personally i think tyson did it, it would explain alot of things about him in his prime. the movement the such powerful phsique for someone 5,11, the 3 mile jog aint long, and the bike aint that long either for a pro fighter i would have thought... this wouldnt be everyday in and out, but more like 3 out of 7 days for maybe 4 weeks leading into a fight i can definately believe it....
well i dont beleive it im sure mike just exAgerated something and was tkaing the ****, do you really beleive he was told to jog with weights to keep him from growing taller?
nar not that bit man lol, but i still believe he trained that just without some of the ridiculous things like a 50pound back packl to keeo him from growing taller... anywayz mark onto you, do you do explosive work? like a circuit work that incorporates jumps, burpies, squats, exlosive pushups feet of floor ont eh way up and clap on chest, dips, all like quicks sets doing around 5 repetitions of each? alot of am boxers that do it feel it helps them and im sure theres no reason why you cant implement it as your fighting a four rounder aswell and will want to be more explosive then ever....
i do olympic weightlifting for explosiveness, nothing better, nothing better for core strength either, im am very experienced with strength and conditioning even train athletes and nothing can beat olympic weightlifting for power, not to mention if you do alot of reps your heart rate goes through the roof very quickly
thats sounds great, would you be able to send me something with some sort of work out to help? im pretty strong without doing weights but you can always improve i feel and thats one area where ive made a resolution to have and concentrate on in this new year..... if you need my email let me know....
Best of luck Bobby, can wait to see you fight for the first time this year. The Tyson training was a bit much for me to believe, and only eating steak, pasta and friut juice, i dont think so, what about veggies!!!! Anyway, ill have a look at and add on the blog, thanks for inviting us have a say also.
no worries marcus, i will be putting some pics up and other info asap, yes i dont beleive tyson training is real at all as someone who has studied training for years it makes no sense to me, but who knows might be true,
I have no idea about training but Tyson regime to me seems fine to me. What areas dont you agree with in this workout?
the volume, if this was a daily routine and he was a natural athlete he would be overtraining, not to mention the lack of carbohydrates and vegetables for such a heavy workload, and where is the progression? how does he improve every week, does he add volume, decrease rest, increase intensity week by week, it just seems like something he or some internet guy made up
here is a good training plan, http://www.sportsci.org/news/news9709/hatfield.html and holyfield was using steroids to keep up with the volume, he now says he doesnt train as hard because he doesnt recover as quick now hes older. older or natural evander?
Looking at Holys training it does seem like someone just made up Tysons and posted it here. It was very simplified.
tysons may be true it may not, i think it is just made up, but boxing training is very backward compared to other sports so maybe it is true, but i dont think anyone shoulod copy it and expect to be like tyson
I want to do more investigation into boxers training methods. It is a very interesting subject and every fighter would be different.
