thank RDJ. My other sport is track running. I have noticed that there really is sport specifikk endurance. In the ring "fat" boxers get less tired than me. I am in much much better running shape than they, but when sparring I get so fast tired. Espesially if I get to agressive. Is there anything I can do to avoid getting that fast tired? I have the endurance but I think I thigthen my body or stop breading sometimes or something.
Apart from the muscle specific conditioning, you're probably too tense in the ring. Or perhaps you hold your breath when under attack, lots of new guys do that.
Thank RDJ. My other sport is track and field. Running 400m. I have noticed that "fat" boxers that dont have good endurance still get less tired than me when sparring. They are more experienced than me for sure. But seems like they are more energy efficient than me. It feels like I am too tense in my muscles and also sometimes I forget too breed. This happens especially If I get agressive or my sparring partner is going hard on me. Any tips on how I can be more energy efficient in the ring?
You should not breed at all in the ring. There's a time and place for everything, but that just ain't it.
hey boxer shorts what was your best time in the 400. did you do any other events. i just started training in boxing as well?i go 4 times a week. and i have the same probelms i get tired fast. my times in highschool was a 53.3 in the 400 and for long jump my best was 21'2. it doesnt really help with anything in boxing though lol.
best time 400m 51.1. 800m 1.58. Yea I have noticed I doesent help as much as I believed! Maybe after some time when I learn to relax.
more questions: 1. I have bought some dumbells 1,5 kg (3 pounds) and I use them when training strength. The training I do is from a video series called titleboxing. "speed and power". Ok my question is how many times pr week should I do the exercise? The session last for 12 minutes 4 roundsx3 minutes with shourt recovery. The exercises is for upperbody, shoulders, armes. Its very hard because of the burning in the mucles. I know you should rest at least one day between tradiotional strength training, but this I feel is different. Am I right? 2. Is it ok to do shadowboxing without a mirror? can I use my dumbells when shadowboxing? Whats important for a beginner to pay attention to when shadowboxing?
