Are they good books for an actual workout, interesting info at all, ive read that just because rjj's for example workout worked for him does not mean it will work for others (no matter how fit you are), true? also boxers change their workouts during training all the time, doesnt seem to be mentioned here? i just want to know if its a good book to follow concerning world class fighters traing methods? or if its a good book in general...
All your points are valid. You can't buy this book and then do the workouts. But it is interesting because it reveals little bits and bobs surrounding fighters philosophies...Jones never trained with weights, Hatton never ran, stuff like that. I own the first one, and I like it.
thanks. im sure i saw jones doing weights before the ruiz fight, possibly an exception since it was a HW bout... i also wonder how jones was so muscly with no weights, building that kind of muscle has to be very difficult doing just boxing exercises.
I've got them both and I've not taken any training idea's from the books, none the the less they give you an insight in what it's like to train as a pro. If you want to train you should train to your particular style and build, key point being train hard and often, that's something this book really hammered into me. I also noticed one or two big errors in the second book. I'm sure I read Ricky Hatton lost via KO to Juan Manuel Marquez.
