What I recommend that you do for a workout is run 1-6 miles a day. After that, hitting the heavybag (with no gloves) for 15 rounds to make your hands tougher and to give you punching endurance. People always think that the muscle gives you a good punch, but it is truly tough hands that do the trick. After that I recommend doing the speed bag for 5 rounds, skipping rope for 5 rounds, and then shadowboxing with barbells for 5 rounds. I also recommend that you do ab workouts to make your body tougher. You might want to do the butterfly press workout to strengthen your chest muscles, as they will benefit your punch. Most of all I recommend sparring 15 rounds a day with no helmet to make you tougher and to increase your skill.

Study's have proven that long distance running is not applicable to boxing, things like tabata intervals are much more beneficial to the sport and at increasing your metabolism. Also hitting the heavy bag for 15 rounds without gloves is just stupid, putting that much strain on your hands is pointless, after all you fight in gloves.

The power of a punch comes from technique and balance not how hard your hands are, this isn't martial arts or mma where you have to harden up your elbows and shins. Muscle does contribute to punch power and there are much better workouts than this as this really is not that intense unless your just going high intensity on the heavy bag for 15 rounds.

15 rounds of sparring a day is extreme especially for amatuer boxing, and to do it without head guards is pointless, after all you fight in head guards. Getting cut should be the least of your worries when sparring, it is time to sharpen your skills against a live opponent.

That is a very archaic training system and one that I hope no one follows.

No offense but id like to see you spar 15 rounds everyday... i bet u cant unless your moving in slow mo. and you should study more efor you write...Power comes from snap (loose to tight using your whole body to transfer energy from the ground through your body into one point, and in boxing that point is your fist. Thats where power comes from the onlything tough hands really helps in is a streetfight. If you understand boxing u shouldnt follow this nd you should change your workout monthly atleast to keep ur body guessing so u dont get used to your workout til the point it doesnt do nething for you.

yeah that regieme would just wear your body down to exhaustion

nice workout i thnk htting bag does hands good but u have to do som,e weights (3x25kg)

Salty, running is beneficial for Boxing.

:luvbed:were do you get your info

That is the most stupid routine ive heard on this forum lol. Spar 15 rounds a day ur having a laugh lol. Pathetic rofl

Ridiculous regime. I guarantee you don't do it either.

he said "long-distance running", not "running"

excessive endurance/aerobic training can actually lead to a bit of a decrease in anaerobic conditioning

Study's have proven that long distance running is not applicable to boxing, things like tabata intervals are much more beneficial to the sport and at increasing your metabolism.

No, there are studies that prove everything these dayz. Science is defined as the state of knowing. For long distance running to have lasted from the beggining of time, shows it it is not as bad as many would like you too believe. Champions have been using it for centuries and if it hindered anything, then it would have been dropped long ago.

And about increasing your metabolism, EPOC is way overrated. And in many cases, Post exercise calorie expenditure is not as great as people would like too think.

I didn't say cut it out comletely, just there are better alternatives for improving your anaerobic conditioning than running 6 miles, it's a big chunk of time wasted each day when you could have been practising technique, etc.

Do you know what tabata intervals even are? It lasts 4 mins and gets you more exhausted than a 6 mile run. Long distance running also causes the breakdown of muscle tissue, which is why you see marathon runners built like twigs. You train for what your competing in, boxing is a anaerobic sport so whats the point running 40 miles a week?

Also your point about champions using for centuries is flawed, hunters used spears for centuries too, now they use more efficient methods aka a gun. The world evolves and so should your training.

Am marathon training regime has way more volume then a 1-6 mile run daily. Most marathon runners run upwards of 100 miles a week. And yes, I know what Tabata Intervals are. I inculde them occasionally in my training program but believe they don't hold much value for my goals. As for muscle loss, that is completely false.

That passage I wrote was out of one of Ross Enamaits books. Do you know who that is? Except he was referring to bodyweight squats rather then distance running. Same principles, however. And to what you wrote, this boxer said it best:

And it's not "a bunch of guys from the past"...it's the vast majority of current Fighters (specifically successful ones), among other Athletes of various Sports across the entire Globe. They run in South America, they run in Canada, they run in Europe a damn sight more than we do here, they run ridiculous amounts in Africa, they run in Asia, and I'm talking specifically about Combat Athletes.

There could be exceptions to the rules, but exceptions hardly negate existences of rules. You don't change a World perspective by boasting open-mindedness and stating a couple of references to individuals who the mold doesn't apply to. That's just now how it works.

Look at the current fighters who successfully incorporate long distance running (and mostly) into their training regime. Floyd Mayweather, Kelly Pavlik, Pacman, Ricky Hatton, Jermain Taylor, Oscar De La Hoya, Michael Katsidis, Winky Wright, Zab Judah, Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto etc etc. Champions run, run and run and long distance running has been proven countless times to be an efficient conditioning method for boxing, through these champions.

ffs interval training and long distance running should both be included in your routine ok?

I didn't say cut it out comletely

The guy posting his "great boxing workout" didn't mention intervals or tabata which are just as important, and yes I do know who he is the guy is ripped to shreds and knows what hes talking about.

it's not false, long distance running causes muscle loss. don't say things are false when u don't have knowledge about it.

that work out makes me laugh

proof? And funny how you say I have no knowledge about it, when you don't even back up your statement.

wat i do is run up and down 10 flights of stairs 10 times. it works out ur legs and gives crazy endurance. up and down= one 'rep'

Yeah stair running is really good, we have one long ass staircase in WA called jacobs ladder, you know you've done a workout after that.

Notice how this poster hasn't re-posted in his own thread?

And, you think he was being serious? Man, this guys at the wind-up and y'all got hooked!

iv never ead so much ****e in my life!
