good post. Truth be said though help some of these misguided kids out instead of complaining about their posts. Nice post thought and i agree with you 100%.

You mean thank you for reading.

you're right though. People want a quickfix/shortcut for everything nowadays instead of getting the results they want from dedication and hard work

People even want a quick fix when it comes to knowledge. They think that all these questions about power and weights and plyometrics and training programs can be answered in one sentence. It takes reading ability, patience and a willingness to have some of the ingrained training myths taken away from you, to learn about this stuff.

Edit: Oh, and welcome back Kingdosia. Stick around.

It gets to be a pain in the ass to have the same argument every three days with a new know it all who's never read a book, but heard from a friend who knows someone that your **** turns black and falls off if you lift more than 75 lbs. I guess that's what drove him away in the first place, and it's definitely the reason why I get a little hotheaded once in a while...

haha true. Very True. The books are thick. Scientific and remind one of school or somthing boring. However if you really want to know and really want to be competitive you do have to exersize your mind. After all will one shot at the Heavybag teach you a proper hook? (which I still say thumbs up PUnch ) No you got to exersize the **** out of your mind to.
Whats the equation 75% mental in the ring 25% physical.

sometimes theres some rubbish on here. sometimes threads are easily answered questions. sometimes people just want to share the way they are training. I think in such an individual sport such as boxing, where you have no team to back you up or train with you entirely - its good to have somewhere to ask questions, that you don't want to ask your trainer or sparring partners or gym buddies.

I like training and nutrition and i've learnt a few things here too. Not tons, but i've learnt things and enjoyed trying new stuff out.

OH no doubt. You got guys like Punch Drunk and Bigdozer when he posts that have a ton on knowledge, And ex fighters like Rockin and John Scully. You can pick up a thing or two. It just seems like an overwhelming amount of **** from people who want results with out putting forth the effort. And others who don't understand the many layers of what makes a good fighter.

perhaps your right. I can see why you would be thinking like you do. No need to get down hearted though! It ain't so bad! Just sift through the stuff you don't like!

Generally the threads i avoid are the ones about lifting weights and improving the way your body looks instead of the way it fights/functions and all that stuff. i reckon that stuff is a waste of time. Like the "i can't get a 6 pack" threads.

You. Me. Sparring and drinks, in that order, this fall or winter -- the next time I get to L.A. to record. Deal? Just lemme lay my horn tracks first before you bust up my face.
