    No I don’t even know that’s a thing yet lol, I’m still on the basic fundamentals (footwork, guard, combinations)

      Title says it all. I have pretty good roadwork stamina as I can outrun and outlast all my buddies at the gym by far but for some reason they can last way longer in the ring. I know my technique isn’t too on point since I’ve been boxing for a solid month but does it matter that much? Excess movement or am I just taking too much punishment and it makes me more tired quicker?
      This takes me back a few years. I was at the gym with a mate, who didn't often go to the gym, at the time I was a regular, would always do a flat out non stop hour which didn't bother me and I could have done the same thing for 2 hours, my friend couldn't keep up with me after 5 minutes, and just settled into his own brisk routine.

      A few days later, I play football for my friends team, he lasted the full game no problem, I went on one lung bursting run in the first minute and wanted to come off. I was knackered, even though I was physically fit and strong. I realised that I hadn't ran for at least a year.

      So, there's different types of stamina and your body adapts to your routine.

        Try this outside the ring.
        Throw 10 hard punches, exhale, drop your arms to you sides and let your body relax.
        Do this until you can feel the difference.
        between work and relaxation.
        Next throw 10 hard punches.
        This time keep your hands up as you exhale and relax.
        Keep working on it until you begin to notice where the tightness is and how you can release it.
        You have to be aware of the tension before you're able to let it go. Give it a try, hope it helps.
