills of griffith park/old zoo
    http://www.yelp.com/biz/the-old-zoo-griffith-park-los-angeles-2

    pick up a velvet elvis protein shake at gold's gym
    http://www.goldsgym.com/gyms/california/hollywood/201

    which is only a few blocks from wild card: see above link

    your choice of lunch; delicious thai

    or, since you're in LA, go next door to stand in line for roscoe's chicken and waffles.

    before you head to the santamonica stairs

    then the pacific ocean to cool down in a great salt bath (the pacific ocean) at the santa monica pier

    before you walk down to muscle beach in venice to watch basketball, handball, take a surf lesson, or watch all the tourists bump into each other

    next day come see me for a training (no sucky, sucky required).
     
  12. thanks..im not in LA now..might be next year for a few weeks.

    I've been to that gym many times, though it has been 5 years. Friday is sparring day. I've seen a lot of people working out there but I've never noticed anybody helping them, unless they train there regularly. I'd be suprised if you could walk in and get somebody to spend time with you for $5; they are pretty busy there.

    I went there in May. Walked in and a fella (tall guy with an afro, cant remeber his name) at the desk asked for ID and 5 dollars if I wanted to workout. He took me for 2 rounds on the pads then said for another 2 rounds it was another 5 dollars which was fair enough. That day anyway there was quite a few trainers in the gym asking me if I wanted any help. Khan and Chavez jr were in training that day too and hit the mitts with Freddie. I was told that Monday, Wednesday and Friday are the sparring days for the guys in camp, but that could be just for that particular camp. Anyway, cool place and everyone in there is super friendly.
