skipping for stamina, press-ups, heavybag for strength. remember, most boxers rarely use dumbells because having high mass of muscles is counterproductive

I do low weights just to get my muscles to tierd :lol1: Just so its less notivable in a fight (or sparring as is the case for me atm)

Skipping helps a lot for stamina. Burpees also.

What I do at home is jump rope, arm rotations, a lot of ab work, squats (no weight, but a lot of repetitions, pushups, shadowboxing, and pullups.

Good luck on your fight.

lol, you choose the year 14-15 to lift weights and then not do it again.
are you trying to stunt growth?
ive been lifting lightly for a year or so, but its infrequent and light weight. what you want to do is shadow box with 2kgs and stuff.

Yeah, I really want to gain weight. And i want to be 150 by the time i turn 15 in December. Im 125-130 right now.

But anyways you should skip rope to build stamina, and use heavy bag for strength.

go to a 100m track or the length of a footy pitch or something and do 4x4. thats sprint the first lenght and jog back (that counts as 1) do it 4 times then have a 60 second rest after 60 secs do 4 more and so on.....

to make a decent post
i do 200 crunches/bicycle crunches/ whatever every 3 days, to give them time to recover
weight train (shoulders,triceps,chest,biceps and weighted squats) about twice a week
and do regular press ups, dips etc and run at gym

im waiting for punchdrunk to blow you fools up..

what boxers do you know that dont use dumbells??
-snatches
-pushpress
-db squats
-db lunges
-db squat and press
the list goes on and on.. if you want some serious info, you must do some reading.. **** it. not some, alot!

PM me if you want a really good book that intergrates DB movements and bodyweight exercises..

weights when used properly increase speed and explosiveness. period
