Newbie to boxing

I am 16 and kind of chunky. A little fat. I want to box but being chunky makes me not want to. What do you think?

if you ask me all 16 year olds these days are chunky, its just the times. I'm 28 and i went to a local swimming pool this summer and i was the most in shape person there (in comparison to a bunch of kids), and i don't really diet or anything i just lift weights. So i think that is a horrible excuse to keep you from doing something and i'd bet that you wouldn't be chunky for long if you did. And whether or not you kick ass or get yours kicked its all good learning at your age. I admire your comment, and i think you'd find more admiration will come your way if you don't let anything stand in the way of what you want to do.

i think you should. the training will make you lose all those extra kilos and you will slowly be getting into good shape. so, dont worry and just go for it, you have to at least try =P

good luck ^^

Seriously? You don't know the answer to your own question?

Post this in the Training section, the guys in there will give u advice on losing weight. Boxing is a sport Id advise only if u really wanna do it, peeps who just go for the hell of it get hurt! But give it a try and see how u like it
