I want to box but I don't know where to start

go to a gym first then if you like it start buying some equipment

 

go to a gym asap. dont train by yourself

 

Nah, not at all. There are plenty of examples of fighters getting a late start in boxing and went on to become champions and successful fighters.

 

whats next, " i bought some new boxing shoes, how do i tie my laces"

 

Go to a gym, it's pretty scary at first to turn up at a boxing gym but if you try and learn yourself to box you'll only end up with bad habits all over the place

 

Going to a gym first is always the best choice because 1, you get to see up front what you're really getting yourself into, and 2, trying to "train" on your own will only ingrain bad habits into your movements that have nothing to do with the fundamentals of boxing you'll have to master.

 

Harsh, the more newbie questions the better.

 

Nah man I started at 24.

 

thats not a newbie question its common sense i thought

want to box = boxing gym
want to swin = swimming pool
want to play golf = golf course

 

You could start by purchasing a cpl of boxing dvd's (I kow there are 2 on the everlast site) then after a few weeks joing a gym.

 

Me too. I have my first match in a few days and I am 24.
