I've only been boxing around 6 weeks. I'm about 17 and was in very good physical condition before I started (training 6 times a week) I can go 6 rounds, though i'll concede Im not that good at it. Lack of technique
Nice post I just changed my routine so its loosely based on this. The 45 minute runs suck but so does gassing out.
eat raison brand says 5 grams protein per serving for name brand stuff plus its good get some orange juice with it too. and for the time maybe 6:30-7:15 range? gives you time to get ready for work or school at 8:00
brilliant posts. One think i get stuck on tho is losing motivation if i'm stuck to a plan for too long. thats some brilliant help though, think i better give up the cigs if your guide expects me to go 6, 3 minute rounds, i only do 4 at the moment and that gets me fukt!!
ok I am looking into doing this full time not just doing it while I am deployed the workout you gave is good, I think but I am looking to be a contender in 1yr to 18months who would i talk to in order to make this all happen. any suggestions?
thats a great routine for a beginner to follow (or aim to complete anyway). ive been boxing for about 10 months and can easily complete most of that now. my only trouble would be with the legs, the guys at my gym don't seem to focus that hard on them. my question to you guys would be for clarification, do you really benefit in boxing from working your legs that hard? I can imagine if i were to try it, that i'd be pretty much useless for anything else after.
Is it advisable to have breakfast before you go for a run in the morning? i'm worried about getting half way round and being sick because I've eaten too much or too little. My usual breakfast is a bowl of porridge with a glass of orange juice follwed by a banana.
I dont really do interval training as detailed in the workout plan, theres a hill behind where i work, with quite a steep incline, on my lunch breaks I run up that hill( approx 10 mins) at a high pace, then down the other side, then back up again fast pace, then when i get to the bottom I do two spints full pace of about 100 m each with 50 metres jog in between. In total this takes me about 20 to 30 mins, I do it everyday at work so 5 times a week, added to that I run every morning a small jog of 20 mins to a kid park close to where i live and use the kiddy play ground for pull ups chin upp, sit ups and push ups, i try do 100 sit ups, 100 push ups and 30 to 40 pull ups every morning before work( although sometimes i run to work like once or twice a week which takes me about 40 to 45 mins with a 5 kg backpack). I also try to fit in two days at the gym for doing some weights(mainly compound exercises) and one day a week of swimming + sauna and steam room = usualy on my day off ,saturday. added to that i do boxing training train 5 times a week (monday,tuesday, thursday, friday and sunday) is this a good workout? can some one advise me if im doing something wrong ? Cheers. PS: ive got my second fight coming up in a month i really want to be as fit as possible, im 6ft4 , for 88 kg im rather lanky for my weightclass any advice on how to handle a smaller stockier person ? cheers again.
