high intensity training...how good is it for boxing or for general

Its not Functional, its for Show not Go.

 

What?

So you're saying that sometimes boxers should put muscle on for the hell of it and that weightlifting (C+J, Snatch etc.) influences bodybuilding and vice versa? What planet do you inhabit?
A boxer doesn't have to worry too much about pure strength, punching isn't a pushing motion but actually a throwing motion so it is high speed. Rate of force development is more important than maximal pushing strength that'll never be applied in the time frame it takes to throw a punch.
That's why a boxer benefits most from power exercises. Adding weight (Muscle or fat) that isn't sports specific just means that the boxer has more inertia to overcome to apply his force.
Your bodybuilding exercises you're talking about are good for no one other than a football or basketball player who needs to add some bulk to hold there ground better in a contest.
Tell me again about all the bodybuilders you've seen performing snatches

 

I could say the same to you in reverse... Go tell your friends to go see Scrap and the guys he trains and we'll see how well your friend's footwork, balance, coordination, accuracy, power etc match up in terms of boxing.

Either way what you said is completely redundant.

 

Why would I want to do that, makes no sense to me.

 

Well what I was implying, was they Pose, its for Show. Muscle if not Functional is of little use for Athleticism. Theres a saying the Body works all or nothing in Balance. There Body is not built for Athletic performance, where all the Highways go through the Heart, if you undersrand.

 

I think what scrap means is that,....Bodybuilders, train to get big for their competition which involves getting covered in fake tan and pulling faces on a stage.

whereas a boxers routine would be completely different due the demands of the sport. same with football, hockey, basketball, tennis etc. all require different movements.

 

first off im new here so dont want any arguements, I joined the forum as a beginner on the look out for sound boxing advice from more experienced guys.

2nd - i never once implied they were sissies

thirdly - building a muscle back up,...id call that rehab. not someone undertaking 'bodybuilding' to get back to normal

 

Never said they were, its not functional, for Athletic Sport, in many aspects.

 

You don't seem to understand the difference between muscle and strength. They are not equivalent, strength is mostly a neural adaptation which is why specificity is so important. Bodybuilders are weak pound for pound, isolating muscles means that those muscles don't work too well in sequential movements, which is what an athlete needs.
Yes bodybuilders will do heavy compound movements sometimes to hit the larger fibers but most of their work is high volume to hypertrophy their smaller fibers.
Do you get it yet? A strength and conditioning coach might include bench press or some certain isolation exercises if the athlete has a certain weakness or injury. That's for a purpose, not for building muscles for the hell of it.
You're obviously uneducated about these things, muscle can often make you weaker pound for pound. Athletes need strength training that is sports specific, not muscle building.
