2010/1/1 - I begin my training to become a boxer. ANY TIPS

[Kiid Dynamite]

go to a boxing gym asap

straight up, theres too many dummies out there who wanna train themselves..

trainers can see ur mistakes, improve u etc

u gtta hit a boxing gym, learn the damn basics. thats the most important thing, basics. look at bhop hes mastered the basics thats why at 44 hes beating younger fights, nothing to do with power or speed. its the skill of basics

from then on, spar, shadow box properly,... n do what all boxers do

Not dissing anyone but I don't think bench press does anything for punching power, I'd do explosive squats n push ups, read up on jack dempseys : falling step, I used thus to increase my punching power it's very good...other than that just get in the ring goodluck

Ok here it is


I finally bought a 100 lb heavy bag
I have a speed bag
Skipping rope
Boxing gloves

Tale of the tape

21 years old
5'11
247 lbs
native american descent
i cant bench press a whole lot, which i find that as an advantage to go to a lower weight class. i can bench around 70 lbs

I figure im going to train on the heavy bag 3 mins and 1 min rest for 5 rounds to start off then work my way up to 12 rounds

And i play basketball everyday to help keep up my fitness



Any other tips...thank you

*I DONT HAVE A BENCH PRESS TO BENCH ANYMORE. THATS WHY IM SO WEAK

i do boxing,weight lifting and running...just keep on working on your training methods, also do weight lifting...atm i can lift 75kg so thats alrite for someone my age i guess....and do running...also remember to never eat any crappy food or junk food the day you go boxing trust me you will regret it like i did on my 1st day of boxing...anyways gd luck

Get to a gym, where the hell do people get off expecting to train themselves. ******est **** I ever heard.

[southcentralcar]

first you should start losing weight, man. And lifting weights isnt the best option to do that.

coulddve guessed you 15yo. This thread is not ''how much can you bench press ?''

This sounds like the same dude called Roy Jones as his name or whatever a few months ago, actually I all but guarantee it's the same dude. He copied reed's sig and reed got mad at him but they worked it out, said he was native american and training to become a boxer. listen, my dog can bench 70 lbs, go back under ur ****in bridge u troll.
