I have 0 problem with sacrifice. If that means working 20 hours a day, I'll do it.
My main concern right now is money and paying for training if I want to take things further.
I currently work in property management and this is a 24/7 job, but luckily a lot of these gyms open at like 5 or 6am, when all my tenants are asleep and can't bother me.
It's really nice to know that I can ask this question in this forum and not get attacked. So thanks to all of you. I asked a similar question in another sports forum and some said I was disrespecting those who worked since they were kids.
I was thinking that I should schedule my first session after I get in a little better shape? I ordered a new bike and it arrives next week, and I was planning to do at least 10 miles 6 days a week just to get started.
I said LA but I'm actually in downtown Santa Monica. I found a gym called CMC Pro Boxing that looked good if anyone has ever heard of them. Marcello Crudele runs it.
I lived in Santa Monica in the 80's when the only gym around was VIP in Venice Beach (Hearns trained there for the Hill fight).
Now there is more than a few including Wild Card West (owned by Shandling and Berg) and boxnburn owned by the former British bronze medalist.
I've heard of both those gyms. Box n Burn is around the corner from me, and I've walked past it numerous times. Wild Card West is also pretty close, and I know Canelo Alvarez trains there.
I wasn't sure which one would be better.
