Joe Calzaghe's training... if your interested

[JuicyJuice]

He still trains in his dad's shed (as he has done for 25 years), nothing fancy and in the middle of nowhere.

He does very little sparring at all. The reason he does hardly any sparring is because of his vulnerability to injure his hands/wrists/arms, but also because he simply does not need it! He has so much natural ability that he doesn't need to spar, and that is a complete rariety for a fighter at the level he performs. He just relies on natural ability.

For training he warms up with shadow boxing then works on floor-to-ceiling bag and focus pads, always working on speed and accuracy. That's his main workout - floor-to-ceiling bag and focus pads. Then he might do some speedball, some skipping, he limits heavybag work to once or twice a week due to fragile hands. No weight-training, just bodyweight exercises. Also takes some medicine ball hits to the body. Ofcourse, he runs in the mornings too (in the valley's, in the middle of nowhere).

when does he stop having sex??

[JuicyJuice]

He runs six miles in the morning for six days a week, all year. He eats what he wants when he hasn't got a fight coming up. Then eight weeks before a fight, he trains for a few hours in the afternoon doing the gym work I mentioned above and makes sure he diets strictly to help him make weight (lots of vegetables, pasta - high carbohydrate, low fat). The gym work gets more and more intense over the eight weeks, his last session is four days before the fight and that is supposed to be his hardest session.

Ask Frank Warren

[T to the T]

Ask Frank Warren

Frank claims Joe has an injury and therefore is pulled out of having sex for a couple of months

Hi I thought the old shed he used to train in was pulled down, or was that the gym for the other boxers? I had heard he rarely spars. Makes a mockery out of needing to have a muscle-bound toned body when you can do that to an opponent. If Lacy wasn't so sure of himself, and less arrogant I might have had more sympathy, but humility is not a word many US boxers have in their vocabulary, like Naz, who always says "respect" but never shows it. He took a serious lesson he won't ever forget. Did we hear the rematch word? He will cringe every time it is replayed!
